I am trying to create an anonymous wallet over the tor network as per the following:

https://darknetmarkets.org/a-simple-guide-to-safely-and-effectively-mixing-bitcoins/

I am confused how to find and create on on-line wallet on the tor network.  How would I find the wallet site and how would I know it is legit?

any tips appreciated.

AFAIK the only legit online wallet that operates a Tor Hidden Service is blockchain.info.

If you are doing things on Tor, I think it is best that you use your own desktop wallet. This is because Tor sites that offer online wallets and don't have a clearnet service are shady at best and are actually most likely scams. Instead, I recommend that you use Electrum if you want a lightweight client or Bitcoin Core if you want a full node. You can set those up to use Tor.

Why would you want to create a wallet on Tor ? Isn't the normal blokchain.info or other online wallets anonymous enough ? Roll Eyes You can simply parse the scrips from Blokchain's Api and implement a wallet too.If you wish to start from scratch,read through SPV's from Bitcoin.org documentation.

I wouldn't even use Blockchain.info over Tor. Blockchain.info is an extremely poor site to trust with any amount of money, if you search on here as well as the /r/Bitcoin subreddit on Reddit, you'll find countless threads where people have lost their bitcoins due to Blockchain.info's incompetence. Along with that, there are a bunch of other threads where people have complained that their login details have been stolen while using Blockchain.info over Tor due to rogue Tor nodes.

An alternate option I'd recommend doing would be to use Electrum + Tor in combination. You can accomplish that either by using a live boot of Tails OS, or by configuring Electrum to direct all traffic through Tor. It would be a much more secure method of creating an "anonymous" wallet.

You should look into using something like Electrum over TOR instead of using an online wallet.
You can also check out coin mixing services if that's what you're looking to do. Would be less of a hassle for you.

If you care about anonymity online you should look into ShadowCash  Smiley

I think its not the best to make a wallet in tor network better more hackers is darkweb and i think its not safe.. If you want an anonymity why you just use tor browser and make a virtual machine that you can use for storing your bitcoin than making a wallet in tor network..

what is the difference between creating wallet on clearnet or darknet ? the address owner will remain anonymous as long as he does not reveal his identity ! or it is about the IP ?

The real IP address can't be revealed if you use TOR, that is the point.
