Recently, someone discussed on-chain privacy, and frankly, ordinary users shouldn't expect to be "invisible." On-chain records are inherently public ledgers; what you can do more is reduce the chances of being easily exposed, like not linking your salary address, airdrop address, and DeFi addresses all in one path. Don't save on transaction fees to the point of exposing yourself completely. Regarding compliance, I expect it to be more practical: exchanges depositing and withdrawing funds, fiat on-ramps, stablecoin issuers—if someone really wants to investigate, they can't avoid it. The so-called privacy tools are more about increasing analysis costs, not a get-out-of-jail-free card.
By the way, looking at this time's main public chain upgrades, everyone in the group is guessing whether projects will migrate. My first reaction isn't "migrate or not," but that migrating comes with several hidden costs: bridges, chain swaps, re-authorizations, slippage, and a bunch of small gas fees accumulating, ultimately leading to real profits being stolen cleanly. Anyway, my current approach is to minimize the paths I take, keep addresses separate, regularly clear authorizations, don't treat privacy as a shield, and don't use compliance as a scare tactic.
