Thank you!

Well I know that it is possible to make it harder ... But no matter I think this is pretty problematic.
I always assumed that if I own several addresses I can send my coins from any one of them at any time ... but that is not true.
Which means there is no way to do an untraceable moving of coins from A to B --> there is no cash.

Today every online bank transaction is traceable ... it is hard because you need to talk to all the banks but it is of course possible. But there is cash ... noone can trace cash-deals or gold for that matter. I know it is also hard to move a lot of cash or gold without anyone noticing it but it is possible. It is possible to do that and leave no trace. No trace at all.
In the future (with bitcoins) it is not. Its even easier to trace as I just need to ask the blockchain and not several banks, western union, moneygram and all the other money-moving-businesses.

Disclaimer:
I like Bitcoin and I have supported them since a long time ... I am just saying :-)

I (everyone) always read that argument, but think about it ... that is pretty problematic.
Assume BTCs have conquered the world and every shop accepts them, so you can go out and pay for stuff.
How do you think using new addresses improves your anonymity?
In order to spend coins from the new address (the one you just made to improve your anonymity) you need to send coins there ... meaning I know where these coins came from ... meaning if I know one of your addresses in time and with afford I can track you ... every single transaction you did or will do in the future.
Pretty scary don't you think?
