U.S. Treasury first acknowledges legal use of crypto mixers, submits report to Congress
The U.S. Treasury has officially acknowledged for the first time that crypto mixers can be used legally. In a report submitted to Congress in March, it said lawful digital asset users may use mixers to maintain financial privacy when making transactions on public blockchains. Crypto mixers are services that blend digital assets across multiple transactions, making it harder to trace the source of funds. The report reflects a recent trend in which the Trump administration has taken a more relaxed stance toward the crypto industry.
