While legal battles surrounding money laundering allegations continue, Ethereum-based crypto mixer Tornado Cash has gained support from Coinbase‘s chief legal officer Paul Grewal in the US. This support is particularly significant in terms of defending individual rights. Let’s take a closer look at the details of the issue.

Plaintiffs in Tornado Cash Case Deliver Strong Response

Grewal emphasized Coinbase’s significant efforts to defend privacy rights in a series of posts on the social media platform X. In the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, he acknowledged that the plaintiffs in the Tornado Cash case had provided a strong response to the arguments presented by the United States Treasury.

Grewal pointed out that the Treasury had to prove it approved an association of people with a common purpose. However, he noted that the Treasury had abandoned its previous theory and presented a new one, but it still had all the problems of the old theory.

Concerns Over Software Codes Highlighted

Grewal specifically expressed concerns about how open-source software code would be interpreted by current laws. He emphasized that these codes are not classified as property, challenging the Treasury’s limited regulatory authority over “properties”.

He also argued that any attempt to regulate Americans’ use of open-source software like Tornado Cash would require congressional authority. He stated that the Treasury should call on Congress in this regard.

Tornado Cash’s co-founder Roman Storm denied allegations of laundering over a billion dollars and violating sanctions. Storm was released on bail in August last year.

Why is Privacy Emphasis Important in the Crypto World?

Privacy is a highly valued issue in the crypto world as it helps maintain individuals’ financial autonomy by keeping their transactions confidential. Additionally, privacy enhances trust within the community by allowing users to transact without fear of surveillance or unauthorized access to their sensitive financial data.

Privacy is compatible with the fundamental principles of decentralization and user empowerment, enabling individuals to control their personal information and financial transactions in an increasingly interconnected digital environment. Prioritizing privacy in the crypto world is seen as necessary not only for the protection of individual rights but also for maintaining the integrity and resilience of the entire Blockchain ecosystem.
