Everyone must do their own due diligence for mixing services, but here's a good place to start: https://bitmixlist.org

You have to take privacy into your own hands. Monero is ideal, but in terms of Bitcoin, privacy is a nightmare unless you take proactive measures.
I never talked to Satoshi, but I'm pretty sure that he didn't intend to create banking 2.0 and its subsequent monetary ecosystem requiring humiliating selfies for KYC laws and approval from banking entities, just to open crypto accounts and withdraw funds. Bitcoin users certainly haven't helped in this regard, as they've chased profits over any remaining cypherpunk, anti-bank ethos, but this is to be expected.
The Bitcoin devs, however, have always been in a position to do more. They pay lip service to privacy sometimes, but they've made it clear that they have taken the path of least resistance and abide pretty much any banking regulation, no matter how draconian or unjust, rather than create a privacy-respecting ecosystem outside of the banking system. They could have implemented privacy-centric features into Bitcoin Core if they really wanted to, but that ship sailed long ago. No one expects them to go full Monero, but they've had opportunities (native mweb, native coinjoin, etc) to increase Bitcoin privacy, but they are content to create banking 2.0 instead. They have not supported privacy advocacy within the law. They have not pursued lawful means to circumvent privacy-invasive analytics and regulations.
So it's up to you. And you have to learn it on your own.
You can always use mixers as explained here: https://bitmixlist.org
Tails OS, which has a Bitcoin Electrum client built in, routes all traffic through Tor (but it won't help you if you're dumb).
You can use exchanges and services that don't require AML / KYC information: https://kycnot.me
Also keep in mind that chain analytics isn't just about IP addresses, but also patterns like timing, amounts, and other correlating data.

Sorry for the late follow-up closing this auction.
[QUESTION] Most common private key types for BTC collectibles
I see all these various Bitcoin collectibles, either pre-loaded with private keys, or you load them yourself.
So for all the experts who know this stuff better than I do, what private key format is most commonly used for Bitcoin collectibles?
The mini private key format? WIF? The raw private key? Is there a standard that most collectibles use, or does it vary from item to item? Have seed phrases or brainwallet formats ever been used? Did the old Casascius coins set the standard?
Very curious about all this, as I never followed the collectible Bitcoin market until recently.

AUCTION TERMS
Item for Sale: one 100 gram 9999 fine "Feingold" Degussa gold bar

Winner will also receive a free 2011 redeemed Casascius coin of my choice.
Auction End Time: Friday, November 22nd 9:00:00 PM EST, 02:00:00 AM GMT
No sniping, no escrow, no exceptions, sold "as is".
Shipping: Ships from the US, free to anywhere in the world, tracking number provided. Please allow up to 1 week for me to ship.
Buyer is responsible for any and all customs/duties/taxes.
Payment Address: bc1qh04aj3ev2apxlhhq2zrk4hnwj6yxc5fw3nvp9m
Payment Due: Within 6 hours, with at least 1 confirmation on the blockchain.
I reserve the right to reject bids from, or deny sale to, any individual for any reason.
The gold bar and original receipt.
This is a serious auction, but I doubt it will gain any traction considering the high price and strict auction terms. I still thought I'd try here first before selling at the local coin shop, which I'm not too fond of.
Also, a number of my previous auctions included tracking info when I shipped them out, and I want to be clear for my own safety that I don't keep these items at home or at the return address listed on the tracking info.
In the very unlikely event that this auction does well, and someone is interested in buying more, I do have 2 more of the same gold bars I'd be willing to sell. At this point, I mainly focus on fractional gold coins and crypto, but if you want 1 or 2 more 100 gram gold bars, let me know.
