+## Configure a Tor Hidden Service for Electrs
+
+Tor needs to be active on the RaspiBlitz to use this method.  
+No port forwarding or dynamicDNS required.
+
+### On the RaspiBlitz terminal: 
+* Open the Tor configuration file:  
+`# nano /mnt/hdd/tor/torrc`
+
+* Insert the lines:
+    ```
+    # Hidden Service for Electrum Server
+    HiddenServiceDir /mnt/hdd/tor/electrs
+    HiddenServiceVersion 3
+    HiddenServicePort 50001 127.0.0.1:50001
+    ```
+* Restart Tor:   
+`# systemctl restart tor`  
+`# systemctl restart tor@default` 
+
+* Show the Tor address:  
+`# cat /mnt/hdd/tor/electrs/hostname`
+
+## On a Linux PC:
+
+* Start electrum with the Tor Browser open (proxy on port 9150):  
+`$ electrum --oneserver --server Tor_address.onion:50001:t --proxy socks5:127.0.0.1:9150`
+
+* With Tor installed and running(proxy on port 9050):   
+`$ electrum --oneserver --server Tor_address.onion:50001:t --proxy socks5:127.0.0.1:9050`
