*not anonymity
Let's not kid ourselves here, Bitcoin is not *anonymous* like Monero is. It is at best pseudonymous, otherwise we would not have to worry about all these blockchain analysis scrapers compiling data about our transactions.
Fortunately for all of us, Bitcoin is not anonymous in the true sense of the word, because the question is whether it would be at this level of recognition and
"permission" today. It's no secret that practically from the earliest days, the world's most powerful three-letter agencies have been working on user identification and transaction methods - and they certainly don't do that because they're bored in life.
Bitcoin has become a threat since the Genesis block, but with time the idea of cryptocurrency is being suppressed, and the idea of digital gold and trading through futures & spot ETFs and through CEXs enables more and more control over those who use it.
Mixing bitcoins does not make them anonymous either, it just makes them a little more pseudonymous. It is a limitation of the Bitcoin protocol.
That's right, we also had the opportunity to see it on concrete examples of someone who posted a topic on BTT about how he managed to break some mixers, although all but CM at that time. Has anything changed today in the way mixers work - probably not much, but as I already wrote, a little imagination after mixing can make things more complicated for those who analyze the blockchain.
