Good to hear a dissenting opinion. What you are saying makes sense. I guess if Bitcoin becomes mainstream other, actually anonymous coins, will take it's place in the black market and Bitcoin could actually become "the man", a scary thought indeed but there will always be ways to escape surveillance, it will just be more sophisticated and high tech for criminals and freedom loving people.
