FinCEN explicitly told prosecutors Samourai Wallet was not a money transmitter due to its non-custodial design. DOJ prosecuted the developers anyway, suppressing exculpatory evidence for a year. #freesamourai image

Ironic how they’re so scared of privacy, they’ll keep evidence that works against them private.
Today is a good day to donate to the legal fund of the samourai case… again. C‘mon Bitcoiners, I know we all have already donated some corn but it‘s not over. it is not only for two plebs but for the individual freedom of all of us.

You’r god damn right. Do you know where I can do that? Didn’t find anything with a web-search.
Unreal. This is how important this technology is - important enough for the DOJ to lie and cheat to keep it away. nevent1qqsxw7lch25fqy4ngn4caaj02q5g7unms89pkg4h26ep366wt9yq6hcpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhga2yzu3
There needs to be real consequences for using the legal system for politically motivated attacks. Otherwise we are all just pussies talking nonsense online. What can be done with the law to hold these organizations and their agents legally accountable with prison time for false imprisonment?

I don't understand why this is big news, the FinCEN guidance was public.
