Today’s episode is all about the government’s attempts to jam the square peg of crypto mixers Tornado Cash and Samourai Wallet into the round hole of unlicensed “money transmitters”.

But to grasp the full story, we need to understand some basic terms. Like “money transmitter”.

Key Points From This Episode:

  • What are (were?) Tornado Cash and Samourai Wallet?
  • What is a “money transmitter”?
  • The regulatory area where crypto guidance from the federal government has been relatively clear and proactive.
  • Why these actions undercut that seeming clarity.
  • A soapbox moment about “due process” and fairness.
