Bitcoin is not anonymous, why do people keep harping this falsehood? At best, Bitcoin is pseudononymous. But every single transaction is forever kept in the Bitcoin Ledger, for the rest of time (or at least... till the end of BTC's existence). |

And, some subsequent attempts at an improved cryptocurrency are likely to try to include the past blockchain balances as an initial endowment (or balances as of a certain checkpoint).
Doing so would help lay claim to being Bitcoin's rightful heir, and attract the immediate financial interest of people who've already proven their interest in cryptocurrencies.
