⚖️ Privacy tool or laundering machine? Tornado Cash co-founder goes on trial

Roman Storm, co-founder of Tornado Cash, is now facing trial in Manhattan — accused of enabling over $1B in money laundering via the crypto mixer.

🌀 Tornado Cash was used by hackers like North Korea’s Lazarus Group.

But many argue it’s just open-source code — and that developers shouldn’t be criminalized for how others use it.

This trial could set a historic precedent for:

👨‍💻 Developer responsibility

🔐 On-chain privacy

🏛️ Freedom of code

Where do you stand? Is this about protecting users — or punishing innovation?
