Lawyers for Roman Sterlingov, the founder of crypto mixer Bitcoin Fog, have argued against a lengthy prison term following his conviction for money laundering.

- In March, a court found him guilty of money laundering and illegal transfer of funds.

- Prosecutors are seeking 20 to 30 years in prison, but his lawyers say that is unreasonable.

- Bitcoin Fog allegedly moved $400 million in BTC related to illegal activity.

- A trial is scheduled for August 21.
