Not really anonymous, more elements like darknets, p2p exchange, etc is needed for that. Even different coin tech such as zcash. And adding coin to market drops market price, thus market cap. A better market cap metric might be the current net sum of all historical BUY-IN's and SELL-OUT's of the currency since its inception at the 'quantity x price' at which each transaction at that time occurred. Perhaps adjusted to reflect relative x-flation to a chosen fiat using some purchasing power index. Adding some days-destroyed method to compensate current value for long term hold is interesting too. IN/OUT central/p2p exchange data isn't published. So the next best is sum of 'coin generation x price' at that time. No?
