Lately I've been thinking about on-chain privacy again. To be honest, ordinary people shouldn't expect to be "completely invisible." Wallet addresses don't include your name, but your behavior can reveal a lot: which pools you've traded in, who you've interacted with, how often you move assets—over time, it all adds up. The compliance aspect is also quite delicate. My expectation is that platforms and entry points will increasingly require you to prove who you are, but on-chain itself, it's hard to make everything perfectly clean-cut.



Recently, everyone has been complaining about miner/validator income, MEV, and unfair ordering. I can understand that—just by confirming a transaction, it feels like someone saw your cards in advance... Privacy and fairness are actually two sides of the same coin. Anyway, I now treat "leaving fewer traces" as a lifestyle habit: don't stack all your assets in one address, avoid linking social accounts unless necessary, and slow down important operations—think one step ahead. To put it more romantically, leave some fog.
