To add to this, and being a privacy freak, I can't conceive the idea of having a unique address that could be easily tied to one person/user. I'm fully aware that all addresses that are posted in here are searchable in some forums tools (such as Ninjastic[1]) but having a unique addresses makes things worse.

I could always start using bc1qdeckardxs8jqev30gt6m796spdshr23tt552k2 just to confuse things. Wink

That would be quite a slyest disguise indeed, entropy is always a nice addition to one's privacy. I guess I would have to employ the Voight-Kampff test[1] to prevent replicants Grin

While I do reckon the "vanity" of having one custom address, you are right - there's nothing preventing anyone in creating an address that looks like tied to a particular user. This could lead people in falling into scams more easily...
