I don't know what are the addresses used by my friends or if they use bitcoin or not. Sharing a bitcoin address is completely different from sharing bank account details. For example: I can use bitcoin to pay a sex worker and ensure its never associated with my real identity or used to track my holdings. I am not comfortable using bank account to pay her and get this transaction on my bank statement. | |
