Research Summary: User perceived privacy in Blockchain

Hi @simin I just found out that it is something good and interesting to comment on the privacy of blockchain and its transparency, this is because the most appealing aspect of blockchain technology is the degree of privacy it offers, but this can create some confusion regarding transparency. Blockchain networks periodically (i.e., every 10 minutes) self-audit the digital value ecosystems that coordinate transactions; one set of these transactions is called a block, and this process results in two properties: transparency and impossibility of corruption. In a blockchain, the identity of the user is hidden behind a strong cipher, making it particularly difficult to link public addresses to individual users. The question that arises in my head is, how can blockchain be regarded as truly transparent?
