Use Tornado.cash After Their Ban
Use the protocol in a decentralized way with IPFS.
As you may know, the US Treasury has sanctioned and banned the most famous “mixer” on Ethereum: Tornado Cash.
If you believe in free speech, freedom and privacy, then you might still need it, here’s an article to help you do that.
Introduction
Like any tool, Tornado Cash can be used for illegal activities like a Screwdriver can be used to kill someone, should all screwdrivers be banned?
Even Vitalik used Tornado Cash recently:
1. Open Tornado Cash (Using Brave & IPFS)
First of all you have to use Brave Browser, and activate IPF.
Now that you have Brave and IPFS working you can open Tornado Cash UI, Two versions are available:
Tornado Cash Classic IPFS ipfs://bafybeicu2anhh7cxbeeakzqjfy3pisok2nakyiemm3jxd66ng35ib6y5ri
Tornado Cash Nova IPFS ipfs://bafybeiho72nozeq2mi6egptem77omhujt5ovpx4jjskg5sz2ti57zlunmm
Just copy paste one of this URL in your browser.
2. Fix RPC Problem
The default RPC nodes have been banned, so you have to configure a custom RPC.
Here is a list of some public nodes:
- https://cloudflare-eth.com
- https://main-light.eth.linkpool.io
- https://eth-rpc.gateway.pokt.network
- https://api.mycryptoapi.com/eth
The whole list is accessible here:
That’s all, you are ready for use the Tornado Cash without any censorship!
