Yesterday: "We're making the US the Bitcoin superpower, the crypto capital of the world". Today: "I impose a sentence of 60 months imprisonment then three years supervised release. I impose a fine of $250,000" for making Bitcoin what it should be #FreeSamourai

Isn’t it strange that just before the scheduled hearing on the Samourai motion to dismiss and the FinCEN Brady violation by the government, Judge Berman was suddenly replaced without any explanation by Judge Cote?

I thought the prosecutors from @SDNYnews were the champions of twisting words around but Judge Cote demonstrates quite the gift for gaslighting as seen in the Samourai Wallet sentencing hearing transcripts. 3 noteworthy points: 1) Judge Cote Fundamentally Misunderstands

Open letter by Average Gary to @CSexton25 regarding federal overreach in the Samourai Wallet case & how the state of Tennessee can explicitly protect digital privacy rights & developers. Also, requests Speaker Sexton to petition @POTUS for pardons. https://t.co/YDr0ovQdow

As the nation's #1 state for federalism, Tennessee has both the opportunity and obligation to resist federal overreach by enshrining the right to financial privacy in the digital age—the same privacy...

Samourai operated openly. Within the bounds of what lawyers advised was the law. The DOJ oversteps and some start victim blaming saying they "should have been anon". Don't let go of what matters here. What the DOJ has done to these bitcoin devs is corrupt. #FreeSamourai

@peterktodd Wasabi users got demixed and arrested. Whirlpool users didn't. Instead the devs were arrested because the software worked. Now go fuck yourself you filthy swine.

I will not tolerate a world in which software developers are sent to prison for crimes committed by end users. This is bullshit and I won't rest until it is corrected.

The war on crypto is not over yet. Please pardon the Samourai bitcoin devs. @realDonaldTrump @EricTrump This is the new Ross Ulbricht. It is not right that crypto devs get jail while American bankers who took bribes to lander 1 billion + did zero jail time. #FreeSamourai
Writing code shouldn’t carry a harsher sentence than laundering millions.

Okay, here we go again. Since some idiots have again decided to pile on Samourai with lies and inacurate statements, let's go ahead and debunk those. First on the list is whining about centralization while also confirming that Samourai devs were working on decentralizing the

I fucking despise people who keep saying Samourai had it coming because of their rhetoric. I asked Keonne once if he's not afraid about getting in troubles with the state because of what he says. He said "No, we have a freedom of speech in the First Amendment and staying silent

Trump's promise to bitcoin users: "I will always defend the right to self custody ..." "America will once again be a nation that protects property rights, privacy, freedom of transaction, freedom of association, and freedom of speech ..." Let's hold him to it! #FreeSamourai

The promise from Trump in Nashville turns sour for bitcoin now, with devs sentenced to hard time for a non-custodial privacy wallet. If you have influence, please speak up about this. #FreeSamourai

If fairness in the justice system depends on wealth or political value, we’ve missed the point of justice entirely.

Privacy isn't about having nothing to hide. It's about your personal safety. By putting developers of privacy tools in jail, the government is putting you personally at great risk. #FreeSamourai

The biggest innovators for Bitcoin wallets have been sentenced to 7 years for open source code. #FreeSamourai
No one one has done more to push innovation in the bitcoin wallet space than Samourai Wallet. ⚔️ - 1st wallet with decoy coinjoin with floor entropy - 1st wallet with stealth addressing - 1st mobile wallet with custom miner fees - 1st mobile wallet with RBF & CPFP

@reardencode Another lesson is how pathetic the Bitcoin community can be. The only company that stood up for them was @FOUNDATIONdvcs (please correct me if there were more, but I don't remember any). The others chose to remain silent, even though the precedent created could (and probably

"There is no acknowledgment [by Rodriguez] of the criminal world for whom digital currency is a gift." Judge Cote wanted Keonne to claim that financial privacy is for criminals – Because he didn't, she gave him the maximum sentence.
Rodriguez doesn't identify the problem Samourai sought to solve, Cote said. “There is no acknowledgement [by Rordiguez] of the criminal world for whom digital currency is a gift … There seems to be no recognition of the human suffering that was facilitated by the defendant.”
