Privacy in crypto

Anybody paying attention to the privacy narrative in crypto?

Yes, they're still in the trend and despite that in the past years they were chased by the regulators and have been delisted for so many exchanges everywhere. It looks that the majority of the community never forgotten them and the pump that has happened recently with monero gives the idea that they're never out of the narrative for this bull run that we are in. So, with that attention that everyone is giving to the privacy coins. What are you up to? do you plan to buy the most popular ones? because if you're interested in the entirety of it, not all of the privacy coins are getting the attention that the main and big ones get.

I'm checking out a few and doing my own research. I'm not just investing in stocks, I'm also in infra which is key in this aspect. Personally, I'm looking at iExec, and it's a cool project. (DYOR)

I think that I have seen that project before but haven't looked into it deeply. I'll see if that will interest me and if it has got some good infra or use case that it has got. Another tip is that if you're going to reply to each reply, you don't post it individually. Just put all of the replies you've quoted on one post and that's already enough. Mods will come to merge all of those posts replies you've made for sure.

It's a niche market of crypto and there are some people who are interested in it, and that's about it. Sort of like the meme people, although most of memes are not banned anywhere, so meme people have more chance to grow but it is still a niche, or the NFT people for example, it is a niche, it is not a general all audience thing like bitcoin or ethereum or Solana, it is more just popular with a group of people that's it, a small group of people. Hence, we are not really seeing it be that difficult for most people to ignore it.

Anyone coming into the crypto space should first align and know well what privacy is and how it can help them throughout their journey in crypto. Cryptocurrency itself when first introduced by Satoshi made emphasis on privacy and security, so not paying attention to that is like you already having a failed foundation in your journey in the crypto space. Privacy is everything in crypto because if you can’t keep that, you’ll most likely face a lot of troubles throughout the process of you becoming a more cryptoneur in the crypto world. Decentralization encompasses privacy and that’s why Bitcoin was built on that basis.

here we are paying attention, but I don't think there's full privacy in crypto currency, even with the fact that it's decentralized. What I mean by this is, for example when you transact or sent a crypto coin to someone, the transaction history is recorded and stored in the exchange database, with or without your permission. And some exchanges even makes this public and anyone could easier track your transactions. Now with this kind of stuffs am not sure there's full privacy.

There are specific investors that looks upon with the privacy coins. You're right that they're like the communities that you've mentioned and if a privacy coin has pumped, they'll also be there on that moment. But it's easier to look at those memecoins because it seems a larger market and that's why they've been saturated. I think that the time will come that from the memecoins community, they'll also be looking to the privacy coins. They won't care if they are for the profits and not after the anonymity.
