Is Bitcoin Anonymous Enough For You?

[X-ray]

Would you, if asked, personally consider Bitcoin anonymous enough for your needs? Does it lack privacy features? Would you consider Bitcoin anonymous, semi-anonymous or transparent?

Do you want an anonymous crypto currency?

Personally, for me bitcoin is anonymous. Bitcoin is better to secure my various data and transaction history. That's one reason for me to use and choose bitcoin to become my personal currency.Maybe some people are sure if bitcoin better to secure their privacy.

[RobinHoodster]

Its still not enough for me because it can still trace.. you need to use any kind of mixers service before you can be a anonymous.

It is enough for me do I know that I am doing nothing bad with Bitcoin so I am good with the way it is. I am only here to try and make some money and that is it.

Bitcoin is more than anonymous enough for me, partially because I don't do much stuff on the dark web and also because I don't intend on doing anything criminal. Having a fairly random alpha-numeric series associated with my name is fine by me.

As for a number of other people though, I think they'd want more secure options.

Bitcoin is not anonymous enough. We see all those threads all the time about people speculating on amounts of money being moved, this is annoying for the person moving the money, I wouldn't like to see people speculating about transactions and trying to trace them somewhere.

We need to get rid of that with confidential transactions and by-default Coinjoined transactions, then we will solve the fungibility problem.

[ObscureBean]

Well, it's not nearly as anonymous as hard cash, literally everything you do using Bitcoin leaves a permanent mark in the system and can be tracked. Right now it's not too bad, we don't have to have our real identities associated with our addresses/wallets and transactions but I'm fairly certain that if Bitcoin goes mainstream the government will require some form of ID verification from everyone using it. Anonymity is not really a big deal for me though, I'm happy with Bitcoin the way it is

I think it's semi anonymous because we only don't need to give our identity to create wallet or earn bitcoin (legal way, I don't know how it works on illegal way).

Bitcoin is already anonymous and enough in making transactions for illegal activities around the web.
No one will try to make an illegal action if bitcoin is not that secure and anonymois.

[hasiramasenju]

for me Bitcoin aren't fully anonymous because someone can trace my wallet address but i do not expect more for bitcoin even though not fully anonymous but with all the existing features in bitcoin that's enough for me

[amiryaqot]

I don't care about anonymity because i use bitcoin to send funds and it working fine for me, i know every transaction can be traced so that i never use my coins for illegal activities but it saving a lot of money for me to send funds, buy some stuff from online stores so that i am satisfied with bitcoin.

Well I can't say that bitcoin is too anonymous for your privacy of money but from most places of where you could put your money with enough privacy except banks, then i would definitely say bitcoin. By far all kinds of safe keeping for money bitcoin seconds banks.

It certainly much more anonymous than other currencies,but people can still see your address and the location you sent the bitcoins from,so its not 100% anonymous.

Cash in your pocket is more anonymous than Bitcoin these days, with all of the 3rd party services requiring you to verify your real identity to adhere to the KYC/AML regulations. Some of the merchants

and services will not accept direct transfers, without the use of these 3rd party payment processors. So Bitcoin has become less anonymous than cash, IF you use it via these 3rd party services. I have

seen statistics being shown by these sites, showing how many people are buying Mc Donald's and takeout food with Bitcoin. It's scary to see where this is going...and what governments are doing to

Bitcoin. 

[jukka]

i consider it as semi-anonymous. more anonymous than eg credit cards but not as much i would like to see.

still with its limitation, for me btc is the best option if i want to stay anonymous.

i dont consider cash anonymous at all as you (normally) have to be present when using it.

[SilverPunk]

Yes ,i like being anonymous because it gives me freedom to use my money without tracing any transactions i do , but in sone poin it is also good to be not anonymous because i used only my bitcoins in a good way.

[raphma]

i'm not buying drugs, running from CIA, so... yeah, bitcoin is enough to me  
security and anonymity, if you now what you are doing bitcoin will do it well.

[~Bitcoin~]

To use it is anonymous enough but the only problem arise during exchaning it to real life currency. You need to provide all of your details to withdraw coin to bank or even you have to provide physical address to get physical bitcoin visa or mastercard to withdraw from atm.

[Akupuniard]

Nothing to hide, so i don't really care about anonymity, for people who using bitcoin in illegal ways it's not really safe enough. Need to use mixers and other stuff..

[NeuroticFish]

Bitcoin is not anonymous. But there are plenty of altcoins that offer good to great anonymity.
However, for most of us BTC is just an asset and the fact it's not anon doesn't bother us much.

[bitbunnny]

For average user, whowis not into some dark/criminal activity I think is anonimous enough.. Bitcoin can be traced, with more effort then usual fiat transactions, but still there is enough space for anonimity if you want so.
