Is Steem more anonymous than Bitcoin?

in steem •  8 years ago  (edited)

I was referring more to the cryptocurrency itself.. So for example if a user:

  1. Downloads the Steam CLI wallet
  2. Mines using his own computer some Steem
  3. Sends them to another Steem address

What are the possible differences with Bitcoin in terms of anonymity or safety? I know for example that Bitcoin has strong encryption mechanisms..

bitcoin is not anon. but neither is steem for the most part.

I just found this and at one point Ned talks about being able to anonymously mine an account into existence https://steemit.com/steem/@seb2point0/interview-with-ned-scott-steem-the-blockchain-based-social-media-platform
