Ripple CTO Reveals ‘Evil’ Truth About Roger Ver Case

Ripple’s Chief Technology Officer, David Schwartz, has shed light on the ongoing legal battle involving Roger Ver, a prominent figure in the cryptocurrency space and known for his early support of Bitcoin. Schwartz, in response to queries about the “Free Roger” movement, stated that Ver’s prosecution by US authorities extends far beyond the recent charges. He claims this persecution has been ongoing for years, leading to Ver renouncing his U.S. citizenship. Now, he faces potential extradition and tax evasion charges stemming from alleged underpayment of exit taxes on over 131,000 Bitcoin in 2014.
