  • Former Bitcoin pioneer Roger Ver seeks presidential pardon for tax evasion charges.
  • Ver claims potential 109-year sentence for alleged tax and mail fraud violations.
  • Campaign draws parallels to Ross Ulbricht‘s pardon case and Donald Trump‘s legal challenges.
  • Cryptocurrency community remains divided on Ver’s pardon request.
  • Ver currently faces extradition proceedings to the United States.

Roger Ver, an early Bitcoin adopter and Bitcoin Cash proponent, has initiated a social media campaign requesting a presidential pardon from Donald Trump for his tax evasion and mail fraud charges, which could result in over a century of imprisonment.

Legal Challenges and Pardon Request

Ver posted on social media stating he faces “109 years” in prison for allegations he maintains are false. The cryptocurrency advocate draws parallels between his situation and that of Ross Ulbricht, the Silk Road founder who received a presidential pardon, suggesting both cases represent examples of excessive legal pursuit by U.S. authorities.

Community Response

The cryptocurrency community’s reaction to Ver’s pardon request has been mixed. Critics point to Ver’s past actions as justification for the severity of the charges, while supporters question whether the potential sentence matches the alleged infractions.

Historical Context

Ver’s case adds to a growing list of high-profile cryptocurrency figures facing legal challenges in the United States. The Justice Department has intensified its focus on cryptocurrency-related cases, particularly those involving tax compliance and financial reporting requirements. This enforcement pattern reflects the government’s broader strategy to regulate the cryptocurrency sector through existing financial laws.

Presidential pardons in cryptocurrency-related cases remain rare, with Ross Ulbricht‘s pardon standing as one of the few examples in the sector’s history. The outcome of Ver’s campaign could set precedents for similar cases in the digital asset industry.
