PANews July 16 news, according to Eleanor Terrett, the first day of the trial of Tornado Cash co-founder Storm has concluded. The jury consists of 7 women and 5 men, with half of the members under the age of 31. The U.S. Department of Justice described Tornado Cash as a “Money Laundering machine” in their opening statement, claiming that Storm and his co-founders are the manipulators. However, the defense argues that the prosecution failed to prove a direct connection between Storm and any criminals, emphasizing that he merely developed a tool that was abused. The trial also mentioned that the government would summon hackers who have actually used Tornado Cash to testify. The defense team for the Tornado Cash case is well aware of the difficulty in persuading the jury, so they began explaining technical details during the opening statement and plan to invite expert witnesses to testify, including experts specializing in tokenomics. The case will continue tomorrow.
