Yes monero provide more privacy but the anonymity bitcoin can provide will be enough if you are not involved in some illegal activity. But if you need full privacy yes monero will be good choice than bitcoin.

In fact, fiat provides better privacy than bitcoin.   Several years ago, I wrote a book, put it up for free, and provided a link for people to donate some bitcoin if they liked it.  It was downloaded several hundreds of times per week, and I never got the slightest donation.  What is, at some point, embarrassing, is that everyone can see this.  They just have to check the bitcoin address, and find out that there has only been one transaction to it (my own, where I tested the link). 
Worse, as people know my name (it's on the book), I didn't realize that they could trace back my initial test donation to several addresses of my wallet.  In fact, me putting up this link made much of my own bitcoin handling visible to all of the world, with my name attached to it (through return addresses and links).

Bitcoin is a privacy nightmare.  Fiat is much better at that.  Only your bank knows.

wanna "full untraceable" ?
if you send your zcash from t address to Z
the transaction will be full untraceable not only mixing like monero Roll Eyes

example
https://explorer.zcha.in/transactions/1f74ab1516a597986ebcd9003d31a397ab864c710bc43162526d085a1512baa4

If it had been compulsory, I'd also have preferred zcash technically over monero.  But you're only mixing with those other users which also chose to go anonymous.  So the very fact of going anonymous (an act which in itself is traceable when you convert your coins to notes) is an indication you want to hide something.


in fact im never use that's feature, someday i just want to try how mixing work, try use bitmixer.io, but for me its not powerfull, better im using coinbase, no fee free transaction Roll Eyes
today i didnt need mix my bitcoin or anything.

i just give alternative , zcoin have higher security to untracable transaction than using monero.

Monero is more anonymous than bitcoin, which is only pseudo-anonymous, that is a fact. But do you seriously need more anonymous coin?
It won't be ever pushed to the level of acceptance bitcoin received, not when we are still obliged to follow legal rules and subjugate ourselves to AML/KYC law.

I'm always baffled when I read that.  If you want to abide by AML/KYC, why not use fiat ?

My idea is that bitcoin's original design was meant to keep coins private.  If you read Satoshi's paper, he goes through some length about that.  Unfortunately, pseudonymity has turned out to be a very weak protection of privacy because of the information that propagates from one transaction to another.  So my idea is that monero is a technical improvement over bitcoin who failed to deliver technically on one of the design goals.

It's the real deal.  Superior to Bitcoin in most ways. Private. Secure. Untraceable.

Wonderful GUI wallet with ringCT permanently enabled.

Privacy shouldn't be an option like other coins. It should be inherent. Just like your privacy.

anonymous is not necessary for a cryptocurrence, monero can't replace bitcoin even in deep web.

But if you want to use Monero as Dark Market token, yes, it is better than BTC for that purpose.

In the last days you hear a lot about Monero.

Especially in the Deep Web.

There are people who claim that it is more anonymous than Bitcoin.

That transactions cannot be crawled.

 Huh  Huh  Huh  Huh

Is this it?

What do you think?
I don't ever get the confirmation about its rumor. but if we try to compare bitcoin and monero and both are in the different area. If you try to pick the anonymity and monero is the winner.
