🧵 The "Ethical Privacy" Thread 1/5 The "Digital Iron Curtain" is falling. 🧱 By 2027, the EU’s new AMLR framework will effectively ban anonymous crypto wallets and privacy coins like Monero and Zcash. The message is clear: total transparency or total exclusion. But there is a third way. 🛡🤓

2/5 We are entering an era of "surveillance-by-design." 👁 New regulations will mandate identity verification for almost all transactions and require crypto providers to verify the source of funds for self-custody transfers. The original promise of crypto, financial sovereignty, is under siege.

3/5 Enter Lexie: The Ethical Privacy counter. ⚖️ We believe privacy shouldn't be a tool for bad actors, but it also shouldn't be a sacrifice for honest users. Lexie is building the Confidential OS to thread the needle between compliance and true sovereignty.

4/5 How do we do it? LexieVault. 🔒 Unlike the transparent "glass house" wallets of today, LexieVault uses Zero-Knowledge (ZK) Proofs to verify transactions without exposing your sensitive data, balances, or history to the stay protected; the system stays secure. Long-termism depends on real utility: the right to move your assets without a permanent "X-ray" on your financial life.
