I don't see how privacy can ever be solved with blockchain. By design, everything you ever do is permanently out in the open for ever and ever for anyone to not only see what you did, but mathematically prove that it was you (well, your key at least) that did it.

Sure you can be "anonymous" when using your wallet etc, but as we all know it is usually trivial to de-anonymize large data sets. Likewise, being anonymous when using a wallet then removes a lot of the perceived value of using it for identity verification (e.g. sign-ins, proof of humanity etc).
