There is no need for bitcoin to do that. Monero and Dash can already achieve anonymous transaction. Bitcoin should remain a transparent money.

Anonymity and transactional privacy are not mutually exclusive. Adam Back ably pointed out that anonymity is simply a by-product of fungible money, and so any improvements to privacy/anonymity only contribute further to Bitcoin's inherent money-like properties.
