Tornado Cash Removed from OFAC Sanctions List

Tornado Cash was officially removed from the OFAC sanctions list on March 21, 2025, by the U.S. Treasury Department. This action followed a court ruling against the sanctions imposed earlier on smart contracts.

The delisting of Tornado Cash from the OFAC sanctions list marks a vital moment for both decentralized finance and privacy technologies, sparking a significant market reaction.

The U.S. Treasury removed Tornado Cash from its Specially Designated Nationals list, including several Ethereum wallet addresses. This move follows a federal order after a court ruling against previously imposed sanctions.

“The OFAC exceeded its authority by designating Tornado Cash’s immutable smart contracts.” – U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit

Court findings indicated OFAC overstepped by targeting immutable smart contracts. Such actions have significant implications for the enforcement approach to blockchain-based applications. Federal compliance with the court’s decision involved necessary legal reversals.

Market reaction was immediate, with Tornado Cash’s native token, TORN, experiencing a surge of up to 73%. Privacy-focused technologies within decentralized finance see a revived interest benefiting from this delisting. However, concerns remain over state-sponsored hacking.

While Tornado Cash protocol has been freed from restrictions, sanctions persist for its founder, Roman Semenov. His designation excludes cyber activities but retains a North Korea-related tag. The Treasury asserts its ongoing vigilance against illicit financial activities.

This case signifies potential shifts in regulatory approaches, emphasizing the complexity of enforcing rules on decentralized technologies. The court ruling may set a precedent, influencing how technology and law interact within the crypto sphere.
