Bitcoin isn't anonymous, and if the NSA has infiltrated the various Bitcoin whitewashers (er, "exchanges") it also has your incoming transaction history, to boot.

Bitcoin, like Tor, is essentially a honeypot for surveillance. Better to hide out in plain sight in my opinion.

What evidence have you got that Tor is a surveillance honeypot?

Never forget: ToR is funded by the US government.

So?

If you control both the tor entrance and exit nodes, you can unmask the user. Statistically, controlling 300 nodes (~1% of the network) should be enough to unmask a large number of users. It is not hard to spin up a whole bunch of servers to the mix, and I would find it very hard to believe that the NSA/similar does not already control a substantial portion of the network.

Buy bitcoin for cash, preferably from someone you don't know.

LocalBitcoins.com might come in handy here.

Nice - fast implementation and this should shore up what seems to be by far the weakest link in your (privacy-above-all) offering.
