Matt Price, Global Intelligence and Investigations Director at Binance, emphasized the transparency of Blockchain technology in a video shared by Binance. He debunked the common myth that cryptocurrencies are anonymous and thus facilitate illegal activities: 
<blockquote>
The myth that crypto is anonymous and enables illegal activities is actually the opposite. Transactions are recorded publicly, leaving a permanent record of what really happened. Inspectors using investigative tools, investigative powers, legal information request powers can often identify who is conducting these activities easier than in a traditional financial investigation.
