A crypto mixer or a crypto tumbler erases the origin of a transaction by mixing the crypto with multiple other transactions and then paying the beneficiary from the mix.
Mostly, such mixers are used by either money launderers or privacy-focused users.
Typically, the usage of such crypto mixers is prohibited globally due to concerns regarding the nature of the users using those platforms.
Crypto mixers have been used to fund multiple terror organisations as well as to launder billions of dollars of illicit money.
Notable crypto mixers include Tornado Cash and the Monero Blockchain.
