Ladies and gentlemen, may I please direct your attention to: Section 110: TREATMENT OF CERTAIN NON-CONTROLLING BLOCKCHAIN DEVELOPERS. "Notwithstanding applicable law, a non-controlling blockchain developer or provider of a blockchain service shall not be treated as a money

If you do not custody consumer funds, you aren’t a money transmitter. Plain and simple. Our nonpartisan Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act, which codifies this simple concept, has been added to the CLARITY Act! Grateful to French Hill, Bryan Steil and Rep. Ritchie Torres for

😔💔 I’m Roman Storm. I poured my soul into Tornado Cash—software that’s non-custodial, trustless, permissionless, immutable, unstoppable. In 31 days, I face trial. The DOJ wants to bury DeFi, saying I should’ve controlled it, added KYC, never built it. SDNY is trying to crush

🚨 DEFI ON TRIAL: PROSECUTORS WANT TO SILENCE EXPERTS US prosecutors filed a motion to block Tornado Cash founder Roman Storm’s — Roman Storm 🇺🇸 🌪️ — expert witnesses, calling them a “Trojan horse” that would “waste jury time” and “confuse” jurors about privacy, tokenomics, & KYC 🧵

Paradigm has filed an Amicus brief on behalf of Tornado Cash developer Roman Storm, and it gets to the heart of what’s at issue here: Did Storm, or did he not, know that the US Government requires a license for developing non-custodial, peer-to-peer protocols? To be convicted,

🚨 The DOJ is trying to block every expert witness in my case — from software to sanctions. They don’t want the jury to hear the truth about how Tornado Cash actually works or why what I built was legal. ⚖️ I’m being prosecuted for the misuse of software by third parties — not

Every time I think about Roman Storm’s situation, I feel profound sadness and frustration. Here’s a guy facing years in prison for doing nothing more than publishing open-source privacy software — a public good that anyone could use freely. It’s just so fundamentally unfair. He

When a person is going to be jailed for years for publishing open-source code that has not yet been recognized by law as something illegal, this causes not just indignation - it is fear for the future of the development as such. Roman Storm 🇺🇸 🌪️ did not hide, did not break the law - he

"FinCEN guidance from 2019, which we heavily relied on, specifically states that software anonymizing providers are not subject to money transmitter licensing requirements. That gave us confidence that what we were building should not put us in a risky position." Watch full
