Coin Center Executive Director Peter Van Valkenburgh stated that the Trump administration has not fulfilled its promise not to prosecute developers of cryptocurrency privacy software, and there is a clear contradiction between actual law enforcement and policy statements, putting developers at risk of uncertain legal repercussions. Currently, the U.S. Department of Justice is still suing multiple developers of privacy tools and even sentencing some, including cases involving tools related to btc-42">Bitcoin and Ethereum, with Ethereum developer Roman Storm having been partially convicted, and prosecutors are attempting to revive the remaining charges.

Coin Center warns that in the absence of "legally binding clarity," the act of developing privacy tools may still be held accountable due to user purposes (such as money laundering), exacerbating compliance uncertainty in the industry.
