Lately, I've seen cross-chain bridges get hacked and oracles report absurd prices with errors. Everyone's first reaction is "wait for confirmation"... To put it simply, the blockchain isn't an extralegal zone, nor is it inherently anonymous. I think ordinary users should have more realistic expectations about privacy: wallet addresses don't have your name attached, but your behavior patterns are too easy to piece together. If someone really wants to investigate, they probably can.

So should I pursue 100% privacy?
Not really, it's more about not overestimating "privacy tools = immunity from responsibility."

My current approach is somewhat conservative: avoid using flashy bridges for large amounts, wait several blocks for transactions, and if there's a compliant entry point, don't force the issue. After all, the cycle is still long, and taking it slow isn't a big deal. What I really want to protect might not be "stealth," but rather to prevent exposing my entire on-chain life due to a moment of haste.
