its basically a thought experiment.
one of the things i never understood about bitcoin was the idea of the public ledger. one of the main things about most people and businesses in general is that they do not want to draw attention to their actual flows of money. the idea everyone would want their entire purchase and payment history "out there" in public never made sense to me.
but if you could actually make bitcoin anonymous, then what would happen? would it be adopted more? or would the government actually have to crack down?
