Let me do a little explanation on my choices, for funsies:

A: Skin cells - Personal, obv. They could be private, good luck enforcing it. Cheesy
B: tree record - Personal, Public - It's a record that you own, but I think a record stating that you own it is vague enough to be public.
C: ink - I chose personal, which I now realize is probably wrong if it's not in your pen. Should be public.
D: Silo with Grain - Both - You own the silo, but it's contents should be private unless you show it off
E: Rigs - I think mining rigs that feed your account are not necessarily yours, and so they're not personal. Private? Under bitcoin rules, yes. Should we know who owns them? I'm not sure on that point.
F: Dollars - personal and private - For obvious reasons.

I have no clue what this is asking, so I'll eat a pancake.
I do indeed hope you enjoy your pancake.
It's a lot to expect, but i want you to define A-F as being either Uppercase, meaning private, or lowercase, meaning personal. A is obviously personal.

Giving definitions might help you get results that make any sense.  Private and personal can mean many different things depending on context.  Such as with private.  Do you mean private as in private property or private as in secret.
Private can mean "kept from others."

Both should exist so that everyone can chose, but public and open is better and should outcompete private and isolated.

Are personal things private Huh
Edit: Picked the last two...
Up to you.
Imo, personal things can be private, if they're encrypted well enough.
