Samourai Wallet Co-Founders Flip Pleas in Legal Drama 🤡

Behold! The curtain falls on the Samourai Wallet saga as its co-founders prepare to trade their innocence for a guilty verdict—marking the climax of a courtroom farce worthy of a Bulgakovian nightmare.

Enter Keonne Rodriguez and William Lonergan Hill, the architects of the Bitcoin mixing platform BTC (the cryptocurrency that makes lawyers rich). In 2024, they were accused of orchestrating a money-laundering opera, allegedly funneling $2 billion of ill-gotten gains. Prosecutors, ever the dramatic narrators, claim the wallet was a “criminal’s playground.” On Tuesday, the indie outlet The Rage dropped a bomb: Rodriguez and Hill are set to plead guilty, turning their legal drama into a tragicomedy.

“Samourai Wallet developers Keonne Rodriguez and William Hill have notified the court of a change of plea – expected to plead guilty. Hearings scheduled for tomorrow, 10:00 and 10.30,” The Rage shared on X with screenshots of the court filings. One wonders if the judge will don a monocle and declare, “This is not a drill—this is a legal farce!”
