Tor

The Tor label spider allows you to crawl the Tor network for cryptocurrency labels (e.g., address, transaction hash). Before crawling the label on Tor, please ensure that Tor is available.

Tor is a network solution for anonymizing communications on the internet. Therefore, there are a lot of illegal activities using cryptocurrency for transactions in the Tor network.

Launch the following command in the console to crawl the labels from the Tor network.

scrapy crawl labels.tor \
-a out=/path/to/output/data \
-a source=http://6nhmgdpnyoljh5uzr5kwlatx2u3diou4ldeommfxjz3wkhalzgjqxzqd.onion

the argument for the Tor label spider, including:

• out: the output directory, default is ./data.

• source: the source site (.onion) for crawling the tor network.
