US moves to drop Bitcoin advocate Roger Ver’s tax case with $50M deal
Less than a week after reports of an agreement between the “Bitcoin Jesus” and US authorities, Roger Ver’s 2024 criminal tax case may be nearing an end.
A California federal court is closer to dismissing the criminal indictment against Bitcoin advocate Roger Ver, known to many as “Bitcoin Jesus.”
In a Tuesday filing in the US District Court for the Central District of California, the US government filed a proposed order for Judge Michael Fitzgerald to dismiss Ver’s indictment without prejudice.
The government said it reached an agreement with Ver to pay $49.9 million and “all tax, penalties, and interest” on tax liabilities with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for his Bitcoin (BTC) holdings.
