Dear Crypto Community & Privacy Advocates,

This is an urgent call: My trial begins July 14, and we’re facing a critical shortfall. I need to raise $500K in the next few days and $1.5M within a couple of weeks to sustain our fight - covering escalating legal fees, expert witnesses, and research as the case extends beyond the initial 2-week projection.

My team is working nonstop to defend code as free speech, protect software development , and push back against government overreach that threatens us all.

If you can help, please donate now - every contribution counts in this battle for our freedoms: https://t.co/IYqXdqjieT

This is urgent 🚨

Thank you. 🙏

😔💔 I’m Roman Storm. I poured my soul into Tornado Cash—software that’s non-custodial, trustless, permissionless, immutable, unstoppable. In 31 days, I face trial. The DOJ wants to bury DeFi, saying I should’ve controlled it, added KYC, never built it. SDNY is trying to crush me, blocking every expert witness. If I lose, DeFi dies with me. The dream of financial freedom, the code I believed in—it all fades into darkness. I’m fighting, but the weight is unbearable. This isn’t just my end; it’s ours. 🪦 #SaveDeFi #TornadoCash

My name is Roman Storm, and I am one of the founders of Tornado Cash, a non-custodial privacy protocol.

I am being prosecuted for writing open-source code that enables private crypto transactions in a completely non-custodial manner. This prosecution represents a terrifying criminalization of privacy.

The charges against me threaten to criminalize software development itself. If successful, the implications could extend far beyond the crypto industry, impacting every software developer. I face up to 45 years in prison on charges including operating an unlicensed money-transmitting business, conspiracy to commit money laundering, and sanctions evasion.

This case has already had a chilling effect on developers working on software tools. Recently, a developer filed a lawsuit against the DOJ, seeking relief because my case has made them fearful of releasing new software.

Additionally, there is significant confusion around the 1960 charge (operating an unlicensed money-transmitting business), as different government agencies have conflicting interpretations of the law.

“This prosecution threatens to criminalize software development itself,” said Keri Axel of Waymaker LLP, my legal counsel.

American entrepreneur and politician @VivekGRamaswamy commented, “You can’t go after the developers of code. What you actually need to do is go after individual bad actors who are breaking the laws that already exist.”

Multiple amicus briefs have been filed in support of my defense by the DeFi Education Fund (@fund_defi), Coin Center (@coincenter), and Blockchain Association (@BlockchainAssn):

The 5th Circuit Court has already ruled that Tornado Cash sanctions were unlawful:

However, the DOJ has dismissed this ruling as irrelevant:

My trial is set for April 14, 2025.

So, they are going to put the Tornado Cash developer in jail for 6 years.

The main rationale for the charges is that criminals & state hackers used the open source code he wrote.

But one would also assume that these bad actors used computers with operating systems.

Are the authorities going to pursue charges against the devs of Microsoft because it's the OS of choice for hackers?

But, let's take it up a notch...

People have used cars in order getaway from the scene of bank robberies. They have been involved in high speed chases which have had people killed.

Should we pursue charges against car manufacturers?

The logic is the same but the outcomes are different. Yet again an example as to why privacy isn't a right they want to afford us.

My two sats.
