⚖️ 开发者还是银行家？美国参议院就“代码属性”展开激烈辩论
关于加密货币开发者法律地位的博弈再次升级。美国参议员查尔斯·格拉斯利 (Charles Grassley) 和 理查德·德宾 (Richard Durbin) 公开反对《区块链监管确定性法案》(Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act) 中的核心条款。
🤔 争议焦点是什么？
该法案旨在确立一个基本原则：编写代码 ≠ 管理他人资金。如果你开发了一个去中心化协议或混币器，只要不直接控制用户资产，就不应被视为“货币传输业务者 (Money Transmitter)”。
🛡️ 参议员的担忧：
格拉斯利和德宾认为，这种保护将为犯罪分子留下“巨大的法律漏洞”。他们主张：
混币器开发者应对其软件的使用方式承担责任。如果将开发者排除在监管之外，将加大打击洗钱犯罪的难度。执法部门将更难起诉那些提供匿名交易服务的平台。
⏳ 为什么现在至关重要？
这一争议正值 Tornado Cash 联合创始人 Roman Storm 案件的关键期。此前，纽约法庭已裁定其经营未经许可的货币传输业务罪名成立，尽管陪审团在洗钱指控上尚未达成一致。
如果参议员的反对意见被采纳，美国任何 DeFi 协议的开发者都可能被监管机构视为金融中介机构，面临法律风险。

🚨 2.82亿美元巨额劫案后续：洗钱黑幕浮出水面！🚨
区块链安全专家 CertiK 与 FearsOff 近期揭秘了1月10日匿名硬件钱包被盗案件的资金流向。这起涉及约 2.82亿美元 的案件，不仅让受害者失去了 1459 BTC 和超过 200 万个 LTC，更展示了极度专业的洗钱手段。
🔍 核心洗钱手法拆解：
跨链转换 (Cross-Chain Swap)： 黑客利用去中心化交易所 THORswap，将被盗的 $BTC 转换为以太坊生态的资产。大额拆分： 约 686 BTC 被兑换为 19,600 ETH 后，转入钱包 0xF73a...cc21，随后被迅速拆分至多个新地址。终极“屏蔽器”： 资金最后以每笔约 400 ETH 的额度汇入隐私协议 Tornado Cash。专家称其为链上追踪的“总开关”，混币后追回资金的可能性微乎其微。
⚠️ 警示提醒：
区块链侦探 ZachXBT 指出，这次黑客并非利用系统漏洞，而是通过社会工程学手段，伪装成客服诱导受害者泄露了助记词。这再次证明：硬件钱包虽安全，但用户的安全意识才是防线。
💬 互动时刻：
面对如此复杂的洗钱手段，你认为混币器（Tornado Cash）应该被彻底封禁，还是作为隐私工具予以保留？欢迎在评论区讨论！

🚨 30-Year Prison Sentence For Crypto Mixer Founder
Roman Sterlingov, the mastermind behind the cryptocurrency mixer Bitcoin Fog, is fighting back against a hefty 30-year prison sentence after being found guilty on multiple money laundering charges.
Disputed Conviction and Sentence:
Sterlingov was convicted in March on charges that included money laundering, conspiracy, and running an unlicensed money transmitting business. Prosecutors allege he operated Bitcoin Fog from 2011 to 2021, helping to launder around $400 million in Bitcoin tied to illegal activities like drug trafficking and identity theft.
However, Sterlingov’s defense disputes the extent of his involvement, arguing that he wasn’t responsible for Bitcoin Fog's operations despite being linked to it. They also pointed out that key evidence—such as server logs, private keys, and ledgers—was never presented in court.
A Call for Fairness:
Sterlingov’s legal team argues that the proposed 20 to 30-year sentence is unjustified, especially when compared to similar cases that resulted in lighter penalties. They emphasize that the sentence should reflect his actual role, which they suggest was more about aiding and abetting rather than direct operation.
Judge Randolph Moss initially planned to sentence Sterlingov on August 21 but has decided to first consider the government’s forfeiture order, which includes 1,354 BTC still sitting untouched in a Bitcoin Fog wallet since 2012 and a possible $395 million judgment.

Garden Finance Hackers Move Millions to Tornado Cash
The plot thickens in the Garden Finance exploit saga! After draining millions in digital assets, the attackers have now transferred large sums to Tornado Cash, a privacy protocol often used to obscure transaction trails on Ethereum.
This move complicates ongoing on-chain investigations, as funds passing through Tornado Cash become much harder to trace a common tactic seen in recent DeFi exploits.
💡 Key Takeaways for Traders & DeFi Users:
Security Reminder: Always review project audits and on-chain activity before depositing funds.
DeFi Risks: Even established protocols can face vulnerabilities — diversification and risk management are essential.
Market Sentiment: These incidents often spark temporary FUD, but the broader market tends to recover quickly once exploits are contained.

