The ZeroCoin extension to bitcoin addresses this, perhaps it should be taken up http://blog.cryptographyengineering.com/2013/04/zerocoin-making-bitcoin-anonymo

  As it stands now, zerocoin is infeasible for practical use. A single proof averages 40kb, and takes about to two seconds to verify. Still, it was the first attempt at such a ptotocal, so hopefully we will see improvement.

    The bitcoin network does less than one transaction a second total, and that size isn't terribly large compared to normal transactions. It's at least viable to implement in its current form.
