Maybe if you're a private company. Public companies have to disclose all this stuff anyway. Plus, most of the time the money is the absolutely last thing that trades hands, so the information is usually public at that point anyway.

I don't disagree with the government aspect but if and when it becomes that sophisticated, I think there will be plenty of ways for them to obfuscate who the buyer and seller are.

That's just my opinion. If they make everything "private", the government completely loses control of the ability to tax. My bet would be that they figure out ways to maintain their privacy while still trying to out the general public. Might be a little cynical but...it's not like we don't have reason to think that way.
