Disadvantages: - not interstellar, - no dynamic block size (does not scale well), - no fungibility (therefore taxable), - no privacy (account balance/transactions can be observed), - no incentives to mine after 2140 (experiment). Advantages: - 21 million is fixed (acts like a financial black hole). - Satoshi Nakamoto also implemented Monero under the synonym Niklas von Saberhagen.
