PANews reported on October 14th that, according to The Block, 0xBow, the team behind the crypto privacy project Privacy Pools, is launching new tools to help Tornado Cash users isolate their funds from illicit activity. A 0xBow representative stated that Tornado Cash's proof of association is the first viable mechanism that balances privacy protection with compliance, representing both progress and a practical model for innocent Tornado users. The new protocol utilizes schemes such as zero-knowledge proofs. Users provide a note and withdrawal address, and the system generates a proof that compares it to the deposit list to exclude illicit actors. If the funds are deemed "clean," the address is added to a public registry without revealing personal data. The system has currently blacklisted over 16,000 related addresses. Privacy Pools, launched earlier this year, utilizes the concept of "association set providers" to help whitelisted users deanonymize their ERC-20 tokens without having to inject funds into common protocols like Tornado Cash, which are used by illicit actors.PANews reported on October 14th that, according to The Block, 0xBow, the team behind the crypto privacy project Privacy Pools, is launching new tools to help Tornado Cash users isolate their funds from illicit activity.

Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
