## How is anonymity achieved?
|
||||
|
||||
Tornado Cash achives anonymity by breaking the on-chain link between source and destination addresses through "anonymity pools". These are immutable smart contracts that accepts fixed denominations of a currency, acting as what is known as a mix network. Although anonymity is only obtained with use of a "relayer", which acts as a withdrawal proxy to mask the link between destination and source addresses.

# How does Tornado Cash work?
|

# How does it work?
|
||||
|
||||
Before diving into the tutorials explaining & easing the use of Tornado.Cash, here is an overall overview of the protocol's global functioning.
|
||||
To achieve privacy, Tornado Cash **uses smart contracts that accept token deposits from one address and enable their withdrawal from a different address**. Those smart contracts work as pools that combine all deposited assets.
|
||||
|
||||
### Global overview of Tornado Cash
|
||||
Once the funds are withdrawn by a new address from those pools, the on-chain link between the source and the destination addresses is broken through anonymity. While assets are in anonymity pool the management of are non-custodial, individuals are the only ones in the control of their assets given that sufficient operational security is maintained.
|
||||
|
||||
To achieve privacy, Tornado Cash **uses smart contracts that accept token deposits from one address and enable their withdrawal from a different address**. Those smart contracts work as pools that mix all deposited assets.
|
||||
**Classic anonymity pools**
|
||||
|
||||
Once the funds are withdrawn by a complete new address from those pools, the on-chain link between the source & the destination is broken. The withdrawn crypto-assets are therefore anonymized.
|
||||
* When a user transfers assets into a pool (deposit), a private note is generated. This private note works as **a private key or secret** to access the assets
|
||||
|
||||
While tokens are in a Tornado Cash pool, the custody remains in users’ hands. Users, therefore, have complete control over their tokens.
|
||||
**Nova anonymity pools**:
|
||||
|
||||
**For traditional Tornado Cash fixed-amount pools**:
|
||||
* Asset management is fufilled through a shielded key, which can be generated signing a message with an Ethereum address for reusable access
|
||||
* Custody is obtained by either transferring assets to the pool or registering a shielded key to recieve shielded transfers
|
||||
|
||||
* When a user puts funds into a pool (a.k.a. the deposit), a private note is generated. This private note works as a private key for the user to access those funds later. To withdraw them, the same user can use a different address - an old or a new one - and recover his/her funds thanks to this private key.
|
||||
The strength of such protocol is linked directly to its amount of users and the size of its pool. The more users deposit into the pool the larger the probability of correlation. However, to ensure anonymity individuals must be concious of:
|
||||
|
||||
**For Tornado Cash Nova, the new ETH pool with arbitrary amounts & shielded transfers**:
|
||||
* Using a relayer for withdrawal gas fees and maintain a shielded balance
|
||||
* Waiting for sufficient subsequent deposits for decreased chances of probability or relation to the withdrawal
|
||||
|
||||
* Funds are directly linked to a given wallet address. There is no private note or key. Users can access their funds by connecting to the pool with the appropriate address.
|
||||
* Custody is either acquired by the act of depositing tokens into the pool or by registering in the pool & receiving shielded transfers from another address.
|
||||
_For a more detailed explaination see guide_ [_Tips to remain anonymous_](guides/opsec.md)_._
|
||||
|
||||
The strength of such protocol is linked directly to its number of users and the size of its pool. The more users deposit into the pool the merrier. However, to preserve privacy & anonymity, the user must keep in mind some basic rules, such as:
|
||||
### Zero knowledge
|
||||
|
||||
* Using a relayer to pay gas at withdrawal;
|
||||
* Allowing time to lapse between the deposit & the withdrawal action;
|
||||
* Mixing its funds with the crowd by waiting for several transactions before recovering its assets.
|
||||
Tornado Cash uses Zero-Knowledge Succinct Non-Interactive Argument of Knowledge (zkSNARK) to maintain non-custodial shielded transactions.
|
||||
|
||||
_More recommendations are provided in:_ [_Tips to remain anonymous_](tips-to-remain-anonymous.md)_._
|
||||
|
||||
### Contribution of zk-SNARK and hashing process
|
||||
|
||||
Tornado.Cash uses Zero-Knowledge Succinct Non-Interactive Argument of Knowledge (also called zk-SNARK) to verify & allow transactions.
|
||||
|
||||
To process a deposit, Tornado.Cash generates a random area of bytes, computes it through the [Pedersen Hash](https://iden3-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/iden3\_repos/research/publications/zkproof-standards-workshop-2/pedersen-hash/pedersen.html) (as it is friendlier with zk-SNARKs), then sends the token & the 20 MiMC hash to the smart contract. The contract will then insert it into the Merkle tree.
|
||||
To process a deposit a random slice of bytes is generated by the individual, it is then encrypted using [Pedersen hashing](https://iden3-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/iden3\_repos/research/publications/zkproof-standards-workshop-2/pedersen-hash/pedersen.html). Pedersen hashing is optimised for the arimithic circuits for zero-knowledge proofs and maintain low transactional costs in the Ethereum virtual machine. Depositing is fufilled through inputing the hash for insertion into the Merkle tree.
|
||||
|
||||
To process a withdrawal, the same area of bytes is split into two separate parts: the **secret** on one side & the **nullifier** on the other side. The nullifier is hashed. This nullifier is a public input that is sent on-chain to be checked with the smart contract & the Merkle tree data. It avoids double-spending for instance.

