Is there anyway to track scammers who scammed bitcoins and ethereum? Google search for public addresses don't find a thing.

Is there any tool where i can input addresses and it analyses it? I know there is block explorers but is there anything better?

you can use walletexplorer to link addresses to wallets
https://www.walletexplorer.com/

IIRC, these guys also have commercial products that dig deeper into the data..

If i'm not mistaking, this tool works by tracking when unspent outputs that funded different addresses are combined as input for a new transaction. However, if your attacker is smart enough, or used a mixer (or equivalent), this tool won't work... I don't think there are tools that are able to track attackers that actually know what they're doing, and cover their tracks...
Well i am also new to this system and thanks for this info it will be a future reference one day. And another thing also i would like to trace some of the bitcoin transaction from wallet to wallet to this link being identified. If this works but if will not then probably i will read some of the members input in this thread. Anyways i am still thankful though.
