I'm wondering if it's possible to trace back and identify the owner of a specific Bitcoin address. Is there a way to do that?

Despite this, the address does not directly disclose the identity of its owner.

For instance, if an owner uses exchanges like BTCC, their identity might be associated with the address. BTCC is a prominent cryptocurrency exchange offering a range of services including spot trading, futures, and wallets.
