NEW YORK, Jan. 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — XMRWallet, a leading web-based Monero (XMR) management platform, today announced the successful integration of full Tor Network support into its ecosystem. This update allows users to access their digital assets through a dedicated .onion address, effectively masking IP addresses and providing an essential layer of anonymity for the global Monero community.

As financial surveillance and on-chain monitoring reach unprecedented levels in 2026, the need for network-level privacy has become as critical as the privacy of the transaction itself. While Monero’s protocol naturally hides the sender, receiver, and amount, the underlying internet connection can still expose a user’s physical location or identity to Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and malicious nodes.

“Privacy is not a static feature; it is a constant race against those who wish to de-anonymize free individuals,” said Nathalie Roy, the founder of XMRWallet. “By providing a native Tor gateway, we are removing the ‘metadata trail’ that often remains visible even when using the world’s most private cryptocurrency. Our users can now connect, sync, and transact without ever revealing their original IP address to the network.”

The new integration utilizes the “Onion Router” protocol to bounce traffic through three layers of independent nodes. This architectural shift addresses a growing concern in the decentralized finance space: the vulnerability of the “entry point.” Even with sophisticated encryption, the mere act of connecting to a crypto-service can flag a user for enhanced scrutiny. By routing all interactions through the Tor circuit, XMRWallet ensures that the connection itself is as indistinguishable as the transaction data.

For XMRWallet users, this means:

Total IP Obfuscation: ISPs can no longer see that a user is accessing a Monero-related service.
Censorship Resistance: The .onion gateway ensures access in jurisdictions where privacy-focused sites may be restricted.
End-to-End Encryption: Data remains encrypted within the Tor circuit, protecting against “man-in-the-middle” attacks.

This move follows a year of significant growth for XMRWallet, which has seen increased adoption in developing countries facing economic instability and among charitable organizations that require discreet financial tools. The platform remains entirely client-side, meaning private keys and cryptographic seeds are never sent to a central server. This “trustless” model, combined with Tor, creates a comprehensive shield for users who prioritize financial sovereignty.

Furthermore, the integration is designed to be seamless. Users do not need to be technical experts to benefit from these protections; simply accessing the platform via the Tor Browser activates the enhanced security protocols automatically. This lowers the barrier to entry for high-level privacy, making professional-grade anonymity accessible to the average holder.

The Tor-enabled version of the wallet is available immediately. Users can access the official .onion link through the standard XMRWallet portal to begin transacting with enhanced anonymity.
