The whole point of me making certain payments with crypto is for it not to be attached to my name. obviously the crypto service company has my cc details. whats the most privacy friendly one? ty :)

    Im not a big crypto person, but ive owned some in the past.
    Isnt any reputable wallet pretty much the same? From my understanding, especially when using something like monero, the privacy falls apart at the exchange, not the wallet.

      Most people use custodial wallets (they don’t really hold the coins) and multiple wallets have had hacks (or ““hacks””) where a lot of user funds were stolen.

      I personally like

      • Electrum for Bitcoin
      • Feather for Monero
      • Guarda for Ethereum based coins because it allows you to generate a new address each time.

      The exchange and the wallet become the same for a lot of people that never really move money between their personal bank and places like coin base.
