So there is two side to using Bitcoin if I understand.

One is simply using it, so you can have a completely private and untraceable transaction.

The other is mining, but it require to have a powerful gpu that is constantly running just to get a one bitcoin ($130) in a month. So I don't really understand the point of mining unless there are dedicated machines or configurations that are worth the investment on a short/middle term.

the transactions are always traceable... And the best method to ge tmoney out of bitcoins is to set up a website that organizes pools.

The transactions are traceable? So what's the point in using Bitcoin with say, Silk Road ?
