The Wall Street Journal recently published an article claiming that US authorities had "cracked" Bitcoin's anonymity, but this is a misconception. Bitcoin is pseudonymous, not anonymous, and it has long been noted within the industry. While it is possible to trace someone's identity through wallet addresses, there are still ways to overcome this pseudonymity, such as using Bitcoin mixers. The article highlights how the mainstream media often misunderstands and misreports on the cryptocurrency industry, which has been a long-standing issue for the crypto community.
