Ameen Soleimani, co-founder of SpankChain and Reflex Labs, recently tweeted a tease for a potential revival of Tornado Cash, a controversial Ethereum transaction mixer.

Soleimani hinted at the involvement of Moloch DAO, an organization that provides grants for the development of Ethereum projects.

Tornado Cash is a transaction mixing protocol that utilizes various techniques to conceal the origin of cryptocurrency. These methods have attracted significant scrutiny from regulators, with the U.S. Office of Foreign Assets Control accusing the platform of facilitating money laundering by North Korea-linked hacking group Lazarus last year.

Despite the accusations and increased regulatory pressure, Soleimani’s tweet suggests that Tornado Cash is far from finished. This sentiment was echoed by the Moloch DAO Twitter account, which replied to Soleimani’s tweet with a picture of a tornado.

It is unclear at this time what the potential revival of Tornado Cash may entail, but it appears that Moloch DAO may be involved in funding the project’s development. Tornado Cash developer Alexey Pertsev was arrested by Dutch authorities last summer and remains detained until a hearing scheduled for this April. The circumstances surrounding Pertsev’s arrest and any potential impact on the future of Tornado Cash remain unclear.

Transaction mixing protocols like TC are designed to provide users with increased privacy and anonymity when transacting with cryptocurrencies. However, these platforms have also come under fire from regulators who argue that they enable criminal activity, including money laundering and terrorism financing. As such, the future of Tornado Cash remains uncertain as regulators continue to scrutinize the platform and other similar services.
