What do you consider to be a dual-hat?
Working on classified and unclassified projects on the same or related topics, subject to NDAs and secrecy clearance agreements. While also working the public celebrity arena leaking hints and yarps about what's behind the cloak that cannot be disclosed. Corresponds roughly to dual-use technology, such as, notably, crypto, nuclear, biological, chemical, radiological. These and much other dual-use technology are fulsomely described in global export control regimes, like the Wassenaar Arrangement. But quite a few dual-use controls are themselves secret. Finance gets a lot of open and classified attention. Crypto is a pretty good pathfinder to trace the other technologies and their profiteers, so it gets a special place in the pantheon of lucrative treachery, right up there next to law and politics, all dual-hatted, so duplictious that mere duality of forked-tongues should be understood as over-simplification.
