According to the leaked Chainalysis video on their attempts to trace monero transactions, one of the things that can make an $XMR transaction stand out is if the fee is higher or lower than average. You can't see amounts of a monero transaction but you can see the fee. My question is, when using the standard Monero GUI wallet, is it better for privacy to use the default fee setting labeled "automatic" or the one labeled"normal x1"? I tried finding this out but can't find a clear answer anywhere, does anyone know? I'm assuming automatic is the best choice and that's why it's the default option but I'm not sure.
