User Perceived Privacy in Blockchain
summary
A user study of UTXO blockchains surveys 101 people, excludes 43 for quality, leaving 58 quantitative respondents and 12 interviews; results show over half prefer privacy coins (Monero over Zcash) rather than Bitcoin add‑ons, users often lack knowledge of the common input ownership heuristic, many will accept longer confirmations but half refuse higher fees, CoinJoin’s distinguishability deters adoption, and current privacy wallets remain too complex and rarely used.
