Maximum sentence☹️.
Holy shit, outrages!
Who was harmed? Who is being protected by this ruling?
Absolute travesty.

Sad day for bitcoin privacy

Very sad

Free Rodriguez Day 290.
Sad day for bitcoiners everywhere
This is a clear attack on privacy.
Anyone familiar with the facts of this case know, It makes ZERO sense. No laws were broken.
Regardless of what party you vote, some things remain the same.

The is no such crime as money laundering. The crime is the crime. The exchange of money is never a crime.
Money laundering is a fake crime made up by those in power so they can control the money. They also know that if they can put themselves in a position to log, surveil, and grant permission to every transaction made, they can control everything.
Do not comply. Ignore their dictates and immoral infringements on our unalienable right to transact however we see fit.
Better to use the best tools available then.
Imagine trying to fight them with transparent Bitcoin. You're the laughing stock.
They delisted Monero from CEX for a reason.
Yes, I agree. I prefer in face with cash that doesn't devaluate, such as goldbacks. Why leave any trace, even hidden and encrypted ones?
Of course, almost nobody transacts in goldbacks ... which makes that hard.
If you use Bitcoin on a exchange, never pay taxes on it. I'd argue not to pay taxes at all, or pay as little as legally permissible, but milage and risk may vary.
Couldn't agree more
Goldbacks are awesome and certainly fill the in-person offline gap that Monero has.
Basically half of the Monero guys out there are Catholics, they're as cypherpunk as it gets. Also Jesuit Pope Francis passed away may his soul rest in peace.
That’s not what the Jews think. They told the Biden admin/doj to protect their fiat, so that’s what they set out to do.
I knew this would happen, in this case it didn't matter if the evidence was solid that you didn't do anything wrong, they simply wanted to put him in prison because they hated the alternative they offered.
even though they eliminated this, they will no longer be able to stop what they created? the wallet code is now free and other wallets will probably appear to replace it?
Same with conspiracy laws i.e RICO
I'm not familiar with that one.

Taxes are theft!
Do not comply and find holes in their system.
Free Rodriguez on day 291. Total show trial by crooked justice system with the help of a leftest Clinton appointee thats old enough to be Nancy Pelosi's grandmother. Doubt the ol bag, boomer judge even has a cell phone.
Wow that seems excessive...

Fucking liberty
From now on, you have to be careful what you type on the keyboard because someone might not like it...
Is there a summary of the official argument why he is sentenced?
Fuck
because the state likes it's monopoly on money and violence. also, because he pleaded guilty.
how come wasabi is allowed but not samurai? what's the difference?

Did any of you saw any bitcoin developer helping samurai devs? What I saw was @Luke Dashjr pushing them under the bus. Don't believe me go listen to samurai devs podcasts before the arrests. Bitcoiner developers hate privacy but there is something even worse behind it. Take care Nostr is not the best for privacy you can stop following me now Luke.

He pleaded guilty for exactly what? (I’m genuinely asking since I only know high level — I assume he was operating coin join software)
