Both nodes and wallets use, leads to an ip address where information can be found.
Nodes knows the IP addresses of each other and it is possible for a node to predict the IP address for which a transaction has originated from but it is nowhere near accurate. For someone to be able to track this accurately, one has to connect to all the nodes within the network and that is impossible.

If that's possible for anyone, we could findout who is Satoshi Nakamoto and thus all the doubts about the creator/creators of Bitcoin might be revealed.

Good  point BTW, which supports my own one.  TLDR; if you major concern is the  privacy and anonymity while dealing with Bitcoin   then you only have two choices left - ether  to be as good at bitcoin as Satoshi or wait for  new solutions  (TumbleBit,Cross-Input Aggregation, Shnorr and such)  for confidential transactions.
