$BTC Developer Sent to Prison for Building a Wallet... Not Even a Rug 😭

A Bitcoin dev named Keonne Rodriguez didn’t scam anyone.

Didn’t rug a project. Didn’t even launch a meme coin with “Revolution” in the name.

He just built Samourai Wallet — a privacy app that mixed Bitcoin so users could move funds quietly.

But guess what? That “quiet” just got him 5 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. 😔

So yeah... apparently, writing privacy code is now a bigger crime than dumping a token on your holders.

This one hits deep — because Samourai wasn’t about crime.

It was about control, the kind people in power don’t like to lose.

Now every crypto dev is thinking:

💭 “Should I even build privacy tools anymore?”

💭 “Or just drop a meme coin and stay safe?” 😅

The real impact?

⚠️ Fewer privacy tools.

⚠️ More fear in the dev space.

⚠️ And a louder system that’s slowly winning.

Bitcoin started as freedom from the system...

But right now, the system’s winning — and privacy’s doing jail time. 🕊️
