Paxos Flagged Wasabi CoinJoin

Shortly after successfully withdrawing to a Wasabi mixing address, Paxos flagged the acccount of @McHodled and sent them the following message:

We noticed that a BTC withdrawal from your account has potentially been sent to a known Bitcoin mixing service. This type of transaction is not permitted on the platform. Please confirm whether the funds have been sent to a mixing service.

@McHodled later tweeted that it was the fixed fee address for Wasabi that gave it away:

The fixed fee address is the issue. One I was completely fine with living with until now.
