Vitalik supports Roman Storm: I hope the United States will take the lead in making a safer world with fewer data breaches a reality

 Vitalik, the founder of Ethereum, wrote, "Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Storm's interview (which we heavily rely on, clearly stated in the 2019 FinCEN (US Financial Crimes Enforcement Network) guidance that service providers of anonymization software are not subject to the regulation of money transmission business licenses. This makes us believe that what we are developing should not put us in a high-risk position) is very good. His trial will begin in 10 days.

Today, the message privacy without backdoors has been widely accepted, and many business and government officials also regularly use tools like Signal. Considering that we frequently see centralized databases being breached nowadays, enhancing privacy protection in areas such as payments, identity, and artificial intelligence should not be seen as a need for "balance" between privacy and security—it is an important part of security itself.

I hope that the United States can take the lead in making a world that is more secure, freer, and with less data leakage a reality. And the first step is to send a clear signal to developers: this important work is welcomed."
