Samourai Wallet Devs Plead Guilty to Conspiring to Run Unlicensed Money Transmitter

Crypto privacy takes another hit as Samourai Wallet's developers fold under regulatory pressure.


The Fallout:
Founders plead guilty to operating an unlicensed money transmitter—just as the DOJ tightens its grip on privacy-focused crypto tools.


Why It Matters:
Another notch in regulators' belt as they chase 'shadowy' crypto actors. Meanwhile, Wall Street gets a free pass on billion-dollar dark pools—but that's 'totally different,' right?


The Big Picture:
Privacy tech keeps losing ground. Will Bitcoiners adapt or double down?
