Lately I've been looking into on-chain privacy issues, and the more I look, the more I think ordinary users shouldn't have too many illusions: you want "others not to see," but the compliance side wants "to be able to track you if something goes wrong." Honestly, it's more like trying to find a usable gap between two lines rather than putting on a cloak and becoming invincible.
What's more awkward is that now there are a bunch of testnet incentives, and points are being earned rapidly, with groups guessing every day whether the mainnet will issue tokens. I was also impulsive and followed for a while, but then I realized that everyone's discussion wasn't about "who does privacy actually help, where are the boundaries," but about "how to leave no trace and still claim rewards"... I got a bit fed up and unfollowed. Anyway, I’ll lower my expectations first: privacy tools can reduce casual observers, but don’t expect them to help you fight the rules. If you really want to use them, you need to think carefully about what you're protecting. That’s all for now.
