OP, your post is a mess.
For people who are looking for actual info:

https://finbold.com/anonymous-crypto-wallets-now-illegal-in-the-eu/
Or the source OP was using:

(ETA better info and links)
why would someone limit me how I can spend my earned and 40% already taxed (taken) money? I gave my life time to earn it, they take half of it and still forbidding me to use it?
Hiding money in anonymous crypto is a way to avoid paying taxes or launder money.
Trump made crypto trading cards so Russia and Saudi Arabia could contribute to him anonymously.
So if that is a problem, focus and investigate, why I have to do anything with that? And that is US, this is EU.
