According to the latest information, Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Storm is about to face judicial trial, with the case scheduled to be heard in New York on July 14. In response to this legal challenge, Roman is actively raising funds for legal defense. Notably, the Ethereum Foundation has publicly announced that it will provide $500,000 in funding support and has committed to a matching donation plan of up to $750,000 based on community contributions.



In the statement, the Ethereum Foundation particularly emphasized an important point - "Privacy is the norm, and writing code should not be considered a criminal act." This position reflects the crypto community's insistence on technological neutrality and the rights of developers. The outcome of this case could have a profound impact on the development of privacy tools in the entire crypto space and their legal status.
