ETH: Tornado Cash Deposits and Withdrawals
Shown as its 2019–2022 sample; the latest readings and full history are included with Plus.
The dollars deposited into and withdrawn from Tornado Cash's mixing pools on Ethereum each day.
Why use it. Flows through mixing pools show how much value is seeking privacy on chain, and when (after exploits, sanctions news or big market moves). How to read it. Two daily lines in dollars: deposits in and withdrawals out. Withdrawals over deposits for a long stretch mean the pools are shrinking. A single day's spike is often one large holder or an exploit being laundered.
Calculation. Tornado Cash's instances on Ethereum mainnet (ETH, DAI, USDC, USDT and WBTC, each in fixed denominations), from their Deposit and Withdrawal events on CryptoKeyhole's own node. A deposit or withdrawal moves exactly one denomination of the pool. US dollar stablecoins count at face value, ether and wrapped bitcoin at the day's close of CryptoKeyhole's ETH/USD and BTC/USD indexes; the DAI-derivative (cDAI) instances are counted as notes but carry no dollar value. Only totals are computed: no address is stored or shown. Deposits and withdrawals are observed from each pool's own events; pools the protocol has retired stay in the totals, and activity on other networks is not included.
