These messages are not private. They are public, which is why you're able to read them.
I hope this has helped you understand the difference between pseudonymity and privacy. But if it hasn't, there's nothing more I can do to help you.
Or are you trying to claim that because you have not verified my real-world identity, these are actually private messages?
You're the only one here complaining about MSVC. Have you stopped to consider why Rust and Odin and so many other languages are happily depending on MSVC instead of the alternatives? Or does none of that matter and your opinion is the only correct opinion?
You are using words without understanding what they mean.
Darknet markets use monero, not bitcoin. Monero is one of the few currencies that does offer privacy, but it makes up a very small part of the ecosystem, less than 1% by market cap.
I use encrypted messaging, but if I decide to commit a crime I'm under no delusion that encryption will save me. Why can't the same be true for money?
Kraken has been a bastion of sanity amidst the chaos for a decade now. No prop trading, no dizzying corporate structure, no "liquidity" issues, no stadium sponsorships. They're just chugging along in the background, keeping their site online, publishing regular audits, and running the business like adults. I intend on holding BTC indefinitely, but if anything happened to Kraken it would likely change my mind.
Reminds me of "it either works or it doesn't, so there's a 50/50 chance"
85% of all email is spam[1]. But that's not a value judgment on the technology--Humanity can still get value from email.
Sturgeon's law says 90% of everything is crap. If you deal with other humans, you need a way to sift through that crap. In the case of email, that means use a spam filter. In the case of crypto, it means don't buy shitcoins.

ISPs will do the most boneheaded things to your traffic if it is not encrypted. There was a time when Comcast liked injecting random HTML into pages. I'm sure this guy has never had to "diagnose problems" resulting from an ISP rewriting HTML on the fly. Nowadays with TLS, ISPs are mostly out of the picture and the surface area for problems is dramatically smaller.
