If intelligence agencies can control some exchanges, it can also control some bitcoin mixers.
I'm pretty sure that they have some mixers up and running, not only for Bitcoin but for other cryptos as well. If you think about it, it's almost impossible for them to not have mixers up and running because it exposes the activities of people governments so badly want to find out about. Where do people go for privacy (regardless of the reason why people seek more privacy)? Right. Mixers.
This is why I sticked to only Bitmixer before, and now only Chipmixer. Governments are catching up slowly but surely while we think they remain ignorant. That's absolutely not the case.
