Roman Storm Retrial Set for April 26, 2027

  • —FinCEN withdrew its 2023 proposal to impose recordkeeping and reporting duties on crypto mixing
  • —A jury convicted Storm on one count of unlicensed money transmission in 2025
  • —Retrial on the remaining charges is set for April 26, 2027
  • —Prosecutors cited an appeals ruling in the Bitcoin Fog operator Sterlingov case to assert jurisdiction
Why it matters: The case will shape criminal liability for mixer developers even after FinCEN dropped its reporting rule.
