Tor is now ready to support and accept Bitcoins (BTC) through the Lightning Network. In support of the programs from the crypto-charitable organization The Giving Block, Tor Project, which is behind the anonymous network of Tor, said that it is beginning to accept donations in bitcoins through Lightning Network.

It was recommended to use BottlePay crypto wallet for donations, because it’s faster and you don’t need to waste you time on copying the wallet address just check Tor projects from the list.

But it’s worth recalling that the project provides an additional option, donations can be made not only in cryptocurrency, but also in fiat equivalent, the application supports convenient conversion from most popular currencies (US dollars, Canadian dollars, euros, Swiss francs and others).

Tor is free and open-source software for enabling anonymous communication. The name is derived from an acronym for the original software project name “The Onion Router”.[8][9] Tor directs Internet traffic through a free, worldwide, volunteer overlay network consisting of more than seven thousand relays[10] to conceal a user’s location and usage from anyone conducting network surveillance or traffic analysis. Using Tor makes it more difficult to trace Internet activity to the user: this includes “visits to Web sites, online posts, instant messages, and other communication forms”
