End Biden Crypto Lawfare – Amnesty Now
The relentless “lawfare” targeting crypto innovators like Roger Ver, Ian Freeman, Roman Storm, and dozens more stems directly from Joe Biden’s Executive Order 14067, signed on March 9, 2022—a sweeping mandate that unleashed a whole-of-government assault on decentralized finance to pave the way for Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs). With nearly every federal agency—SEC, DOJ, IRS, FDIC, Treasury, and CFTC—coordinated to crush alternatives to state-controlled money, this crackdown has devastated lives, destroyed businesses, and stifled American innovation, affecting over 100 countries racing toward CBDCs. The scope is staggering: retroactive tax charges, fabricated prosecutions, and privacy tool bans have ensnared innocent individuals, threatening financial freedom itself. Now, as President Trump rescinds EO 14067, justice demands immediate amnesty for all victims, freeing them from politically motivated charges to restore hope and innovation in a golden age of liberty.
Roger Ver: Silenced for Championing Financial Freedom – Charged with Tax Evasion
Roger Ver, known as “Bitcoin Jesus,” became enemy number one for those pushing Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) by tirelessly championing Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, and privacy alternatives like Zano.org as decentralized, peer-to-peer solutions that empower individuals to bypass government-controlled money, threatening the surveillance and control inherent in CBDCs. Understanding that the way to defeat digital surveillance is through privacy-focused technologies, he has advocated for Zano.org and the Confidential Layer—a separate blockchain that allows users to bridge their BTC, BCH, and ETH for enhanced fungibility, scalability, and privacy—directly challenging the transparency CBDCs demand. His 15-year crusade to expand financial freedom, including investing in and promoting crypto to undermine central bank tyranny, makes him a global target for CBDC proponents. Yet, the Biden administration’s lawfare under Executive Order 14067 targeted him with reprehensible tactics: prosecutors lied to the grand jury to secure his indictment, the IRS raided his lawyers’ offices in a shocking violation of attorney-client privilege, and now they smear him as a fugitive for exercising his legal right to fight extradition from Spain, turning legitimate due process into a pretext for persecution.
Ian Freeman: Punished for Building a Crypto Haven – Charged with Money Laundering
Ian Freeman’s promotion of Bitcoin as a decentralized economic haven through Free Talk Live and his Bitcoin ATM operations posed a direct threat to Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), offering a practical, privacy-focused alternative that empowered individuals to escape the surveillance and programmability of state-controlled money, fostering a liberty movement that could derail CBDC adoption. His influence in New Hampshire’s Free State Project and crypto community made him a prime target for undermining centralized financial control.
However, Biden-era lawfare under Executive Order 14067 ensnared him in abhorrent practices: the DOJ deployed an undercover IRS agent posing as a car dealer to entrap him in a fabricated “drug deal” he refused, then paraded unrelated romance-scam victims at sentencing to falsely imply fraud—despite no such charges—resulting in an eight-year prison sentence for operating a peaceful Bitcoin exchange.
Roman Storm: Hunted for Coding Privacy – Charged with Money Laundering
Roman Storm’s development of Tornado Cash, a privacy-focused blockchain tool that mixes transactions to shield users from tracking, struck at the heart of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) by protecting financial privacy and decentralization, directly opposing the transparent, programmable surveillance CBDCs require for state control. His innovative code empowered individuals to resist the erosion of financial autonomy, making him a critical obstacle to CBDC implementation. Yet, under Biden’s Executive Order 14067, he faced despicable targeting: the DOJ arrested him in 2023, charging him with money laundering for writing privacy software—not financial services—potentially facing 45 years, while using vague, overreaching laws to criminalize code, ignoring his intent to protect user autonomy and punishing him for challenging the government’s digital tyranny agenda.
