Topic: Why Anonymity so important to you? - page 10. (Read 9438 times)
Although I don;t think Bitcoin is all that anonymous. With all the prying eyes in the NSA I prefer my transactions to be private. They have no business knowing what I do with my money. I also have the freedom of not having to answer any questions about where I got my money, did I pay tax, how much I deposit or withdraw. Almost no fees to move around money. Bitcoin to me is freedom to won wealth without having to explain it.
Sorry to burst the bubble but bitcoin is not anonymous as it currently stands.
Anonymity is important to me because no one needs to know what I'm doing. Im not saying I'm involved in criminal activities but, I like my privacy.
1. I don't have to report anything
2. I don't have to pay tax on it. Just the small transaction fee.
3. It finally gives people(in my opinion)some financial freedom.
4. No one knows how much money I have.
5. I don't have to pay a bank $15 a month for an account. The days of getting interest from banks is gone.
6. No one knows what I do with my money or how I spend it.
7. I have no limit on how much I can deposit or withdrawal
I could go on and on. Some of these reasons aren't necessarily for anonymity, but more so reasons to use bitcoin.

it's not that important. most of what matters has KYC.
Horseshit.

I would rather nit a bunch if strangers knowing my personal info. Nor do I want coworkers knowing how much I make.
Then don't tell them.
Nothing is free, anonymity also comes with a price. Maybe bitcoin 2.0 will address that problem.

It's important to me and not only for btc but in general because it isn't anyones business
how much gas I purchase a month. Or How much coffee I consume in a month. as examples
It has nothing to do with illegalities but in knowing that someone knows how boring my life is better than me.
Which is why I pay cash for my groceries and gas and use other peoples loyalty cards.
It's much easier to take your picture from a hidden camera and positively ID you even if you use cash. how much gas I purchase a month. Or How much coffee I consume in a month. as examples

Why is privacy so important for you? Why is personal space so important for you? Why can't I fuck your wife? Sharing is caring
Non-Sequitur. Do you fuck every wife that tells you her name?

So regarding BTC, I understand why people use it.
So you can't be tracked down, it's useful, it's fast, etc etc.
But do you remain anonymous because of blackhat related activities?
Do you just not want to be known?
I personally don't care. I just think that BTC is a great investment for me.
Is Anonymity not that important to you?

There is a small chance BTC becomes "the weapon of terrorism" and anyone that has ever owned it is to be executed. I'd prefer it not to be known I owned BTC at that point. Lets be honest though.. the gov already knows I own btc lol.

I don't wand people to know that I own a metric crapton of BTC. I can barely store them, they just take up too much space. If people are aware of you BTC holdings, you may become the target of people intending to steal them. Also I guess a lot of people may want to hide their BTC from tax authorities.
Your problems are not shared by most people. There are ways to mix bitcoins in your situation. As far as tax authorities, I don't know why they would care about your bitcoins unless you owe them money.I personally think there's no possible way to TAX BTC.
I mean we have transfer fees but they're virtually non existent.

Anonymous money will allow enriched Uranium sellers to sell their material with no risk of getting caught. It will allow kidnappers to snatch your children or wife with no risk of getting caught. There have already been attempts of extortion and plenty of drug sales because of Bitcoin's pseudonymity. Be careful what you wish for. Just because you can doesn't mean you should.
If the anonymity trick proves to be stable, then there is no doubt it will be forked into Bitcoin. This is about technology development over social morality. Society will have to adjust to lawlessness as they did in the stone age. It will absolutely force people to use coin validation for their own personal safety and for exactly the same reasons that you cannot buy enriched uranium at Walmart.

I feel like this is just a way to avoid taxes placed on us by the IRS.
