Tor does not provide 100% anonymity. If you use Tor servers for 3 months, you are 50% likely to be identified.
In addition, browser leaks can be used if your credentials are detected.

You need to be careful while using Tor.

Tor is no longer secure as It used to be but still that could be a great add even though I didn't see any changes in the daily statistics[1] since OpenBazaar launched so I don't think this feature could change anything. In the same time , I'm a little bit concerned because this could bring more people that care too much about privacy and that could turn OpenBazaar to another darknet marketplace.

OpenBazaar can now run through TOR and achieve a whole new level of anonymity.

according to the latest development:
  • Make it work over the onion transport
  • Create command line options for --tor and --dualstack
  • Make external API calls (blockstack resolver, exchange rates, message-retriever when fetching https) go out over Tor
  • Make bitcoin wallet implementations use Tor

so what are your thoughts about this new development for OpenBazaar?
do you think it can make it be used a lot more?
and what will be the effects on bitcoin and the price in long term?

is it the boom we needed Smiley
