Wow. He is a fool. Yes BTC is anonymous if you do it smart, never forgetting the fact that each transaction is on a public ledger. But his actions woukd force the State to find a solution to get him. And the State has massive ressources available to them to try to get him. He should have asked for Monero or ZCash as that is more anonymous. What do you think?

i think they could find him with this transaction.. but only if he didn´t put the transaction through a "bitcoin mixer" ^^
