[GeneralQuestions] Does Coinbase control subsequent transactions/addresses, or only the first address you withdraw to?

Trying to determine how much of a big brother they are and how necessary tumbling is.

Because yea, I'm sure tumbling does it for now, but nothing stops them from doing the same to users who withdraw to helix addresses.

PS: Is it possible for Coinbase or anyone to know if an address belongs to Helix? /u/gramsadmin

I use Coinbase. Here's how I do it.

Coinbase > mycelium wallet behind Tor > tails electrum wallet #1 > Helix > tails electrum wallet #2 > market.

I've been buying btc in this manner for several months. No issues from Coinbase.

IIRC, Helix uses single-use deposit addresses that are generated at the time of use. If that's truly the case, then Coinbase would have no idea if an address belongs to Helix or not.

But, they don't know what you bought with your bitcoins, so how would they ever prove anything unless they also intercepted a package.
