The trial of Tornado Cash co-creator Roman Storm reached a partial verdict: convicted of illegally operating an unlicensed money transfer business, the charge of money laundering conspiracy is deadlocked and has not yet been sentenced, and Roman Storm has pleaded not guilty to sanctions violations.
Roman Storm is on trial in federal court for the Southern District of New York in a case that could set a legal precedent for how much developers should be held liable if the decentralised software they create is used illegally. US prosecutors have charged Storm with conspiracy to launder money, violate US sanctions and run an unlicensed money transfer business. If convicted, he faces up to 40 years in prison.
