Regarding your last point: it’s different because it’s relatively trivial to create as many wallets as you want and or use a form of ring sharing. That allows an individual to express financial visibility and transparency in the way they see fit.
- johnwheeler 8y agoThank you. Assuming you buy something that requires shipping, there would still be some sort of paper trail though, right? If so, this assertion would only stand when the goods were digital or counterparties were physically present and wearing masks.
