Roman Storm, co-founder of Tornado Cash, revealed that federal prosecutors in New York continue to treat lawful transactions through the cryptocurrency mixer Tornado Cash as criminal acts. This stance has lasted over 1,139 days and raises concerns about the legal risks faced by open-source software developers. The U.S. Treasury Department had proposed a rule on crypto mixers but withdrew it after acknowledging it could suppress lawful activity. Despite this, prosecutors recently filed a legal document contradicting the Treasury's position, prolonging the legal uncertainty around Tornado Cash.
