I’m worried about some of you. Some of you who may be operating under the assumption that Bitcoin is anonymous. It is not. - See more at: http://bitcoinfaucetrelay.com/a-friendly-reminder-bitcoin-is-not-anonymous/#sthash.ZvEZHZ5D.dpuf

I am sure a lot of people are aware about that . Its best to use Darkcoin if you want guaranteed anonymity .

Exactly. You can make cash transactions anonymously as well, but if you're sloppy with either cash or bitcoin you will get caught if you're doing something against the law with them.

Not to be confused with the user sifter Tongue.

Bitcoin can be anonimous if you know what you are doing but plastic can never do that.

I am not worried about people who do illegal things(depends on what exactly they are doing, since a lot of laws are shit)

Yes, we know that bitcoin is not anonymous and it should not be anonymous.
However bitcoin is pseudo anonymous. You can be anonymous if you know what you are doing. There are many coin mixing services that can help you to be anonymous. And yes, you cannot doxed using a simple bitcoin address(provided that you are not using your address with your identity).

Stay hungry. Stay foolish.

Not necessarily... you could steal or clone someones card and you could use it pretty anonymously then, though obviously doesn't give you as much protection as bitcoin does and you're not doing anything illegal. You could use those top up credit cards as well which I think you can use some of them without providing details.

Darkcoin is a joke. Monero is where it's at.

I am sure most are aware that Bitcoin normally is not anonymous. It can have a good amount of anonymity quite easily if necessary by running through a few exchanges and mixers.

Bitcoin is annonymus and only the person who don't know how to use it will make it not annonymus , some people use the same Bitcoin adress over and over and on several forums etc ... then they ask their selfs why they got hacked , how they got doxed etc ...
Darkcoin is good because of the full annonimity and off chain transaction indeed .. still Bitcoin is not bad at all and there is a project under developement called Zerocoin & Zerocash which will make Bitcoin fully annonymus , I wonder when it's going to be released tho . For now you can simply use Bitcoin Mixer .

Using change addresses and receiving address used only once will help to certain extent. In the end it is still your responsibility to adopt good practices in order to protect privacy

Not really. If you're sloppy even mixing services wont help you. I'm sure Ross used them too though Silk Road had their own internal tumblers, but when you get caught with your wallets you can easily backtrace the transactions.

Bitcoin is build on bitcoinchain which is like a ledger with all transactions in. It`s not anonymous. But it`s hard to find owner of the transaction unless it`s discovered in his notebook.

Wow, while the article is true (bitcoin is not anonymous) I have to say, the language use by the author is just dripping in hate!
