The Mission
Free Samourai is an independent editorial and advocacy platform dedicated to covering the Samourai Wallet case and its implications for Bitcoin privacy, open-source software, and financial freedom.
Why This Case Matters
The prosecution of Samourai Wallet founders raises a fundamental question: Can developers be held criminally liable for building privacy-preserving, non-custodial software? If the answer is yes, the consequences will reach far beyond Bitcoin wallets.
What We Stand For
- Privacy is a human right, not a crime.
- Writing and publishing open-source code is protected speech.
- Non-custodial software is not a money-transmitting business.
- Fair process, transparent courts, and proportionate enforcement.
