The U.S. Department of Justice continues to prosecute the co-founder of Tornado Cash, dismissing some charges.

The U.S. Department of Justice announced it will continue to prosecute Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Storm, accusing him of conspiring to engage in Money Laundering, evading sanctions, and transmitting criminal proceeds, while dropping some charges related to unlicensed fund transfers. Previously, Storm had claimed that his development of Tornado Cash was protected by the First Amendment, but the court ruled that using code to engage in Money Laundering is not protected by free speech.
