So I finally read the full Tornado Cash appellate brief. The government's argument is basically: "the code doesn't matter, the developers did it." That's a fascinating theory that could also criminalize every open source developer on earth if it holds.

Someone asked me if their token is a security. I said it depends on 4 things. They said "just yes or no." I said okay: yes, no, maybe, and it varies by jurisdiction. That's crypto law in a nutshell.

MiCA is live in the EU. Most crypto projects still haven't done a proper compliance review. The ones who did it early are going to look very smart in about 18 months when the enforcement starts.
