ArbitrumDAO’s offer to donate cryptocurrency to fight criminal charges against Tornado Cash developers Roman Storm and Alexey Pertsev was removed by the author as token holders expressed concerns about whether such donations could pose legal risks. Matters spoke to The Block.

Arbitrum contributor Joseph Axisa’s proposal, published Wednesday, outlines plans to pledge between 200,000 and 600,000 ARBs (about $400,000 to $1.2 million) to the defense fund of Storm and Pertsev, who are facing criminal charges for writing the software. Unchained for Tornado Cash, a smart contract protocol that makes cryptocurrency transactions on Ethereum difficult to track. reported On Friday. The third co-founder, Roman Semenov, Charge with the StormIt still remains.

However, around the evening of last Friday, March 8th, post It is no longer available in Arbitrum’s discourse forum.

It’s still unclear exactly when the post, which appears to have gone largely unnoticed in X’s Arbitrum community, was removed. An Arbitrum representative confirmed to The Block that the proposal was removed at the author’s request.

According to the proposal, donated tokens would be stored at Juicebox, a cryptocurrency-focused fundraising platform.

Alternative approach?

Despite the proposed removal, ArbitrumDAO members are still considering alternative ways to fund the developer’s legal fight, including sending funds to Coin Center, a non-profit organization focused on cryptocurrency policy, people familiar with the matter said. A source told The Block that a new version of the proposal will appear on the AribitrumDAO forums this week.

Since their arrest, the developers have received a ton of support from DeFi supporters, a broad sector of the cryptocurrency industry built on the same radical ideas about financial freedom that Tornado Cash supporters associate with software and developers.

It’s unclear whether Arbitrum’s community will face legal risk for making large donations to Storm and Pertsev. Last month, GoFundMe suspended a crowdfunding request for Storm’s legal aid, citing a clause in its terms of service that could stop petitions as “unacceptable or objectionable” or subject to “any type of harm or liability.” . Ryan Sean Adams, who joins the campaign; said In the X post.
