On September 8th, 2022 Coinbase announced it was funding and supporting a lawsuit brought by six individuals (including two Coinbase employees) challenging the Treasury Department’s novel sanctions of open source software associated with Tornado Cash. The plaintiffs we are supporting represent a cross section of crypto users and developers who used TC to protect their privacy and security for legitimate reasons—from wanting to safely donate to Ukraine to concealing salary deposits that would show how much they earn. Meet four of them, and hear why they got involved, and what they hope to accomplish through this challenge in this episode of Around the Block.Today's conversation was recorded on September 16th.
