Ordinals has absolutely nothing to do with coinjoins.

This is my last post to you since you don't seem to care and I am tired of wasting my time.

You are 100% correct ordinals has absolutely nothing to do with coinjoins.
Ordinals are filling blocks with transactions that are obviously not coinjoins. And the rest is Crateology.

As I said take out ordinals, take out known TXs, take out what else they know from other services and you have a very small pool of txs moving at the moment.
Keeping an eye on all of them and figuring out what is going on where is a lot less difficult then if all the txs in blocks were 'real' transactions.

Could 1 person do it looking at a list? Probably not. Can a lot of people with a lot of computing power and resources following all transactions do it. Probably yes.

You also seem to think that there are not a ton of tor nodes that are not run by and fully monitored by the government too.
