Alexey Pertsev, co-founder of Tornado Cash, has been denied bail by a Dutch court as he prepares for his appeals process. Despite his lawyers' request for bail, the court ruled that his detention does not obstruct his ability to prepare his defense. Pertsev was previously found guilty of money laundering and sentenced to 64 months in prison, causing outrage within the crypto community. His friend, Ameen Soleimani, has started JusticeDao to coordinate Pertsev's legal defense.
