<p class="is-style-lead">A German court rejected the appeal against the hefty sentences given to the management of Cyberbunker for hosting deep web black markets on their servers.</p> 
<p>The German Federal Court of Justice largely upheld the defendants’ convictions in the so-called “Cyberbunker trial” in a <a href="https://www.bundesgerichtshof.de/SharedDocs/Pressemitteilungen/DE/2023/2023156.html;jsessionid=71C57C0CCE0A166A76EB1B2EFFB8A8E6.internet972?nn=10690868" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">ruling</a> on Sept. 12, 2023. The eight defendants’ sentences between 1 and 5 years 9 months of prison have not been overturned.</p> 
<p>The development follows recent <a href="https://crypto.news/german-hosting-stored-in-nato-bunker-confronts-tornadocash-like-verdict/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">reports</a> that the appeal was filed following the December 2021 sentencing for managing the web hosting company located in a former NATO bunker.</p>

<p>The case was highlighted as legal “new ground” since the hosting company had no proven involvement with the illegal websites it hosted, allowing any content except child pornography and terrorism.</p> 
<p>The group was charged for enabling over 250,000 illicit transactions on crypto-powered deep web black markets despite the judge admitting that the company administrators being aware that some of their customers hosted illegal services is insufficient to prove intent to assist in the criminal activities.</p> 
<p>The case parallels with others like Tornado Cash, showing that people developing products and services meant to enhance privacy with no concern for who uses them are being increasingly targeted by the legal system.</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="tornado-cash-case">Tornado Cash case</h2> 
<p>Tornado Cash, a prominent crypto firm known for its commitment to user anonymity, recently found itself in the spotlight for contentious reasons.</p>

<p>The firm’s commitment to crypto anonymity brought it under scrutiny as the regulatory landscape for cryptocurrencies becomes increasingly stringent. Founders of the firm were indicted for allegedly assisting in the laundering of over a billion dollars, with a significant portion being linked to North Korea.</p> 
<p>The accusations suggest that Tornado Cash’s developers aided hackers and other cybercriminals in sanitizing stolen cryptocurrencies, which resulted in an outcry from regulatory authorities and intensified the debate on the boundaries of crypto anonymity and regulations.</p> 
<p>This high-profile case underscores the complexities and challenges the crypto industry faces as it navigates the dichotomy of privacy and regulation in a rapidly evolving digital age.</p>
