Update on Roman's case:

Judge Failla has granted the defense's request to delay the trial until early December 2024 instead of September as scheduled.

https://www.therage.co/roman-storm-judge-grants-delay-of-tornado-cash-trial/

some positive developments in Roman's case but still a long road ahead to his trial in December. more time to prepare but also more $$$$.

anxiously waiting for the judge's rulings on the other motions to compel discovery, restrict the search of Storm's crypto wallets, and to dismiss the charges.

Update on Alexey's case in the Netherlands:

Alexey's bail was denied by the court and he will remain in jail for ~ the next year while his legal team prepares for the appeal hearing. He will not have access to a computer or the internet during that time.

the fight continues, a long year ahead for Alexey

So let me get this straight… the Left is starting to realize that they may lose important votes to the Right because of crypto regulation platforms & their response is… to shame anyone who would cross the aisle for a single issue, instead of reflecting on their own policies? 🤔

the “crypto isn’t worth crossing the aisle” argument is pretty weak to me. with the future of the industry at stake, why shouldn’t I take the livelihoods of my friends and colleagues seriously?
