Also, Just because you have a wallet with a ton of coins, doesn't mean you'll only get the big transactions. You can still stake a large quantity on a small transaction. Isn't that the point of weight?

you are correct. But the higher the value of the transaction, the less nodes that can accommodate the PoSA tx. if you want to send 10 CLOAK PoSA, I am sure there will thousands of wallets that can handle that trade. but if you want to send 1k CLOAK, there will be considerably less wallets, which means the 1k wallets will see that action more often and get nice fees from it.

But unlike DRK, everyone can play, as long as you have CLOAK in your wallet and opt-in to be a PoSA node.

If this theory is correct, anyone with a sizeable trade will run the risk of NOT being anonymous. So if i were a bag holder, or a darkweb guy and wanted to hide hundreds of thousands of dollars from the network, i would have to do hundreds of smaller transactions to guarantee anonymity.

I would expect that the devs have taken into consideration the larger transactions and not limiting who can and cannot accomodate those.

or the price of CLOAK goes up and you don't need that many CLOAK to conduct PoSA tx. If my PoSA holds 10k CLOAK and its worth 1 million USD, then I am sure that node can handle 99% of all PoSA tx.

I agree. You'll be able to handle MOST. But, if this is the way the POSA works, it wouldn't be 100% anon. So, i'd have to lean on the side of caution and say this isn't completely accurate. I think the thought process you provided is great, i just think there's more to it. Will have to wait and see what the devs say.

so what exactly doesn't make it 100% anon?
