Bitcoin itself can be used anonymously if one is careful. However, there should never had been any expectation of anonymity when exchanging for another currency that is not anonymous, like a USD bank transfer.
- sliverstorm 13y agoMuch like Tor; the weakest link is when you enter or exit.
- nwh 13y agoThe entry to Tor is never really an issue, at that point the data is several layers of encryption deep. You are right in that exits are a problem though, unless the target is a a hidden service.
- haakon 13y agoExit nodes aren't really a problem either, if you realize that Tor's purpose is to protect your anonymity. An exit node may see your traffic, but can't see where it comes from, thus protecting your anonymity. If you need confidentiality in addition, you need to use tools designed for that (such as SSL).
