It’s okay to be naive! The video talks about what data your bank has and how that gets used, as a security professional I know how all of this data is tied together plus the other data (assuming you don’t vote either?), and you don’t think there is anything tied to you so cool. Have fun with that. Keep pushing crypto.

Of course there is data tied to me. My bank sees who my employer is and everywhere I withdrawal money from an ATM. They don't see my purchases.

And you're talking to a security professional.
