Im wondering are there ways to trace Crypto transactions like tracing an IP of someone when doing online transactions if so what are ways to protect yourself from getting traced. Im rather uninformed on the subject and I would like to get up to speed on the current happenings right now.
I know for sure that they are traceable through the Blockchain. Blockchain is an open space and youre able to trace every transaction, theres nothing hidden. But, I dont know whether you can be able to trace any other thing apart from the addresses, I dont know if the IP address of the address owner is exposed. I have seen someone that got scammed and was able to trace the address of the scammer to Binance.
I dont k know what happened next, if he was able to get Binance to block the account of the scammer or not, but I knew they are likely not to agree to do that. Thats why some people are fond of mixing their coins to avoid being traced.
