Rumor has it that Terrnado is the first place on Terra that provides its users with a possibility to anonymously send $UST funds from one address to another and we confirm that it’s true! Because who wants their finances to be a matter of public knowledge?

Granted that Terrnado is taking care of the anonymity of on-chain transactions, there are some best practices our users should follow in order to improve it. Take a look at our top five privacy advice:

1.Hide behind a VPN.

One of the first best practices to follow has to be using a VPN, simply because your IP address is considered public information and is well known for many parties. You should consider hiding behind a VPN especially during the withdrawal of your funds.

2. Wait some time before you withdraw.

Another great tip would be to wait some time before withdrawing the deposited funds because when two transactions appear next to each other it may give a hint that they involve the same person. To improve anonymity, make sure there is an appropriate time gap between the deposit and the withdrawal so it is harder to correlate both transactions.

3. Use incognito mode in your browser.

While using the incognito mode, you can rest assured that none of your site data is saved and would be visible for others after you close your browser. It’s important because identical cookies may indicate that the transactions were processed by the same user.

4. Use the platform at different times.

When it comes to breaking the correlation between transactions, another useful tip is to make sure that you’re using the platform at different times. Try to spread out your transactions to reduce the chances of linkage between transactions.

5. Don’t make multiple transactions at the same time.

It’s similar to the previous rule, make sure to spread out the transactions as much as you can. It’s especially important when it comes to batches of deposits or withdrawals which can be easily traceable.

That’s it for today’s FIVE rules for improving the privacy of your transactions. They’re easy to follow and they will definitely factor into making sure that your transactions are as private and as anonymous as they can be. If you proceed with your transactions by the book, they won’t be subject to any educational guesses nor to being found by any tracking software.
