ChainCatcher news, according to Cointelegraph, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York is expected to conclude the case presentation against Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Storm by July 25. Storm is charged with money laundering, operating a money transmission business without a license, and violating U.S. sanctions. If all charges are upheld, he could face several years in prison.

The prosecution has summoned several witnesses to testify, including FBI agents and forensic accountants. Storm's defense team plans to argue the importance of cryptocurrency privacy protection and may cite kidnapping cases involving crypto users as evidence to support their position.

Roman Storm co-founded Tornado Cash in 2019 with Alexey Pertsev and Roman Semenov. The case is expected to be heard for 3 to 4 weeks.
