🚨NEW from the @rstormsf trial: The DOJ is apparently still considering charges against an unspecified number of people at crypto VC firm @dragonfly_xyz, not just General Partner @tomhschmidt, according to AUSA Rehn. After saying this in court, Rehn asked for the transcript of his comment to be sealed, as documented below by the inimitable @innercitypress. Dragonfly was the VC backing Tornado Cash, and emails between Roman Storm, his cofounders, and Dragonfly’s @hosseeb and @tomhschmidt were shown in court yesterday, including one where Storm and team asked for feedback on adding KYC to the platform. The defense had wanted Schmidt to testify, but he invoked the Fifth through his lawyer. It’s unclear whether he’ll be granted immunity (something the defense had reportedly been advocating for), or whether he’d testify if that happens. We should know more when the trial resumes next week. Closing arguments are also expected next week as of now.
