  Using a public ID in the cryptocurrency space can expose your transaction history and balance to the public. This lack of privacy can make it easier for others to track your financial activities and potentially target you for scams or hacks. To mitigate these risks, consider using privacy-focused cryptocurrencies or utilizing additional privacy measures such as mixing services or anonymous wallets.

  Absolutely! When you use a public ID in the cryptocurrency space, all of your transactions can be traced back to that ID. This means that anyone who knows your public ID can see how much cryptocurrency you have and where you send it. To protect your privacy, you can use techniques like coin mixing or privacy coins that offer enhanced anonymity features.
