Maybe not completely anonymous but would you agree that bitcoin transactions should be more private? Developments like Schnorr and Taproot to improve scalability and privacy is underway and may go live this year. Then there's another called Coinswap which was proposed recently as posted by @dkbit98 - Bitcoin Privacy Improvement with new CoinSwap


One thing I often hear is how bitcoin should become a fully anonymous cryptocurrency.  No, it shouldn't.  If people want bitcoin to truly become mainstream then making bitcoin fully anonymous would destroy that goal.
It could potentially destroy mixing/coinjoin services too.
