Everyone understands this: the so-called “privacy” on-chain is mostly about hiding you among a bunch of addresses, not about making you disappear. If we’re being truly strict, the transaction times, the route/path information, and even the delay at the moment you click confirm can all be pieced back together by someone… Last night, I even slipped and used the same address to jump back and forth between two DApps—just thinking about it is a bit awkward. As for my expectations around compliance, it’s: don’t count on there never being questions about where your money came from—just hope you’re not hit by indiscriminate sweeps. The same thing applies to the recent uproar caused by funding rates getting extremely extreme; I don’t know whether it will reverse or if a bubble will burst, but on-chain everything is recorded. Even after the emotions fade, the traces remain. In any case, I can split addresses, so I split them; if I can move more slowly, I move more slowly—so I can sleep more soundly.
