Roger Ver Engages Roger Stone in Crypto Lobbying Amidst Tax Evasion Charges

Roger Ver, the influential crypto figure facing US charges for alleged $48 million tax evasion, has hired political strategist Roger Stone, known for his ties to former President Trump, to lobby against those very laws. Stone officially began his lobbying efforts in February 2025, focusing on revising the existing crypto tax regulations. This move comes as Ver was arrested in Spain in 2024 and US authorities are seeking his extradition. The high-profile nature of the case has ignited regulatory scrutiny on the crypto landscape. Ver’s decision to work with Stone brings significant implications for both the financial and political spheres, particularly given Trump’s recent stance towards cryptocurrency.
