Vitalik has made another donation of 100 ETH (approximately $240k) to the legal defense fund of Tornado Cash developer Roman Storm, marking his third contribution to the cause. Storm, who faces charges related to Tornado Cash’s open-source code, has garnered widespread support, with over 327 ETH ($785k) raised for his defense fund. Despite Storm's plea for dismissal being denied by Judge Katherine Failla, the case proceeds, with Storm facing up to 45 years in prison if convicted. Meanwhile, Tornado Cash continues to see growth, with deposits reaching $1.9 billion in the first half of 2024 despite sanctions. Source: Cointelegraph
