Will the whole world know my networth?

Quick question: given how the blockchain is a public ledger containing every transaction ever made on the bitcoin network, does this mean that if I send someone some bitcoin, or give them my an address to send me some, they now have the ability to trace the transactions to/from that address and hence be able to decipher exactly how much bitcoin I have? Or is this something that has been addressed already? submitted by /u/Defiant_disco_4062 [link] [comments]
