Using coin mixers, privacy-focused wallets, or creating new wallet addresses for each transaction can help reduce traceability. Just be cautious, as misuse of these techniques can raise red flags.

1. Run a full node transaction
It is confusing. Running a full node to verify blocks and transactions from other nodes (peers) on Bitcoin network. You can run a full node without making any of your transactions with your full node.

Run a full node, it's not run a full node transaction. You run a full node, and if you want to make a transaction, you broadcast it with your full node.

To make it more safer for you and at the best convenience for your practice, i have three suggestions in which you can use to avoid these, but before that, try to erase from your mind the mentality of using a centralized exchange or custodial wallet as you may call it, now to the simple procedures to take.

1. Run a full node transaction
2. Make use of coin join
3. Use different wallet address on each transaction.

Which is the technique to avoid transactions link to a wallet?
When you have kyc on certain cex and you send your fund from non custodial to custodial exchange then its already linked unless you will never use any of cex account. It means full decentralization embracing more non custodial wallet and dex for processing your coins and tokens.

Its hard to maintain that but its indeed possible. Surely there are some here operates like that.

Choose the wallet that has these features;
-non-custodial
-open source
-has Coinjoin
-it can generate new address when you receive Bitcoin.
-lastly, Tor Network friendly.

What do you mean by transaction linking because your post last information. Are you planning to trade without being seen or your transaction not link to you? If this, coinjoin services is what you need. There are many of them out there although this forum does not support mixers anymore so you have to look for them elsewhere.

Although, your post seems like you are referring to sharp practices in this forum, in that case you want to start farming accounts and you are asking for how not to link those accounts? Come clean so we know what you want and how to help or advise you.

You can use Lightening Network for your transactions. They won't appear on the Blockchain so nobody (except LN nodes maybe) will be able to track them
Another mean is to use an exchange without KYC or DEXs and to change your BTCs to other cryptos there and to send your cryptos to another exchange , there to change back your cryptos to Bitcoin, then to send them to a new address never used or to a new wallet.

That's a good answer not mentioned before. As long as these transactions don't appear in the blockchain, and the receiver doesn't know how many sats you have in your wallet, it is great for micro-transactions like buying groceries or sending money to your friends.

On the contrary of many users' belief, using LN can be very easy if you trust in Apps like Muun, WalletOfSatoshi and the like. Just check the data they collect and make your own decision: WOS collects your email address, but allegedly for marketing purpose, so if you don't log in chances are that they won't have access to it. Muun collects your device's ID but supposedly they don't link it to your identity.

OP's question is a bit vague for me.

Transactions do not contain any  information about wallets that send them.

I can pair my Passport 2 with Sparrow, Electrum, Specter etc. and send  equaled trxs, equaled in a sense that there is no way to say from which wallet it were sent.

I think OP has to specify what he meant by wallet.

You can't easily avoid the linking of bitcoin transactions when the blockchain is transparent in case of transaction historical traces even though the users ID's are pseudonymous.
Perhaps it scrutinizes users securities in terms of p2p features since the blockchain is decentralized. Moreover bitcoin linking transaction would do you no harm but facilitates to enhance your transactions efficiently.
Maybe you should have a review towards what you intended to ask here because I feel you mean linking of wallets.

Anyway, i think the blockchain technology is transparent enough to show the addresses used to send transactions from one wallet to another so it may be impossible to perform transactions without tracing the wallet addresses being used...
But as long as the addresses haven't been mentioned or posted in public, no one will ever know who the owner of BTC addresses A and B.
In simple terms, OP needs to learn the terms that have been mentioned by everyone for him to extract it first. Don't get overwhelmed with the information that's been told to you because you might have hard time in understanding what they are and how they works.

Use your UTXOs separatedly, and use change addresses, and use Bitcoin full node, with Tor connection if possible.

More information on privacy of your transactions.
Bitcoin privacy resources.
General guidelines for sending BTC transactions
Quote
Don't send round numbers
Don't send round amounts. Instead of sending 0.1 BTC, send 0.10125

Use Bitcoin Mixers
Mixers add an additional layer of privacy to a transaction to avoid exposing user identities.

Avoid reusing wallets
Don't send your Bitcoin change to the same address you use for sending bitcoins.

