This is a great article that could lead to a white paper on anonymity and distributed ledgers. The short end is that a wallet is theoretically tied a n physical devices. All of which have an ID in some form. E.g. an IP, an email, Mac Address, phone number. And the Pass/SAAS/dApps all audit this kind of information in some way for financial reasons. Or to present a dashboard in a UI with a wallets ledger. So I pose the question. Is it really anonymous?
