Lately, people keep asking, "Is on-chain privacy just doing whatever you want?" I think ordinary users should lower their expectations first; on-chain is not anonymous, it's a "public ledger that can be traced," but whether it can be traced to who and how deep depends on the cost and motivation. Compliance is also quite realistic; exchanges' deposit and withdrawal channels, stablecoin pathways, and similar points are basically being monitored. When a serious investigation happens, many "privacy tools" at most help you expose less to outsiders, but they can't necessarily prevent professional attribution.
Recently, there's been a lot of talk about social mining and fan tokens—"attention is mining." The discussions in groups are quite lively, but I see on-chain traffic more like copying and recycling. Whether attention can be condensed into value, I can't be sure. Anyway, don't treat posting as a get-out-of-jail-free card. My approach is simple: minimize permissions when possible, use address layering, and don't string together identity clues on the same chain... Take it slow if needed, at least keep a stable mindset.