TORN rises after US Treasury removes Tornado Cash from OFAC sanctions.
Friday, the US Treasury withdrew Tornado Cash addresses from OFAC sanctions.
The judgment may aid Tornado Cash creators in their DOJ case.
TORN rose 73% after the news.
After the US Treasury removed crypto mixer Tornado Cash from its OFAC sanction list, TORN rose beyond 70% on Friday.
Tornado Cash addresses deleted from US sanctions
OFAC removed crypto mixer Tornado Cash from its SDN list.
An update on the OFAC website states that Tornado Cash addresses have been removed from the SDN list, freeing the protocol from US restriction.
"We have exercised our discretion to remove the economic sanctions against Tornado Cash as reflected in Treasury's Monday filing in Van Loon v. Department of the Treasury," the US Treasury announced Friday.
Lazarus Group money laundering tactics continue to worry the Treasury.
OFAC banned US citizens from using Tornado Cash in 2022. Since its 2019 launch, the US Treasury said the network let hackers launder $7 billion in digital assets. North Korea's Lazarus Group and other hackers took these monies.
In 2023, the DOJ charged Tornado Cash co-founders Roman Storm and Roman Semenov for facilitating over $1 billion in Lazarus Group crypto transactions.
Tornado Cash co-founder Alexey Pertsev was convicted of laundering $1.2 billion in cryptocurrencies in May 2024 in the Netherlands. Pertsev received a 64-month sentence.
The US Treasury Department's delisting of Tornado Cash might affect the mixing platform's founders' DOJ lawsuits.
As the US crypto privacy landscape improves, privacy tokens and the DeFi industry benefit from the agency's decision.
The statement sent TORN soaring over 70% to regain $15. It led the privacy token industry with weekly gains of 100%.
TORN's increase is partly due to its $57 million market cap. Thus, minor purchase orders might rapidly change its price.
Tornado Cash's removal from OFAC's sanction list may boost privacy tokens in the coming days.

#InfiniHacked
🚨 Another Crypto Heist Shakes the Market! 🚨
Just when we thought the #Bybit saga was cooling down, BOOM—another shocker! This time, the target is Infini, a Hong Kong-based stablecoin digital bank, and the loot? A jaw-dropping $50 million in USDC!
According to security watchdog PeckShield, the hacker pulled off a textbook crypto heist. First, they snatched a private key, then drained $49.5 million in USDC in two batches—11.4M + 38M $USDC . What next? The stolen funds were swiftly swapped into DAI, funneled through the infamous Tornado Cash (because, of course!), converted to $ETH , and tucked away in a brand-new wallet.
The best (or worst) part? A sharp-eyed community member noticed the shady transactions and sounded the alarm on #PeckShieldAlert and the Infini’s security team traced the hacker’s tracks, the unthinkable happened—an inside job! An engineer was allegedly behind the whole scheme. PekShieldAlert also shared the swap and hack flow info in their official X account.
Now, with the hacker exposed, #Infini has filed a police report and is demanding the full amount be returned. The crypto world is watching—will justice be served, or is this just another digital Houdini act?
Let's keep our eyes on, because this story is FAR from over!

Ethereum Donates $500,000 to Defend Tornado Cash Developer – A Case That Could Change Everything
The crypto world is on edge. The Ethereum Foundation has stepped up to support the legal defense of Roman Storm, co-founder of the controversial Tornado Cash protocol, announcing a $500,000 contribution just days after a federal jury found Storm guilty on one count of a three-part indictment. He now faces up to five years in prison, and possibly more if prosecutors retry the other charges.
🧾 “Privacy is normal. Writing code is not a crime,” said Ethereum Foundation Executive Director Wei Wang.
Legal advocacy groups have warned that the outcome of this case could set a global precedent for open-source developers.
Charged for Writing Code? The Legal Battle Over Tornado Cash
Storm’s case stems from his role in developing Tornado Cash — a crypto mixer that enables anonymous transactions by blending users’ funds together. The U.S. Treasury claims that since 2019, the protocol has been used to launder over $7 billion, including funds allegedly moved by North Korea’s Lazarus Group.
Federal prosecutors painted Storm as someone who profited from concealing criminal activity, while his defense insists Tornado Cash was designed as a privacy tool for ordinary users, not criminals.
Are Developers Under Siege? Code at the Center of Legal Attacks
Many legal experts are raising serious concerns, warning that U.S. authorities may be overreaching by applying money laundering laws to developers who merely write open-source code and don’t control user funds.
A prominent crypto attorney called the verdict “a dark day for DeFi” and argued that Section 1960 should not apply to non-custodial protocol developers. He urged the courts to overturn what he sees as a dangerous legal misstep.
Meanwhile, Roman Storm has appealed for more support. In July, he requested an additional $1.5 million, citing rapidly escalating legal fees and a defense team working “around the clock” during the intense three-week trial.
Rising Pressure on Crypto Mixer Developers
This week, the founders of another crypto mixer — Samourai Wallet — pleaded guilty to similar charges. They now face up to five years in prison, with U.S. officials claiming the wallet was used to launder over $100 million, calling it a “haven for large-scale money laundering and sanctions evasion.”
Roman Storm’s ongoing legal saga is shaping up to be a landmark case for digital privacy, open-source development, and the future of permissionless technology.

