US Court Drops Hammer: Tornado Cash Sanctions Lawsuit Officially Dead

Privacy just took a hit—or scored a win, depending who you ask. A US court just axed the lawsuit challenging Treasury's sanctions against crypto mixer Tornado Cash. No appeals, no do-overs. Game over.

### The Fallout for Crypto Anonymity

Regulators call it a 'win' against money laundering. Privacy advocates see it as another nail in the coffin for financial freedom. Meanwhile, crypto traders shrug and keep using offshore mixers—because Wall Street never launders money, right?

### What’s Next for Privacy Tech?

Developers are already forking protocols. Exchanges are tightening KYC. And the usual suspects in Congress are drafting bills that’ll probably break the internet (again). One thing’s clear: The crypto cat-and-mouse game just got fiercer.

Final thought: If you think this ruling stops illicit crypto flows, we’ve got a 'fully compliant' bank in Cyprus to sell you.
