Hi, say if you obtain plastic VISA or MasterCard where you can withdraw your bitcoins directly from any ATM, are you being anonymous when cashing out? In my country every ATM has integrated camera in it.
as long as you are connecting to their system through your card and your transaction is going through their system, you can not stay anonymous because they have all your information and
what you did is being recorded.
so you are better off using bitcoin directly. this is why i disslike using any third party service when bitcoin is involved.
