Even this method has long been out of favor for Mixer transfers. This happened to me personally when I was a Binance user before finally leaving it. I withdrew Bitcoin directly from Mixer to one of my own addresses before depositing it to my Binance account. My deposit was frozen, and I had to wait two days before I could use it.
I guess you already know that centralized
Exchangesexchanges work with blockchain analytics companies that help them assess the risk of incoming transactions and
they flag addresses based on the
detected risk level.
ThseThose companies, like
ChinalysisChainalysis, are good at what they do and sending your coins to an intermidiary address or even more
than one won’t help you hide your tracks.
However, sending to an intermediary address is still better than nothing as it helps with plausible deniability, as I said above. When they ask, you can say the funds came from a friend or for exchange of a service. This might not always work, but it’s certainly better than
being directly linked to anothing and having no excuse toj jutify the link with the mixer.
