A premium tool that adds extra hops of history to your transaction. Stump the blacklists and help guard against unjust 3rd party account closures.
Ricochet creates additional hops between your wallet and the final destination for increased fungibility.
Every day, thousands of innocent bitcoin users are targeted by blacklists.
Centralized services suspend users and lock funds based on bogus blacklists and reports published by Blockchain Analytics companies.

Protection with the flip of a switch.
Toggle Ricochet before sending to any centralized service such as Coinbase, Shapeshift, Localbitcoins, and Gemini to add additional hops of history to your transaction.
