Just allow all crypto and get done with this censorship of you selecting Bitcoin as choice for everyone.

The comments on the youtube video linked here cover the community's sentiment well. "Privacy by default." Bitcoin does not provide that. Monero is the way forward for Proton Wallet, or another coin that protects transaction and balance data.

The ProtonVPN General Manager said that Monero support for Proton would be on the summer roadmap if enough people signed a petition like this

Privacy-oriented solutions like Monero are a must if I am ever going to use Proton Wallet.

I am not convinced by the argument presented in the Opt Out podcast regarding the network effect. That said, I am also amenable to Bitcoin-oriented privacy solutions that already exist. As it stands though, this service does not make much sense to me as a user.

I understand it's still early in its development, just putting my voice behind enhanced privacy.

No one wants to listen to your hour long podcast to get the answer. Just post it here. That's the entire purpose of this platform.

Few wallets support Monero because of its extremely privacy-focus design. It would be exciting to see Proton Wallet supports the #1 privacy coin.

Yeah Monero!

If you want to actually improve privacy 'just' add Lightning with Bolt12 (already in LDK).
Stuff like monero cannot provide good privacy and the users lack fundamental understanding of how privacy in payment systems works. In addition, these tokens have questionable premines and regular hard forks, so they aren't even censorship resistant. They will go away again as soon as a new fancy marketing coin shows up but bitcoin is designed forever.
If any shitcoins get added to Proton Wallet I'd be unable to recommend it anymore and would be quite disappointed.

With privacy being the cornerstone of Proton’s mission, I would abandon ship immediately if they compromised it by catering to shitcoin bagholders.
XMR is by no means more private, given its paper-thin order book for swaps compared to a well-executed CoinJoin. Stop shilling trash—we’re fixing the money. Shitcoins lack fundamentals and, therefore, a future. Winner takes all—go barter elsewhere!

Guys, I'm leaving Proton and joining Gmail because of, you know, of course, the network effect. If Proton someday replaces Gmail as the largest community, I'll consider Proton Mail.

Being that every transaction on the Bitcoin blockchain is logged, it seems counterintuitive to be a "privacy-oriented" company, but not having any support for the biggest private cryptocurrency. Your company preaches "listening to your community" but whenever your community wants a change or feature added you respond with a link to an hour-long podcast that essentially says "we don't think Monero is good enough."
That is simply unacceptable.
We expect better out of your company. We chose you because you are trying to do something different, something better. But you have got to listen to your users.

I really want to be able to use the wallet, but I don't feel comfortable using bitcoin, especially since most of the organizations/communities I'm using crypto for much prefer Monero (and some even require it). Just listen, guys.

Don't see the point of a privacy-focused wallet that doesn't support Monero.

Add Monero and FIRO: https://firo.org/about/research/

Monero has better privacy built in, but it has two critical flaws in my eyes:
- XMR supply: unknown
- XMR security: can be 51% attacked at any time by any large corporation
These two factors alone don't make it feasable as a currency for me. I really think we should build privacy solutions on Bitcoin, some (like CoinJoin and Lightning) are very promising already today. I'm sure Proton will find ways to improve both privacy and usability of bitcoin transactions

Yeah please do it asap

No only do we need to be able to to buy, send and receive XMR we need to be able to to pay for proton with it!

Monero's afaik the most private crypto out there.

Monero is under scrutiny from the government. It’s tokenomics are not acceptable for real world use.

Lets be clear, if you guys want to focus on privacy, BTC is not a choice since is a privacy nightmare... in the other hand Monero (XMR) is just best and plenty of privacy services uses it since knows how useful it is.

I find it quite baffling that Proton started with BitCoin as it is *not even close* to Monero in terms of being usable as a currency/cash replacement
