I'm planing of using the Bitwage service in order to earn bitcoin. And I'm looking at what I can do to enhance my privacy.
They support xpubkey:

But I'm confused. In which sense that gives me privacy ?
Can someone explain me? I'm aware that I provide KYC to Bitwage, so it's known that I earn bitcoin and how much, but is it possible to hide on which addresses are my bitcoin located?
