What can we do about address reuse?

There are so many exchanges that give their users only one receive address ever. Even hardware wallet users often don't bother fetching their device to generate a new address ever. Sending to such addresses also makes the funds of the sender more trackable and ultimately bitcoin less fungible for all.

Convincing people to use Bitcoin is hard enough but then to bother them to change their address for each transaction is such a hard sell. 😢

Also, governments love address re-use and they’re trying to restrict wallets and exchanges from generating new ones…you know, to fight terrorism or something.
