Hey guys/gals, maybe I'm too dumb to understand how BC really works, but I just signed-up on a BC site and before I can purchase a few coins, I was asked for all my REAL information, including last 4 of my SS#, address, and even a bank account to link my BC account to! So I'm scratching my head, "how can this be anonymous" they know everything about me and if I buy anything using that BC account, I just opened, it'll be just as transparent as buying w/ cc lol. Again please forgive my ignorance, but can someone briefly explain how can any transaction from a BC account be anonymous, if they collect every piece of information about you before allowing you to open an account! Thanks!
