Jury Set to Begin Deliberations as Roman Storm’s Money Laundering Trial Draws to Close

The fate of Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Storm now rests in the hands of a New York jury—a verdict that could send shockwaves through crypto’s regulatory gray zone.

After weeks of testimony, prosecutors painted Storm as the architect of a $1.2B laundering machine, while defense attorneys argued he built tools, not criminal enterprises. The irony? Wall Street banks move more suspect money before lunch.

This case isn’t just about one developer—it’s a referendum on whether code equals culpability. The crypto world holds its breath as the jury weighs innovation against alleged financial subterfuge.
