Recently, I’ve seen everyone worried about unlocking calendars, such as staking unlocks and team unlocks, feeling like every time the clock strikes, they’re about to face “sell pressure education.” But honestly, this kind of anxiety and on-chain privacy issues are actually the same kind of thing: we always want a definitive answer—who is selling, where is the money coming from, am I going to be targeted. The reality is, on-chain transparency is the default, privacy can only be “as much as possible,” compliance is also “drawing lines as we go,” ordinary users shouldn’t expect to be completely invisible, nor should they expect regulators to always turn a blind eye.
My own expectations are simpler: separate addresses when possible, don’t put salary, yield farming, trading, and lending all in one wallet; avoid long-term unlimited approvals if you can; when using tools that seem to have privacy features, just treat them as potentially unreliable and that they might suddenly stop working someday, don’t over-leverage your positions. The rest is up to time and mindset—trying to control the market’s mirror… forget it.
