Would be nice to have a written guide about privacy on bitcoin.
Sometimes it's difficult to obtain without KYC, or only if you agree to pay 5-20% more.
samurai was the best with the whirlpool.
what other options ?

Bitcoin is already, by far, the best privacy coin.
What is left now is to teach the history of how we got here - recognizing pioneers like Wasabi and Samurai - and learn from it.
Even more importantly - spread the knowledge on how to use the right tools: eCash, Boltz swaps, RoboSats, solid wallets like AquaBitcoin & BullBitcoin, and merchant platforms such as nostr:npub155m2k8ml8sqn8w4dhh689vdv0t2twa8dgvkpnzfggxf4wfughjsq2cdcvg.
It's critical that most Bitcoin stays no-KYC. Anything less than a supermajority pushes us toward a dystopian future - one already previewed in Sweden, where anyone can legally look up your home address and Bitcoin holdings in a public, government-mandated registry. I don't think anyone sane wants to live in the chaos of that type of world.

I would suggest you try BULL wallet. When purchasing off an exchange of your choice, withdraw via Lightning to your Instant Payments wallet in BULL, which will automatically swap your LN bitcoin to Liquid bitcoin (perks of Liquid is that transaction amounts are confidential) and then swap back to on-chain. You can even connect your wallet to BULL wallet, and set automatick swaps from Liquid directly to your cold-storage when your threshold is reached i.e. 1M or 5M sats, it's up to you.
Also Bull Bitcoin wallet should be available in Switerzalnd soon, so youll be able to buy Bitcoin directly via Liquid, followed by auto swap to cold stage.
agree with the above, wrote a guide here: https://werunbtc.com/coldcard
It would be cool to see this functionality integrated with Lightning node apps on Umbrel. Would be a good project to work on.
Thanks 🙏
