I'm not trying to keep my person anonymous in real life, I'm just avoiding doxxing Laser for no good reason.

I hear you and same here.
I’m just not convinced of the no-KYC approach. I need to understand it more.
I’ve jumped in but still come back to the audit-ability & transparency of BTC & near impossibility of spending or owning remaining unknown. I get conjoin etc but need to spend more time on this.
Two seperate concerns:
1. It makes alot of sense to maintain a nym seperate from your legal identity given the rise of social credit. Not only is it a type of legitimate activism, but it allows the soul to express itself without fear of political persecution.
2. Unregistered sats, often called #NoKYC sats, if kept out of the fiat system, are unlikely to recieve confiscatory claims by the State. This makes them great for using to escape a pathological country (eg, genocide or enslavement), but also good for inheritance: your grandkids can obtain the #Bitcoin without a broke sovereign banging down their door.
I think many folks have KYC sats and that's okay, but at the same time: it's never too late to establish and grow a stack of unregistered sats.
