Tor

Tor, originally called The Onion Router, is a decentralized network that encrypts all user traffic between its servers.The network provides anonymity to anyone that uses it. Because of that feature, the Tor network has become famous for providing access to the Dark Web

Example

Some cryptocurrency users route transactions through Tor to add an extra layer of privacy, making it harder to link wallet addresses to real-world identities.
