Apparently it’s also applied to Bitcoin/Index/**
it’s not. The index is not obfuscated. If there is no obfuscation key, all zeros are recorded.
Is there a way to set the obfuscation key for a chain state?
no.
Why is the chain-state obfuscation key not the same as it is used everywhere else?
ChainState obfuscation was introduced for a long time before Blocksdir obfuscation took place. It was implemented by storing obfuscation keys directly in the database itself. Having the same obfuscation key can be a problem, as ChainState and BlocksDir don’t necessarily have to go together and ChainState can be deleted without deleting blocksdir.
