title: Know which exchange or wallet is behind a BTC address?
body: <p>According to ciphertrace guys they are able to know origin and destination of a BTC transaction using addresses: exchanges (Binance, Coinbase,..), Darkenet marketplace, Gambling, wallet (Wasabi, Ledger,..).</p>
  <p>How can they do this?
  Does it mean that when I generate a new BTC address on Binance / Wasabi / Ledger wallets, <strong>this address is not completely random</strong> but belongs to a tagged pool of address pre-attributed to Binance/Ledger/Wasabi etc?</p>
  <p>If yes, this is scary!
  If no, how do they know this information?</p>
