It is impossible to open your wallet but when you frequently do transaction and somehow they predict it they only so, it is better to use another ip or change your ip frequently.
Nowadays it's easy to other especially to government to trace if you have a bitcoin because our technology is hi-tect, just search what you want to know and it show you and you get information by tracking down our wallets, verifying with your original address and photo and your real account.
Maybe you are right but in most of the countries they do not do something like that, of course when they will find a way to make some regulations maybe they will try to trace us but now, for me it is just a little percent of countries where someone could do that.
no one can access his private wallet. but it would be best if you enter the internet with a different country owned IP. You should use a VPN for this.
That’s for the techies to answer. But I guess if bitcoin is regulated, the government would require everyone to declare bitcoin ownership. Perfectly fine with me. I have nothing to hide.
Bitcoin transactions are anonymous and they won't be able to track as long as you don't reveal any of your personal information or used it as you profile and banned is only makes you to use it limited or can't use it all not by getting arrested
According to a contract recently obtained by the Daily Beast, the IRS can now track bitcoin and other cryptocurrency addresses. They can do this to route out potential tax evaders. They purchased software from the blockchain analysis group Chainalysis. The tool that Chainaylsis gave the IRS is called a refactor tool. It visualizes, tracks, and analysis transactions on the blockchain.
The government cannot simply catch you if you will not cashout your Bitcoin. Use Bitcoin Core for your safety. Local coin wallets, and web wallets has a generic address marks that put you to be traced.
Bitcoin is a decentralized market and cannot be tracked easily by the government. Unless you have submitted a KYC on a centralized exchange and devolves all your information on that platform. With that government can trace if you have bitcoin asset in exchange.
How can the government discover I own BTC, let's say I'm from Venezuela where crypto is banned, what they can do to discover and arrest me?
if the government does not allow bitcoin to be accessed, there is certainly a strict sanction and certainly the government can track that possibility, but if it does not prohibit, the government cannot do anything.Yeah keep in mind your government's access to information as well. The US government can find almost everything it wants because it's in Google and Facebook's pockets, but most other governments will have a much harder time getting that kind of info out of an exchange, or even finding out that you are a part of that exchange in the first place.
Now the KYC process enables these exchanges to give over that info, but they don't necessarily do it for everyone. Only the ones who are big problems.
And like said above, if you are careful about your conversions (cash only or offshore accounts) then no one will know where it came from.
It is impossible because all the wallets are anonymous and there is no mannerism to know which billfold belongs to who in here, that is the reason of why i think that it is again impossible, bitcoin was made decentralized as a consequences dealing out realize not have the rights to know how they can smack you have bitcoins.

They can only trace it through the blockchain transaction being made but the problem is, they can only see the addresses on it. Not unless if they know your btc address only they know whether you have bitcoin or not as to the amount of bitcoin going in and out of your wallet.
Government can be able to track that you have BTC if the investor of Bitcoin submitting the documents for KYC like international passport national id card or Drivers lience to the related exchange. Government have very sound system of internate tracking or hacking to see and check the same as cited above. Many exchanges required your phone number or valid id proof to open an account. Government can use that to trace you down if you have cash out without paying govt. taxes.
Yeah right guys, the government will be able to track transactions with BTC you make when you cashing it on payment processing in your country. 
Yes this is why they introduced all those KYC and AML regulations, to be able to track people and make them pay taxes. But it is still possible to go under radar, it requires some determination and knowing what one is doing, but it is definitely possible.
The transactions on an exchange for example can be traced to a particular IP address which is a peculiar gate way or access by certain codes for any member or citizen of the country. This certainly requires high powered super computers with the ability to carry out trace inquiries on a grand scale using modern and fast technology. It is overall possible.
Your Bitcoin will not be discover by the government because it is decentralize that is why other nation is against of Bitcoin existence but still your transaction will be trace every time you will convert your Bitcoin to fiat in your local exchanges as per government regulation policy
How can the government discover I own BTC, let's say I'm from Venezuela where crypto is banned, what they can do to discover and arrest me?
it can't. Bitcoin is being managed in the blockchain and transactions are booked or being recorded, not your BTC address or not even your identity. All they can see is just the transaction history which is very discreet if you ask me.
Nowadays it's easy to other especially to government to trace if you have a bitcoin because our technology is hi-tect, just search what you want to know and it show you and you get information by tracking down our wallets, verifying with your original address and photo and your real account.
They set up KYC on purpose, citing other excuses. They want to get to complete and global tracking.
