Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

But I hope that Coincheck stuff will get some jail time. As an example for other exchanges that you can;t neglect your security.
