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.
Tracing a certain BTC address can be easily done but the problem here is, If they knew how to use some mixers or other blending BTC service, you would not get any clue where might the funds go. You may track the BTC address but it requires some advance technique on how you can successfully trace certain funds on where had it goes.
That is the service offering of all mixers in the market, it can confused the blockchain where it is impossible to trace the transactions. There is a misconception about the anonymity of bitcoin because there are some people who thought that transactions with the use of bitcoin is impossible to trace but it is not true it will only become impossible to trace with the use of mixer services.
