US prosecutors are using the Bitcoin Fog money laundering conviction as a precedent in the Tornado Cash trial against Roman Storm, the protocol's developer. They argue that operator knowledge and intent, not control over funds, determine criminal liability for crypto mixing services. This challenges the defense's claim that Tornado Cash's decentralized, autonomous smart contract nature exempts Storm from responsibility.
