最新报道:A federal judge ruled that Roman Storm’s defense cannot reference a related case involving Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Semenov in his upcoming trial. The defense sought to highlight the Department of Justice’s decision not to charge Semenov, arguing it undermines allegations against Storm. However, Judge Katherine Polk Failla deemed the comparison irrelevant, noting Semenov remains at large while Storm faces charges for conspiracy to commit money laundering and sanctions violations. The trial, set for March 2024, centers on whether Storm knowingly facilitated illicit transactions via the privacy tool Tornado Cash.
