This is not adoption, at least not the adoption we were looking for.
This is centralized companies creating something completely centralized on centralized or semi-centralized platforms. Was this really what people were hoping to happen to the cryptocurrency world? I don't think so.
These centralized or semi-centralized platforms and their products can bring more convenience to people and some will become their new users and new participants in cryptocurrency market.
With long term it will help for adoption generally but I very agree with you about privacy. These platforms and their products don't help people to gain privacy and enhance users' experience and their privacy.
With time and own experience, people will be exposed more about privacy and take care of their privacy more seriously. I know privacy must be secured at beginning but it's hard for non technical, not security people to know about importance of privacy when they just begin as newbies.
Like me, it takes me a long time to learn in the forum and learn about Bitcoin as well as privacy. I did not know about it when I was a newbie.
DEX, Web3 wallets created by Centralized exchange teams, it's hard to believe you will get privacy with them.
