How Is This Bitcoin Anonymity?

The world’s first bitcoin ATM will open in Vancouver, Canada, next week – dispensing Canadian dollars in exchange for the anonymous crypto-currency, reports RT.

Anonymous? LOL.


The RT report goes on to say:

But only if your palm scan matches the ATM’s records, that is.
Supposedly:
The transactions themselves will be anonymous, the vendor says, but clients will have to identify themselves via a palm scanner first.
Oh yeah.

  1. Yeah, stupid article! Those who seek anonymity with bitcoin would never use this service. There are plenty of other ways to remain anonymous using Bicoin.

  2. I'm an early Bitcoin adopter. I'll never use this. Or Coinbase for the same reason.
