what's the purpose of this.. hwy not just buy using cash? what's the incentive of being anonymous when purchasing these goods?
Seriously? The purpose of this is that buying things online is more convenient than having to go all the way to a store. Naturally, you can't pay cash when shopping online, so some sort of electronic payment system is required. And Bitcoin is faster and has lower fees than any other electronic payment system on the planet. That's the incentive. You're not anonymous when purchasing these goods as your name and address is needed to deliver them.