# Compliance tool
|
||||
|
||||
By design, everything is public on the blockchain, which can deprive users from their right to privacy. Anyone can have access to everyone’s whole transaction history. In response to this core problem,Tornado.Cash protocol allows cryptocurrency holders to earn back their privacy and gain anonymity. Indeed, it enables users to break the on-chain link between a source and a destination address.
|
||||
By design, everything is public on the blockchain, which can deprive users from their right to privacy. Anyone can have view everyone elses entire financial history. Tornado Cash breaks the on-chain link between the source and destination address, although not at expense of non-compliance. The right of privacy lies in the ability to have control over the information we provide and to whom we provide it.
|
||||
|
||||
However, maintaining privacy and preserving financial freedom should never come at the expense of non-compliance. The right of privacy lies in the ability to have control over the information we provide and to whom we provide it.
|
||||
|
||||
To this extent, **Tornado.Cash Compliance Tool enables users to prove the origin of their funds.** Thanks to the Note generated after each deposit, **this tool will issue a cryptographically verified proof of transactional history** using the Ethereum addresses used to deposit & withdraw assets.
|
||||
|
||||
You can visit the Medium post related to this tool to learn more about its development and launch: [**compliance tool Medium post announcement**](https://tornado-cash.medium.com/tornado-cash-compliance-9abbf254a370).
|
||||
|
||||
Therefore, if you are ever in need to prove the origin of held assets withdrawn from one of Tornado.Cash pools, we invite you to use the compliance tool.
|
||||
To this extent, **the compliance tool enables users to prove the origin of their funds through selective disclourse.** Each note translates to a unique deposit, **this tool will issue a cryptographic proof of a deposit** allowing a third party to authethicate one's transactional profile.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## How to use the compliance tool?
|
||||
|
||||
With each deposit made through the application, a new Note is generated by the protocol. This Note is necessary to withdraw the deposited assets later on any withdrawal address. It is this same Note that, if needed, allow users to generate a Compliance Report to prove the origin of their assets.

|
||||
|
||||
### After withdrawal
|
||||
|
||||
If the note was spent (i.e. assets were withdrawn to a given address using the note), the compliance tool will complete the information above by adding:
|
||||
|
||||
* Transaction hash of the withdrawal;
|
||||
* The destination address;
|
||||
* The Nullifier Hash.
|
||||
* Transaction hash of the withdrawal
|
||||
* The destination address
|
||||
* The nullifier hash
|
||||
|
||||
The nullifier hash is a public input that is sent on-chain to get checked with the smart contract & the Merkle tree data to allow the withdrawal.
|
||||
The nullifier hash is a public input that is sent on-chain to get checked with the smart contract and authenthicate the presence of the note's secret in the Merkle tree for the withdrawal.

|
||||
|
||||
Therefore, the tool allows users to re-link source & destination addresses in order to prove transaction history for assets used on Tornado Cash.

### How to exchange AP
|
||||
|
||||
1\. Navigate over to the “Swap” tab on the mining page which can be accessed through the second navigation bar from the top of the page.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2\. Enter the amount of AP requested to exchange or select the “Maximum” option to convert your active balance. Below this input, information regarding the current AP/TORN rate and reward output will be displayed. Provide an address of preference to receive the reward, finalise by generating the proof and submitting the transaction through a relayer or not.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
3\. If all steps were followed correctly, TORN will be transferred to the address of preference provided in step 2 of this section.

# TORN
|
||||
|
||||
## Token
|
||||
TORN is an ERC20 compliant token with a fixed supply that governs the protocol, token holders can submit proposals and vote to contribute.
|
||||
|
||||
TORN is an ERC20-compatible token with a fixed supply that governs Tornado Cash, TORN holders can make proposals and vote to change the protocol via governance.
|
||||
|
||||
**Here’s how the initial distribution of TORN would break down:**
|
||||
**Initial token distrbution**
|
||||
|
||||
* **5% (500,000 TORN):** Airdrop to early users of ETH pools
|
||||
* **10% (1,000,000 TORN):** Anonymity mining for ETH pools, distributed linearly over 1 year
|
||||
* **55% (5,500,000 TORN):** DAO treasury, will be unlocked linearly over 5 years with 3 month cliff
|
||||
* **30% (3,000,000 TORN):** Founding developers and early supporters, will be unlocked linearly over 3 years with 1 year cliff
|

