Whichever one introduces staking first will win.
Bitcoin, Monero, or Z-cash.
All three are solid as money, are genuinely recognized, have tools to use them, while Bitcoin has the strongest network effect of the three I would say the currency aspect wasn’t fleshed out.
It was a proof of concept, one that worked well until it didn’t, which like all good technologies unfortunately must eventually be replaced.
Bitcoin proved, and laid out a decentralized digital currency could exist.
But without staking, and privacy it’s tough to say it survives the test of time.
Not saying staking makes, or breaks a coin since we have coins like ethereum, and polka dot that have staking capabilities but lack of usage, but on the major ones that are used as currency staking could be a game changer.
