 XMR mined via P2P pool on a dedicated machine connected through VPN only.  Is that as non-KYC/untraceable as it gets?  
 Does your VPN have a killswitch? Will it stop all traffic on the network if it goes down? 
Do you have WiFi accessibility on your network that can get to your miner's IP address? 
Do you run VLANs? 
Who run's your VPN service? 
Do they rent or own their VPN boxes?

 Yes, killswitch. Running on the router itself.  Wireguard.  I can't prove it never leaked but understand that's a risk.  I could do better there.  Used both Proton (with their "secure core" feature) and Mullvad (acknowledge jurisdiction concerns).  WiFi disabled - just one wired client.  
 Why didn't I just use Tor instead of a VPN?  Good question.  That seems better to me right now.
