EDIT: And it's not just the sex aspect of what you're doing. Your business model is going to be so ripe as a target for a money laundering investigation.

This is basically the only way someone can actually help sex workers. Disclose your identity and do what we're doing and they come after you.
We accept cash payments, so that eliminates a huge barrier to entry. You can use our app, verify yourself, make a date, pay in cash.
The anonymity part applies to the core team and servers so we can continue to operate the platform. We have strong privacy guarantees for workers, unlike Eros.com/Backpage/etc. (For instance, we watermark each picture with the viewing client's ID, so if they leak or repost photos, we know who to ban.)
Our gateway-to-Tor approach lets users access it without using Tor directly. (In the Android app, we will bootstrap connectivity so we don't rely on a domain as a SPOF.) [1]
Talk to sex workers: We offer real solutions to real problems. We aren't just some nerds in a basement thinking blockchain and code can solve any problems.

Not sure what you mean there. If you meant their core business is illegal, Wikipedia[0] seems to disagree (of course I wouldn't trust Wikipedia and would consult competent legal counsel if it were me).
