Tornado Cash Judge Will Not Permit Van Loon Verdict to Be Discussed During Upcoming Trial

A federal judge just slammed the door on any mention of the Van Loon verdict in Tornado Cash's imminent trial—and the crypto world is bracing for impact.

Why this stings: The ruling kneecaps defense strategies banking on precedent. No safety net, no do-overs—just a high-wire act over regulatory hell.

The subtext? Regulators are playing chess while crypto founders play checkers. Another 'decentralized' project learns the hard way that anonymity cuts both ways.

Bonus jab: Meanwhile, Wall Street's laundering billions through fines-as-a-service. Priorities, people.
