"Comply or Die" reality is hitting crypto developers. Roman Storm of Tornado Cash was found guilty of operating an unlicensed money transmitter, while Samurai Wallet devs took plea deals. Meanwhile, Peter Thiel's Founders Fund raised $353M for Plasma - a fully compliant, surveillance-friendly stablecoin sidechain. We explore the stark contrast between privacy developers facing prison time and establishment players launching token sales with regulatory blessing.
