While I understand that monero is more anonymous than BTC, it seems bitcoin is more widely accepted. Here is what I propose:
1) purchase BTC 2) shapeshift to monero (if possible, never used shapeshift or other cryptocurrencies exchanges like it) 3) transfer monero around to an intermediate wallet (or two) 4) re-shift back to BTC
It seems this would allow you to separate your BTC from any personal link. Perhaps I don't have a great understanding of monero or the way it operates and this might be a false sense of protection.
Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated. Stay safe.
