PANews December 4 news, reported by Fox Business, that 'Bitcoin Jesus' Roger Ver's legal team filed a motion to dismiss his tax evasion charges, claiming the case involves government overreach. Ver is accused of failing to pay taxes on Bitcoin gains in 2017 and undervaluing his assets when renouncing his citizenship in 2014.
The legal team stated that Ver had followed the limited tax guidelines at the time and hired lawyers and appraisal firms for compliance, believing the charges to be politically motivated. With the Trump administration's commitment to ending the crackdown on the crypto industry, the case may be dismissed.
