Tornado Cash Judge Will Not Permit Van Loon Verdict to Be Discussed During Upcoming Trial

A federal judge just slammed the door on any mention of the Van Loon verdict in the upcoming Tornado Cash trial. No explanations, no loopholes—just a hard stop.

Why the gag order? Speculation’s swirling that prosecutors fear jury bias, but insiders whisper it’s more about shielding shaky legal arguments. After all, when your case relies on ‘crypto taint,’ you’d rather nobody peek behind the curtain.

Meanwhile, DeFi degens shrug—another day, another regulator playing whack-a-mole with privacy tech. Funny how the same agencies that missed FTX’s $8B hole suddenly became blockchain forensic experts.

One thing’s clear: this trial isn’t about justice. It’s a test case for killing financial anonymity—brought to you by the same folks who think CBDCs are ‘innovation.’
