Mar 7, 2021 at 19:12 comment added user103136 Peer to Peer network for Bitcoin has nothing where addresses are shared with friends. 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.
