If you use Tor properly...
Which requires a lot of attention to detail...
You will be "effectively" anonymous.
That means the COST of finding you...
Will VERY likely EXCEED the resources LE is willing to spend.
Your ISP is not even in the picture.
This does not apply to lazy or technically illiterate people...
You pretty much have to be a career criminal to care that much.

People openly sell hard drugs on Silk Road...
You gotta see it to believe it...
Which is the #1 application for Bitcoins...
Below are some recent articles.
"Chris McDonald, an associate professor in computer science at the University of Western Australia and Dartmouth College in the US, says the federal government '' has no chance of beating existing encryption technology such as the TOR network''.

"Law enforcement may not be able to beat TORs encryption. However, it did not prevent US authorities in April arresting eight men accused of operating The Farmers Market -- another service that used the TOR anonymiser to facilitate trade. Undercover Drug Enforcement Administration agents had infiltrated the organisation after becoming trusted buyers over several years of investigation. "
So LE has to actually infiltrate criminal rings "for years"...
Actually buy and ship stuff around the globe...
Because they cannot defeat Tor encryption...
That, baby, involves millions of $$$ in resources..
