Your first problem is narrowly thinking price charts = network effect Secondly, you can have privacy with an network size of 1, since PRIVACY has no baring on ANONYMITY which is a different concept altogether. One is hiding information about someone, the other is hiding their identity. You can have one without the other. Third, this is not even true. Most Bitcoiners have no anonymity, that's why it is often called pseudonymous, because it is not true anonymity. And vast majority of bitcoiners do not coinjoin let alone every transaction. When I send a Monero transaction the receiver could have literally been ANY MONERO USER THAT HAS EVER EXISTED thanks to stealth addresses. When I send a Bitcoin transaction it is known who the receiver is 100% deterministically vast majority of the time. When you coinjoin only your paltry amount of peers are your anonset, not all Bitcoin users that have ever existed. Any mistakes they make also reduce your already small anon set
