I see you are completly missing the point.

btw: whats stopping me from sending my own balance anon to a new address i own?
Already discussed. Nothing does stop you. Here XC behaves exactly as BTC, being 5 years open source heavy tested on the main net.
So why XC, not BTC?
I am honest to believe that anonymity is not prime feature of XC. But community is configured aggressive not just for criticism but for regard another main feature of XC.
Fair question and one I'm sure the XC team will need to better define and compress into an elevator speech. I'm also pretty sure the team is flattered you're already drawing the comparison to BTC.
I'm not sure I fully understand the superiority of the tech so I'll let others fill in, but I do know:
no mining -> so that takes care of the pesky unnecessary power consumption
POS -> so that makes holders interest, which is nice and helps offset 'some' volatility
P2P -> So messaging and blockchain transfers don't need to go through any central node
Multi Layered for Privacy -> I can't do a good job describing this, but this is a big deal for consumers here in the US
