🇦🇷 The Argentine developer Federico Carrone said he would contribute USD 500,000 to the legal fund of Roman Storm amid the possibility that the co-founder of Tornado Cash faces a new trial in New York.
🇹🇷 In a post on X, Carrone said that his experience in Turkey led him to decide to increase his donation to Storm from USD 50,000 to USD 500,000.
🚨 The developer reported that he had been detained by Turkish authorities for approximately 24 hours for alleged connections to an Ethereum privacy protocol and for "misusing" it.
🤑 "After what happened to me, I need to take a clear stand. I understand that the Ethereum Foundation will match donations up to another USD 500,000 for the defense of Roman Storm, which means our contribution can have double the impact. Our team is currently moving money to execute the transaction."