Avoid including many of your addresses in one transaction
Any time you can, try not to send BTC from your various Bitcoin addresses.

Avoid using "send everything" option
If you are withdrawing funds from an exchange, it is okay.
If you're moving funds to another wallet, do not transfer the whole amount to another address. It greatly compromises your privacy.

I feel you are confusing public keys with addresses.
When you open your wallet in electrum and connect to a server, electrum sends your addresses (not your public keys) to the server, so that it can gets your balance and transaction histroy.
Your public keys are revealed only if you broadcast a transaction.

I actually understand what you're trying to say and I agree with it. yes electrum servers will only see your public key when you broadcast a transaction nonetheless what they see at first is your addresses but the reason I made use of public keys directly to address the OP's question is because OP is asking how to avoid linking a transaction to a wallet and that means the if the person isn't running his own node , when he broadcasts a transaction he will definitely end up sharing his public key with e nodes anyway.

In addition to all these the address needs to also be kept off grid to ensure that it's relationship with a change address isn't used to trace the wallet once again.

Also since your public keys is part of the details nodes you are connected to can see, you could actually set up your own node for a better privacy. making use of a VPN helps too but it only masks your IP address which is not good enough if you want to kill traces.

Which is the technique to avoid transactions link to a wallet?
First thing you need to have in any of your bitcoin wallets is using good address management, that means creating labels with naming addresses and transactions.
That is possible to do in Electrum, Sparrow and is hardware wallets with Trezor Suite app for example.
Another thing you can do is using Bitcoin Silent Payments for more privacy, one of the wallets supporting that is Cake wallet.
Be careful with your change address because that can also link your addresses, and don't consolidate coins from separate addresses.
Last thing you can use is coinjoin, joinmarket or other mixing tools, and privacy coins.

All transactions done on the bitcoin network is recorded on the network in the form of blocks and these blocks link up to form a chain known as a the block chain and that means you can't make transactions without taking records of them either to be recorded later on the network or immediately.  The best you can do is kill the traces of that transaction to that wallet. One way is to make coin join transactions.

Also since your public keys is part of the details nodes you are connected to can see, you could actually set up your own node for a better privacy. making use of a VPN helps too but it only masks your IP address which is not good enough if you want to kill traces.

I assume you are asking this question to avoid linking alt accounts if transactions are sent to a particular wallet address. Anyway, i think the blockchain technology is transparent enough to show the addresses used to send transactions from one wallet to another so it may be impossible to perform transactions without tracing the wallet addresses being used...

All you have to do is avoid any linkage to addresses owned by  you , most  of it has been discussed already but I just want to add this incase you're using exchange along with a non custodial wallet like Electrum,
Once you send from a non custodial address to  an exchange(or vice-versa) , then the exchange already knows the identity  behind such address and any form of linkage from that address( coming from exchange or linked to exchange)  to multiple address could reveal alot about your privacy.. it's a good practice to use an address for receive "once"..hence,  once you provide a form of connection from an exchange to that particular  addreess in your wallet then never provide any form of connection to other addresses using that same address, I hope you get this..

Use coin control.
Assume that you have received bitcoin in two transactions and now you have 2 UTXOs. UTXO A is assosiated with address A and UTXO B is assosiated with address B.
If you spend all you fund in a single transaction, anyone checking your transaction can know that addresses A and B are owned by the same person.

Run your own node.
If you use a SPV wallet like electrum without running your own node, you have to connect to a server provided by a third party and the server owner can know that your addresses belong to the same person. If you connect to the server with your real IP, they can link your addresses to your IP address too.

Bitcoin transactions are recorded and stored publicly on a blockchain there by making the  transactions from the address visible. To avoid linking two addresses together transaction should never be sent or received between this two or more addresses. Another thing is to never use both addresses to either send coins or receive bitcoins from another address.

When sending out bitcoin make sure both addresses aren’t used by the wallet as sending addresses due to compounding of transactions to get the total bitcoin needed to send. To easily avoid all of these use different addresses whenever you’re making transactions

It's good you connect your electrum on TOR for privacy and always change your receiving address each time you want to receive bitcoin. If you can run your own node, that will be better.
