Are you sure? If you lose privacy, that sucks but it reverts back to bitcoin of today. If you lose inflation guarantees, then it doesn't matter if you have privacy because the whole system becomes worthless.
I mean, you have to keep your savings somewhere, right? You need savings for when you retire. And no alternative offers 100% anonymity, so in that case you would risk your anonymity for the security of your savings, right?
I’m not saying cryptocurrency will comprise even a minor part of your retirement savings any time soon, but perhaps in 10/20/30 years?
The problem is that non-private cryptocurrencies are permanent records of financial activity. I would rather risk soundness now than privacy forever, especially when there are post-quantum paths forward and our current assumptions are reasonable.
