When I bought some bitcoins, I did it with cash. I took money to a bank teller, and wired it to an account; then the service sent me the bitcoin via email. I never showed ID, so there was no way to track it to me. I suppose if someone cared enough to track a cash withdrawal they could do that, but in no way was my bank account connected with a bitcoin transaction at any time.
