Monero breaks linking by using 15 decoys and one real transaction. So anyone trying to figure your transaction out only has a 1/16 chance and if they go the wrong path they will have 16 other paths to follow. Like a maze, there are tons and tons of dead ends but only one correct way out
Interesting. And how does the system knows who got the real coins? 15 dummy accounts and one real? And can it be backtracked if a dedicated agency in possession of a heavy wrench convinces my arms dealer to give up his keys?
Another thing to read up.
If you buy XMR on an exchange and transfer it out, then the government subpoenas the exchange for the logs (and the logs even exist), the most they can find out is the wallet address the exchange sent the money to. There’s no way to track where you sent the money from there.
There is no trace of the transaction in the exchange? No way of getting a connection between credit card and Monero transactions?

nou, they can know from the exchange and know how much you took out but as soon as it leaves the exchange the trace is over
