The Dutch court has ruled that Pertsev, a 31-year-old, laundered $1.2 billion through Tornado Cash. A panel of three judges sentenced Pertsev to five years and four months in prison. The court stated in its final conclusion, "The court believes that legally and factually, the suspect, together with others, laundered Ethereum obtained through criminal means, and he has become accustomed to this money laundering behavior." Meanwhile, Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Storm's trial in the United States began on September 23. Last year, US prosecutors charged Storm and co-founder Roman Semenov with conspiracy to launder money, conspiracy to violate sanctions, and conspiracy to operate an unlicensed money transmission business. Semenov remains at large at the time of the indictment.
