the other open secret is that you just create a new identity in an isolated sub namespace you ring fence all the addresses in that space with Monero over VPN or TOR: Monero swapped to Bitcoin, Monero swapped to Ether, Monero swapped to Tether (ERC20/OMNI/TRC20), a general balance in Monero since merchants accept that too, and transact there. Swap back out to Monero if you need a withdrawal. Pencil pushers can track addresses on one transparent blockchain all fuckin day till your grandma gets tainted coins after Thanksgiving and all her accounts closed by some paranoid compliance officer and overzealous dumbass public servant, while the rest of us get every good and service we expected anonymously.
