CoinWorld news, according to crypto reporter Eleanor Terrett, Matt Galeotti, acting assistant attorney general of the Criminal Division of the U.S. Department of Justice, stated at Jackson Hole that if a software system possesses true decentralized characteristics, is fully automated, and facilitates peer-to-peer transactions without third parties controlling user assets, even in the presence of criminal intent, the Department of Justice will no longer bring charges against third parties based on Section 1960, subsection (b)(1)(C). This provision was previously used to charge Tornado Cash developer Roman Storm. Galeotti also stated that well-intentioned innovators need not worry about losing their freedom.
