Dear Members,

I am new here and I have a few questions about purchasing Bitcoin:

1) If I purchase Bitcoin and then use the Bitcoin to buy something online, can the person I bought from trace me? Meaning can they find out my identity and physical location?

If so, how to avoid this?

2) If I purchase bitcoin with cash, how does the person I buy the Bitcoin from, send me the Bitcoin?

I understand how it works online, you just enter your Bitcoin wallet address on the website you are buying Bitcoin from.

But in person, how do you give someone your Bitcoin wallet address? You can’t write it down on a piece of paper, because it is too long of a code.

If I email them my Bitcoin wallet address, then I am no longer anonymous.

3) About Bitcoin wallets: I started using Blockchain wallet yesterday. Seems pretty nice and professional. But then I read that I should use the anonymous TorWallet. Now I am confused. Which to use?

Thank you so much, sorry for the basic nature of my questions. I just started with Bitcoin yesterday.
