The founder of Tornado Cash faces trial, prosecutors obstruct expert witnesses from appearing in court.

Odaily News The U.S. prosecutor has filed a motion to prevent expert witness Roman Storm, the founder of Tornado Cash, from testifying, claiming it would waste the jury's time and confuse the jurors' understanding of privacy, tokenomics, and KYC. The case has changed, with the Department of Justice dropping the unlicensed remittance charges but retaining the money laundering charges, and ceasing to refer to Tornado Cash as a financial institution. Storm warned: If I lose, DeFi will go down with me. The Ethereum Foundation has provided $500,000 for Storm's defense and will match $750,000 in community donations, emphasizing that privacy is normal and writing code is not a crime. The case will go to trial in less than 30 days. (Protos)
