The outcome of the Storm case, which involves Tornado Cash developer Storm, remains unclear. The judge stated that the case involves too many issues.

CoinFeed reported on April 10th that, according to The Block, the Southern District of New York Federal Court held a hearing on the case of Tornado Cash developer Roman Storm. Judge Katherine Polk Failla stated at the end of the hearing that "this involves too many issues" and that time was needed to digest both sides' arguments. The government's lawyers argued that Storm's improvements and updates to Tornado Cash helped criminals launder money and profited him personally. Storm's lawyers maintained that creating a cryptocurrency mixing service was not illegal and that Storm did not build Tornado Cash for illegal activities. The government's lawyers also suggested that funds mixed along with criminal funds could also be subject to prosecution, a statement that caused a stir in the courtroom.