#Whale Đột Ngột Xả Kho $DAI Để Mua $ETH - Một Chiến Lược Hấp Dẫn! 🐋💥
Chỉ 15 giờ trước, một địa chỉ ví whale bất ngờ xả kho 5,875,000 $DAI và dùng toàn bộ số tiền này mua ETH. Điều đặc biệt là, số #DAI này đã được tích lũy từ năm 2022, và đến tận bây giờ, cá voi này mới quyết định "All-in" vào ETH.
Không dừng lại ở đó, whale này còn chuyển 1000 ETH vào #TornadoCash để xáo trộn hash và xóa sạch mọi dấu vết liên quan đến số ETH này.
Liệu đây có phải là dấu hiệu cho thấy chú cá voi này đã bắt đầu #bullish với ETH, quyết định mua vào khi giá thấp? Hay đây chỉ là một chiến lược "1 ăn cả 2 ngã về 0", đầy mạo hiểm? 🤔

Tornado Cash: “Nhà phát triển ẩn danh” ra tòa – Tự do viết code sẽ ra sao?
Ngày 14/7 tới, Roman Storm, một trong những người tạo ra #TornadoCash – công cụ ẩn danh giao dịch crypto – sẽ chính thức ra tòa tại New York. Storm bị buộc tội rửa tiền, vi phạm lệnh trừng phạt và điều hành dịch vụ chuyển tiền bất hợp pháp. Nếu thua kiện, anh có thể ngồi tù tới 45 năm.
⚡ Tornado Cash được Storm và cộng sự phát triển từ 2019, cho phép trộn tiền điện tử để ẩn danh người sở hữu. Công cụ này bị cáo buộc đã giúp các nhóm tin tặc, gồm cả nhóm Lazarus của Triều Tiên, rửa hơn 1 tỷ USD crypto. Mỹ từng cấm Tornado Cash vì coi đây là “mối đe dọa an ninh quốc gia”.
💬 Tuy nhiên, cộng đồng crypto cho rằng Storm chỉ viết và công bố mã nguồn, việc đó nên được bảo vệ như quyền tự do ngôn luận. Vitalik Buterin (Ethereum) cảnh báo: “Nếu án lệ này mất đi, mọi nhà phát triển phần mềm đều có thể bị kết tội chỉ vì code của họ bị kẻ xấu lợi dụng.”
🏛️ Chính phủ Mỹ cho rằng Storm không chỉ viết code mà còn vận hành và hưởng lợi từ token TORN. Phía bào chữa nhấn mạnh Storm không nắm quyền kiểm soát quỹ người dùng, chỉ quản lý giao diện.
Nếu Storm bị kết tội, nhiều người lo ngại đây sẽ là tiền lệ nguy hiểm cho DeFi và tự do phát triển phần mềm. Storm nói: “Nếu tôi thua, DeFi cũng sẽ chết theo.”
🔥 Phiên tòa Tornado Cash sẽ là phép thử lịch sử: Giới hạn tự do viết code hay bảo vệ quyền riêng tư trong thế giới crypto? #anhbacong

🚨 FORMER SEC CHAIR RETURNS TO PROSECUTE TORNADO CASH DEVELOPER — WHAT IT MEANS FOR CRYPTO
Jay Clayton, the ex-SEC chair who ignited early crackdowns on crypto, is now leading the DOJ’s case against Tornado Cash developer Roman Storm. Storm faces trial this week for conspiracy to commit money laundering and evading U.S. sanctions.
🔹 Clayton initiated the Ripple lawsuit in 2020
🔹 Oversaw 57 crypto-related actions during his SEC term
🔹 Now appointed by Trump as U.S. Attorney for SDNY
🔹 Also advising crypto custody firm Fireblocks
This move has sparked concern across the DeFi space. Despite Trump’s pro-crypto stance, his administration is pushing one of the most high-profile DeFi trials in U.S. history.
Roman Storm warned: “If I lose, DeFi dies with me.”
The outcome could set a precedent—criminalizing open-source development and reshaping the future of decentralized finance in America.
