The most consistent mistake I’ve seen with casual Monero peeps, is the notion that chainhopping will give you privacy. Short answer: It probably wont. At least not the way you’re thinking about doing it, PseudoAnon.
I get it. You need [cuckcoin] to pay some pleb that doesnt take XMR. Your best chance to maintain privacy, is to already have a fat stash of XMR that you use regularly. Swap into [cuckcoin] from that wallet/stash.
(You do have a nice fat stash of Monero don’t you, Anon?)
AFTER swapping from XMR, top up your stash at IRREGULAR intervals/amounts. DO NOT immediately top up your XMR wallet for the exact same amount. This significantly reduces attack vectors like correlating: amounts, timings, and the probablistic weaknesses with ring signatures.
Exchanges, swap services, multisig arbitration based swaps, wallets with a swap provider… ANY central coordinator of bids/offers (possibly even atomic swaps)… Assume theyre sharing data with chain analysis. They might not be, but you need to mitigate the risk in case they are.
