At its core, it’s a smart contract-based mixing service which enhances transaction privacy by breaking the on-chain link between recipient and destination addresses. By using cryptographic proofs, Tornado Cash ensures that withdrawals from its pools cannot be directly linked to deposits, giving users enhanced privacy on the Ethereum blockchain.


TORN token is primarily used as a governance tool. Token holders can propose changes to the protocol, vote on proposals, and have a say in the future development and features of the Tornado Cash platform. By staking their TORN tokens, participants can also earn rewards.

This can be important for various reasons including personal privacy, protection against surveillance, or simply to keep one's financial transactions away from public view.
