when the samourai devs had their homes raided by heavily armed cops 2 years ago it sent a chill throughout the bitcoin industry i felt it first hand, shit was scary and nobody knew what was about to come next when the dust cleared a bit, arrested and funds seized, it was obvious they were going to need significant legal defense funds made a few calls, but nobody wanted to stick their neck out, reasonable, i myself was hoping someone else would handle it, a young family of my own that i did not want to put at additional risk but someone had to do it, so we launched the p2prights fund through @bitcoinpolicy, still proud of those guys to this day for taking that risk head on when nobody else would in total, we raised about a million dollars worth of bitcoin, well short of what was needed to fight the case properly, mostly from individuals, honestly it was pretty disappointing, made me rethink a bunch of things anyway, we still need to free samourai, lets get it done
