Crypto-Mixing Service Tornado Cash Blacklisted by US Treasury

“Tornado Cash has been the go-to mixer for cybercriminals looking to launder the proceeds of crime, as well as helping to enable hackers, including those currently under U.S. sanctions, to launder the proceeds of their cybercrimes by covering up the origin and transfer of this illicit virtual currency,” a senior department official said. “Since its creation back in 2019, Tornado Cash has reportedly laundered more than $7 billion worth of virtual currency.”
