Cryptocurrency membership expansion brings increasing scrutiny toward the issue of privacy as well as anonymity. Personally, the privacy feature is one of the reasons I prefer using crypto for my financial transactions. No third party interfering on how I spend my money. What are the importance of anonymity and privacy in cryptocurrency?

I think it is the anonymity and privacy that makes cryptocurrency what it is today. People want to have full control over their finance without government interference. Anonymity gives cryptocurrency users ability to use their money without government restrictions and interference. Secondly, cryptocurrency is synonymous with speed. If you want to send money anywhere in the world, you will bypass all the unnecessary government procedures.

The balance though is that if crypto enthusiasts wants the crypto system to be integrated into mainstream financial systems, they should be ready to give up some of the anonymity that the crypto space already has. Governments would want to regulate crypto exchanges to some extent of crypto would go mainstream.

I think that cryptocurrency was built to be anonymous. This is why many people rely on it. There are various private coins such as Monero that can help shape the cryptocurrency community that aim to be anonymous.

I don't think anonymity is only for shady moves. Privacy is a financial dignity to each and every one of us . I dont need third party analyzing every transaction I make. Yes, full anonymity attracts bad actors and that is what brings the regulation pressure we see around crypto. This is to counter it.
