They arrested the developer of tornado cash. 🚨
I repeat: a man was arrested for writing code that served as a public good for people to maintain their privacy online.
They put a man in jail because bad people used his open source code.

Eleven days ago we hosted a debate on crypto values w/ a billionaire who was secretly gambling away billions of dollars of depositor funds
He was lecturing us on crypto regulation.
While committing the biggest fraud in crypto history.
