I happen to have one of the oldest Ethereum addresses from the genesis block. 11 years ago today, I gave some of my precious BTC to a quiet, brilliant kid named @VitalikButerin for his @ethereum fundraiser. Bitcoin was revolutionary, but Vitalik had ideas the network couldn’t support. He saw what could be built, and I believed him. So I showed up and helped however I could. I still do. #ethereum10years

Huge credit to @davidzmorris for covering the Roman Storm trial live in NYC. This case is extremely important for everyone who cares about DeFi, and more than that, about justice and freedom. We're lucky to have David on the ground keeping us all informed 🙏

The most ironic part about the Tornado Cash case is that the government is fighting against services that obfuscate transactions while at the same time proving unequivocally that they can't even understand and track regular, normal transactions

To celebrate @ethereum's 10 year anniversary, we are bearing the torch in honour of Roman and Alexey who represent the importance of privacy and developer freedom.

I don’t know what verdict the jury will return. But I do know that juries deserve the truth. We can’t find any evidence that in this attack this witness’s funds were sent to a Coinbase account. The government needs to acknowledge error or explain what’s been missed— now.

Here for day 8 of the Tornado Cash trial. Will be in and out today due to some other obligations but will share what I can in this thread 🧵

you should not trust Iranians that defend Islam

when you tell them you are conquering your homeland and they respond "plz stop your scaring me" 🙃

Today in U.S. v. Roman Storm, the prosecution piled up picayune evidence to venue and other procedural requirements. And we heard from a second crypto exploiter who might get a reduced sentence for detailing his use of Tornado Cash. Link in thread.
