do crypto payments show receiver name to the sender?

A common misconception: crypto payments are anonymous.

When you send USDT from an exchange to another exchange, the receiving exchange often requires a 'payment ID' or 'memo' that ties the transaction to your account. The sender can see this identifier.

If you're trying to keep payments separate, understand that most on-ramps and off-ramps require some form of identification linking the transaction to a person.

exchanges are not anonymous

This is why I use self-custody wallets for transfers between my own accounts. Wallet to wallet is just an address — no name, no ID, just the transaction on-chain.

The privacy breaks when you touch an exchange or a card issuer that requires KYC.

Which exchanges show the receiver name?

Most centralized exchanges show the receiving account label in the transaction history. Binance, Coinbase, Kraken — they all display something that identifies the recipient, even if it's just 'Exchange Account'.
