This is not soliciting to criminals. Even if it was, the supreme court has ruled that is not a crime. image

Samourai Wallet's conspiracy was that they knew criminals could use their software, not that they knew of any specific illicit use. Think about the implications of such a legal theory, such broad language implicates every software developer, miner, & node operator.

"Samourai earned fees, therefore they were a business and how they wound up on the wrong end of a conspiracy to operate an unlicensed money transmitting business, right?" The truth may surprise you, Samourai could have operated for free & they would have still been prosecuted.

What do guns, Toyotas, & Excel spreadsheets have in common? The executives don't go to prison when crimes are committed with any of those tools. This Bitcoin wallet is a different story. Meet the developer sentenced to 5-years in prison + $250k fine for his code.

Many questioned why Samourai Wallet took the plea deal? When facing 25-years in prison + $237m forfeiture order + being barred from talking about his own intent in front of a jury + a judge who refused to hear the defense arguments = plea deal was the clear path forward. Hear Keonne explain it all in his own words on the Kim Iversen Show here: https://rumble.com/v71ytcc-he-built-a-privacy-app-now-hes-going-to-prison-keonne-rodriguez.html?start=365 Help us reach our goal of 100k signatures, sign & share the petition to pardon Samourai Wallet today: Support the families facing financial ruin here: https://givesendgo.com/billandkeonne
