Serious problems with the following sentence:
It also means that Bitcoin provides a unique digital
fingerprint, which allows for anonymous and irreversible
transactions.

unique digital fingerprint >> anonymous and irreversible transactions
So, Mr. Senator, what your telling me is that unique, readily identifiable, globally visible objects represent the very apparatus that prevents identification? How, precisely does that work?
