I have a question that why people scare to show their identity if they are doing legal? Why people do not use real identity??? It makes here a more trustable market!!

Because most people like the relative anonymity of crypto.
If you are concerned about a seller/buyer being trustworthy, just use escrow.

Just because you have nothing to hide doesn't mean you want to show everything.

I'd like to stay anon even if it's legal, I have some better feeling about it.

We aren't scared. We just don't want to share details with people we don't know, and who may use those details against us. Haven't you ever heard of identity theft? We have to be careful.

Do you want the government to monitor you while you sleep too?

ok, show me all your credit card transcations and bank statements. i bet you wouldn't want us to see that right? same reason bitcoiners don't want people all up in their business. i dont understand ur question exactly, but u wouldn't going around telling your friends you had thousands of dollars on you would you? some of them might rob you or be tempted or someone else might overhear and rob u later. never talk openly or brag about money.

Who doesn't like privacy? You want your co-workers to know what you bought at Macy's? It's a nice thing to have, privacy. Recognized by the Supreme Court even.

You are under the mistaken impression that by not hiding one's identity that one would tend toward honesty. Our real names wouldn't give you much more information than you have with a nickname. If I told you my name was John Williams would you you trust me then? I have two more words for you - Bernie Madoff

In crypto world, you want to share as less identity is possible to reduce hacker and scam

It would depend on person. Some will pay a premium on sites like localbitcoin to stay not known.
I think most don't hide they just don't advertise.

I hate giving out information, even to companies like paypal, who knows that they do with that information, if a rogue employee gets ahold of it than many bad things can happen. The only party that should have complete ownership of your information is you, thats why bitcoin is needed, you should be the only person with access to your own money.

It is very simple, because we like privacy. Similarly, while I haven't done anything illegal, I wouldn't enjoy having a random person reading all my emails and text messages.

Because bad things can happen if unknown people have your identity. Identity thieft and other frauds, mad people appearing in your home because of some discussion in the forum(we have some really crazy peope here), people trying to blackmail you, people making voodos and hiring deep web assassins to kill you, and stuff

Why do you not do this? I don't think you've thought this through which is ironic given your username, and further irony is why isn't your username your real name? What have you got to hide? As already stated, people have a right to privacy and sharing personal information can be dangerous in numerous ways.

Because government is evil and want to tax you into poverty. And for those already in poverty, the government still borrowing insane amount of money and stripe the country resources without giving any back to the population.

Thanks from all your responses, like all of you, I like to keep my privacy and asking somebody identity does not mean to ask transaction history or... but when it comes to buy a digital good, say an amazon gift card or... that has the risk of being stolen then it is not complicated to ask more identity.

I think if bitcoin become a tool for anonymously doing crimes and illegal trades countries will simply bad the servers, like what happened for many download and torrent hosts.
