Topic: Do you use Tor? - page 6. (Read 3559 times)
I was very impressed with Verge. To use the wallet you have to open a Tor first.
Using TOR to send your Bitcoin transactions will improve your privacy, but is only one factor.
The main problem with Bitcoin transactions and anonymity is less about whether you used TOR or not when sending the transaction, but rather that Bitcoin transactions themselves are easily traceable. So if you want to improve the privacy of your future transactions, it is recommended to send your coins to a mixer and from there move them to a new wallet (with a whole different set of addresses).
And then, of course, there's Monero. Not as widely accepted, but a good choice for privacy conscious transactions.

This says it all. You can use TOR, but if there's somebody actually trying to trace you they'll simply sit and wait for you to use an exchange or buy something online.
I haven't heard of a case when an institution would try to use IP address to trace the owner of a bitcoin address. It's much easier to trace it back to an exchange, get the buyer's ID and go from there, or wait for it to end up on an exchange and do the same thing. Even if the person they get to isn't you it might be someone related to you or that you've done business with.
I tried it out of curiosity once. I found it borderline unusable but of course there are sound reasons for that. I don't see how it could be viable for fast moving stuff like trading or gambling.
And I've heard so much about TOR honeypots and leaking IPs that I'd never have full faith in it anyway. It's always going to be the number one target for cracking. On top of that I don't really give a shit about anonymity. If I did it's almost certain I blew that years ago.

And mixer of bitcoin it's good for anonymous transactions?

As quite a few of you gamble in cryptos casinos from countries where gambling is forbidden, I was wondering if you use TOR to hide your identity. Or if you use it as well, even if you don’t gamble, to avoid your movements being traced when operating with btc and other cryptocurrencies.
I've used TOR before, but I don't really dabble much in the darknet market scene, so I don't have much use for it. In most cases, I'd prefer to use a no-log VPN (or TOR browser in conjunction with a no-log VPN).

TOR isn't enough to make your transactions anonymous. It's pretty well known by now that governments and law enforcement agencies are running a lot of TOR exit nodes, monitoring activity. The best option for anonymity we have right now is Monero.