|
||||

||||
|
||||
|

|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Airdrop
|
||||
Users who have believed in Tornado Cash from early on should have a say in governing the protocol. For this reason, early adopters of the protocol did receive an airdrop of TORN.
|
||||
Early adopters who used in Tornado Cash were allocated a share in governing the protocol on launch to aspire for an equitable demographic in the asset's economics.
|
||||
|
||||
TORN has been airdropped to [all addresses](https://github.com/tornadocash/airdrop/blob/master/airdrop.csv) that made deposits into ETH pools before block `11400000`. TORN were airdropped in the form of a non-transferable TORN voucher (vTORN) that can be redeemed 1:1 to TORN within 1 year, from December 18, 2020, to December 18, 2021. TORN that aren’t redeemed will be swept into the governance contract after 1 year and become part of the DAO Treasury. Redeemed TORN will be available immediately.
|
||||
The [early adopter addresses](https://github.com/tornadocash/airdrop/blob/master/airdrop.csv) that made deposits into ETH pools before block `11400000` were allocated a non-transferable TORN voucher (vTORN) that could be redeemed 1:1 to TORN within 1 year, from December 18, 2020, to December 18, 2021. The expired assets are then reallocated back to the treasury and participants that failed to claim can no longer redeem.
|
||||
|
||||
The airdropped amount depends on users’ deposit size and age — larger deposits and older deposits will receive more TORN. Multipliers for deposit size are logarithmic:
|
||||
The airdropped amount depended on a users’ deposit size and age, larger deposits and older deposits would have a greater allocation. Multipliers for deposit size are logarithmic:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
So a 100 ETH deposit get twice as many tokens as a 1 ETH deposit. The multiplier allows large and small users of Tornado Cash to both have a say in governance.
|
||||
So that a larger deposits like 100 ETH only got twice as many tokens as a 1 ETH deposit, the multiplier aspired to reduce any skews by focusing on proactive usage and not purely volume.
|
||||
|
||||
The exact curve for the time multiplier looks like this:

Since the execution of [proposal #10](https://etherscan.io/address/0xEC2412368be52107Fa549c3fb78DE1e3e6bF18EB#code), an additional utility was enabled for the asset aside from governance. Through the deployment of the relayer registry, which acts as a official store of active relayers. This is then referenced on the frontend through referencing the registry contract. Relayers pay a percent of withdrawal fees to governance to have an active registration in the registry.

Since the execution of [proposal #10](https://etherscan.io/address/0xEC2412368be52107Fa549c3fb78DE1e3e6bF18EB#code), an additional utility was enabled for TORN aside from governance.

Relayers pay a percent of withdrawal fees to governance to have an active registration in the registry.
|
||||
|

The fee mechanisim functions by relayers locking a listing amount (currently `300 TORN`) and everytime a withdrawal is processed the registry fee (currently `0.3%` of the relayer's arbitary fee) is deducted from their locked balance. This fee is then distributed proportionally to tokenholders locked into the governance contract. Relayers must keep a locked balance greater than the minimum balance (currently `40 TORN`) to be marked as an active relayer and be recommended on the frontend.

# More anonymity tips
|
||||
|
||||
For this section, we refer you to the [tips-to-remain-anonymous.md](../general/guides/opsec.md "mention") tutorial as a first step. All points mentioned in this tutorial still apply to Tornado Cash Nova.
|
||||
|
||||
As a quick reminder, these tips include:
|
||||
|
||||
* Using of a VPN,
|
||||
* Not sharing the shielded key or the access to this shielded address
|
||||
* If downloaded, keeping this shielded key in a safe place,
|
||||
* Deleting data after use,
|
||||
* Avoiding the use of the same API token for all transactions,
|
||||
* Being patient between the moment of deposit & withdrawal,
|
||||
* Using multiple addresses for withdrawal.
|
||||
|
||||
However, with its new features, Tornado Cash Nova requires further precautions to maintain anonymity.
|
||||
|
||||
## Use of relayers
|
||||
|
||||
Gas fees payments are necessary for transactions. For shielded transfers & withdrawals, two payment methods are available to provide ETH for gas fee. You can either **connect your wallet or use a relayer**.
|
||||
|
||||
Going through your wallet for this gas fee can compromise the anonymity of the transaction if used ETH are linkable to your identity. Therefore, **it is recommended to use a Relayer to preserve privacy**
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Custom withdrawal amounts
|
||||
|
||||
The customized amounts feature offers more flexibility & freedom of usage. However, it can compromise your privacy if used carelessly.
|
||||
|
||||
### Choosing predefined amounts for withdrawals
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Choosing one of the four predefined amounts is strongly recommended as it will allow your withdrawal to blend with the crowd and remain anonymous.
|
||||
|
||||
You still have the freedom to `Set custom` to withdraw a customized amount of you choice. However, depending on the chosen amount, a connection might be deduced between your initial fund transaction and your withdrawal if:
|
||||
|
||||
* the initially funded amount & the withdrawn amount are exactly the same,
|
||||
* the funded & withdrawn amounts can easily be linked through a sum.
|
||||
|
||||
For instance, a deposit of 0.42 ETH can be linked to a withdrawal of exactly 0.42 ETH or two times 0.21 ETH, which might compromise anonymity. However, with a withdrawal of 0.391 ETH, privacy is better preserved as there is no obvious link between the 0.42 & 0.391 amounts.
|
||||
|
||||
The custom option should only be chosen with full knowledge of these facts and in complete confidence in your actions.
