Tornado Cash defense claims prosecutors misled court on legal issues involving crypto mixers
05-18 13:45
Odaily News Defense attorneys for Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Storm have accused U.S. federal prosecutors of misleading the court about the legal application of non-custodial crypto mixers, claiming that prosecutors failed to disclose key communications with the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) that could undermine the government's core allegations that Tornado Cash operated as an unlicensed money transmission business. Roman Storm's defense cited details disclosed in a case involving Samourai Wallet developers, emphasizing that FinCEN had stated that Samourai Wallet may not meet the definition of a money services business because it does not hold user funds. Given that Tornado Cash is also a non-custodial protocol, the defense believes that this position also applies. Currently, Roman Storm's legal team has requested the court to require the government to disclose all communications with FinCEN and provide materials related to the Samourai Wallet case, and the trial is expected to begin on July 14.
