How did the Belarusian Government knows that individuals are doing p2p? Because I thought the p2p is invisible to other people so how come Belarusian government identify the people and suppressed them. Or did they track them through the addresses. I have not really gotten the method they used. Bitcoin is decentralized and that make it not a third party to see what is going on between the two transactors. Please I will need expert explanation on this matter.
Because not all Peer to Peer trading platforms are truly decentralized. They are centralized and require KYC on users. Some Peer to Peer like Remitano will have fiat currency wallet, link your account to your bank. Do you think your identity will not be passed to governments if those platforms receive official request from police, bank and government?
When you trade Peer to Peer on such platforms, you will have to make bank transfer with information given by that platform. They will have non sense transfer information like random character. Banks can smell weird signals and trace similar transfer in and out your bank account.
Your trade partner can play bad and leak information against you too.
