Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

Well it isn't a final decision yet
'' Then...the city council [will decide] if bitcoins and most other digital currencies are to be accepted as payment for other urban services in the future."
