Samourai Wallet's conspiracy was that they knew criminals could use their software, not that they knew of any specific illicit use. Think about the implications of such a legal theory, such broad language implicates every software developer, miner, & node operator.
"Samourai earned fees, therefore they were a business and how they wound up on the wrong end of a conspiracy to operate an unlicensed money transmitting business, right?" The truth may surprise you, Samourai could have operated for free & they would have still been prosecuted.
What do guns, Toyotas, & Excel spreadsheets have in common? The executives don't go to prison when crimes are committed with any of those tools. This Bitcoin wallet is a different story. Meet the developer sentenced to 5-years in prison + $250k fine for his code.
Many questioned why Samourai Wallet took the plea deal? When facing 25-years in prison + $237m forfeiture order + being barred from talking about his own intent in front of a jury + a judge who refused to hear the defense arguments = plea deal was the clear path forward.
