ChainCatcher news, according to Cointelegraph, the representative lawyer of Bitcoin Fog founder Roman Sterlingov opposed a "long" prison sentence after his money laundering conviction. In a document submitted to the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia on August 15, Sterlingov's legal team did not seem to propose a specific sentencing recommendation in response to the prosecutor's request for a 20 to 30-year sentence, claiming that the government's recommendation was "unfounded" based on sentencing in similar cases.

Previous news, the founder of the cryptocurrency mixing service Bitcoin Fog was convicted in federal court in Washington for laundering tens of millions of dollars for a darknet market known for selling illegal drugs.
