Vitalik Buterin donates 100 ETH to Roman Storm defense fund
The United States Office of Foreign Assets Control sanctioned the Tornado Cash mixer in 2022 — accusing it of facilitating money laundering.
Ethereum (ETH) co-founder Vitalik Buterin recently donated another 100 Ether, valued at approximately $240,000, to Tornado Cash developer Roman Storm’s legal defense fund — marking the third time the notable crypto builder has donated to the cause.
According to the Defend Roman Storm crowdsourcing page, 148 different payments have been received for the developer’s defense fund — totaling over 327 ETH, valued at roughly $785,000, at the time of writing.
“I can’t describe how much it means to me. Thank you for your long-lasting support,” the Tornado Cash developer told Buterin following the contribution.
