If there is a possibility that all (or almost all) transactions could potentially have their privacy reversed then it will be as you said most concerning from a user perspective.

Even if that's true, it still depends on who you're hiding from. If you don't want your local barista to know you're rich in Bitcoin, you're still good. There's still no blockchain evidence linking your addresses.

I wonder what the percentage of chipmixer users were using it to hide from their local barista Tongue

If there is a possibility that all (or almost all) transactions could potentially have their privacy reversed then it will be as you said most concerning from a user perspective. We do not know whether the Chipmixer retained user data while claiming anonymity but the details will be known as and when the law enforcement agencies release it.

If this really is true, then we have to wait some time for this information to be revealed.

Because now, the authorities must be carefully analyzing every detail of these records and checking all onchain movements, as well as comparing them with addresses that they have referenced as suspicious. This will involve long hours (days/weeks) of analysis, which will certainly lead to some time without news about this process.

At this point, it's no longer worth getting desperate. I believe that for the majority of users, it will not be something to worry about, because the authorities will be focused on big criminals who already know that they use Bitcoin as a way to finance their schemes.

You're right. There will probably not be any news unless a major group that is still operating are found from the data collected. Otherwise, no information will be revealed. I believe that anyone who isn't apart of an organization that deserves justice shouldn't be overly concerned or scared. Privacy is a human right. If you aren't a criminal, don't be too concerned about the data being leaked. It would be a big act of tyranny for authorities to go after innocent people who just wanted some peace of mind about their privacy before spending their Bitcoin.
