by yours truly.

"Suspicious of government, and equipped with the technical known how to dodge its influence, these hackers have collaboratively developed bitcoin to the point where it now stands as a viable internet currency."

Even if you use Bitcoin through Tor, the way transactions are handled by the network makes anonymity difficult to achieve. Do not expect your transactions to be anonymous unless you really know what you're doing.

Another blog post, this time looking at the possibility of a fractional reserve banking system based on Bitcoin:

"We are seeing the rise of one of the first viable internet currencies where nobody is control. The growth in size, payments and goods and services offered are evidence of this. However, the future of Bitcoin may look quite different to its origins as a cypher-punk geek project."
