Roman Storm, co-founder of Tornado Cash, will face a retrial moved from October 2026 to April 26, 2027, after a U.S. judge granted a defense request citing scheduling conflicts and a pending motion to overturn his 2025 conviction for operating an unlicensed money transmitting business. Storm's motion argues insufficient evidence for his conviction, while unresolved charges of money laundering and sanctions violations carry up to 20 years in prison each. The first trial ended with a split verdict, convicting Storm on one count but deadlocking on the others. The retrial will address these unresolved charges, with pretrial deadlines reset accordingly. The case highlights ongoing legal debates about developer liability in decentralized crypto protocols and has drawn support from the Ethereum community.
