With UK making KYC mandatory in many more ways, and coming soon to a place near you, it is super important to carefully consider the many ways we can protect our privacy and anonymity.

There are many privacy coins i like, such as #Zano, #EpicCash ($EPIC), #Firo, #Beam, #Hush #ConcealNetwork ($CCX), #Monero (XMR), #PRivaCY ($PRCY), #Ryo & #Ghost.
All of the above are full privacy chains.
There are also chains which support both transparent & privacy transactions such as #Dash & #LitecoinMWEB (Mimble Wimble Extension Blocks). These are arguably not as private as for full privacy chains, yet they can make it easier to interact with traditional finance systems.
Either way, taking steps to extract ourselves from ever tightening nets of the powers that shouldn't be is essential if we want to be free.
Don't forget Free & Open Source Password Managers, such as Bitwarden, FOSS encrypted messengers like SimpleX, Matrix Protocol & XMPP.
Also needed is encrypted email like tuta.com, VPN's like NYM, & Proton.
Then there are operating systems, eg Linux instead of Windows, GrapheneOS instead of stock Android for example.
It may seems overwhelming all we need to do be free from the technocratic state, but we can take 1 step at a time. Probably the first best step would be to get proton Mail & Proton VPN free plans, then download Bitwarden (or another good FOSS alternative) before acquiring Privacy Coins.
Feel free to ask me questions.
