Using Tor with Instant Crypto Exchanges: What Actually Matters
Tor helps, but it isn't magic. Pairing network privacy with on-chain hygiene is what keeps you private.
Tor hides your IP so an exchange can't tie your order to your household. But if you then send funds from a KYC'd exchange account, that chain link exists on-chain and Tor can't clean it. Privacy compounds — every step either helps or leaks.
Practical stack for a private swap: fresh receiving address, funds that never touched KYC rails, Tor (with our onion mirror) or a no-log VPN, and a privacy-capable wallet for storage. Each layer is cheap; together they close the usual trace.
One more thing: VeilSwap keeps no logs beyond what processing and refunds require — and we purge on a rolling basis. But we can't make you untraceable on the chain itself; that's the wallet's job. Pair the two and you're actually private.
