Was Bin Laden even alive when BTC was invented?
Anyway, anyone can see any transaction at anytime on the blockchain. Also known as permisionless. Can your identity be hidden? Maybe, but you will have to put in more effort than your average user to do it. And you can't transact with anyone that has a known address. Nothing is stopping anyone from counterfeiting the dollar either. North Korea counterfeits dollars.
The reason some don't like BTC is because they can't control it. Others like BTC because no one can control it. Either way it is going to be here so it doesn't really matter what we think about it. It can't be stopped. Doesn't mean the price has to go up, but it will be here.
