Bitcoin isnt anonymous, and doesn't claim to be.
If you want an anonymous currency check out something like Zcash or monero. They use some fancier crypto to obscure transaction inputs and outputs, which gets you a bit farther towards being anonymous.
- hughw 7y agoIt's pseudonymous.
- proverbialbunny 7y agoFar less anonymous than using a bank. Bitcoin has and always will be a way to cut down transaction costs, cutting out the middle man ie cutting out the banks. To do that, everyone has to be able to audit every transaction and verify authenticity of a transaction. In this way bitcoin is anti anonymous, always has and always will be.
