In a recent Coindesk interview, Roger Ver detailed his battle against what he claims is an unjust legal campaign by U.S. authorities. Speaking from Spain, where he has been forced to remain for nearly a year while awaiting extradition, Ver described the immense stress of living under constant threat. “Every time the doorbell rings or my phone rings, I’m terrified that this could be my last moment of freedom,” he said.

Ver, once an early investor in bitcoin (BTC) and one of its most vocal advocates, faces charges of mail fraud, tax evasion, and filing false tax returns—accusations he vehemently denies. He argues that his prosecution is not about financial wrongdoing but about silencing a critic of the U.S. government’s control over cryptocurrency. “This is pure lawfare from the Biden administration. They hated crypto and waged a war against any business or person promoting it,” he told Coindesk’s Christine Lee.

Having lost his final appeal in Spain, Ver could be extradited to the U.S. at any moment. In response, he has made a direct appeal to President Donald Trump, urging him to end what he calls a politically motivated attack. “The new Trump administration needs to see this for what it is and either drop all the charges or grant me a pardon,” Ver said. He insists that exonerating him would send a clear message that America supports entrepreneurship rather than punishing those who challenge its financial system.

Ver maintains that he has always been willing to pay any taxes legally required of him but that the IRS has never provided a clear calculation of what they claim he owes. “We filed Freedom of Information Act requests asking the IRS to show their calculations, and they still haven’t provided anything,” he explained. He also accused U.S. prosecutors of lying to the Spanish courts to push for his extradition.

Beyond his own case, Ver sees his legal troubles as part of a broader pattern of government crackdowns on the crypto industry. He pointed to others who have been prosecuted, including developers and entrepreneurs targeted simply for their involvement in the space. “If we don’t stand up for the innocent people they’re coming after now, there will be no one left to stand up when they come for you,” he warned.

While his fate remains uncertain, Ver remains hopeful that Trump will step in to stop the legal attacks against him and others in the crypto community. “If America wants to be the leader in bitcoin and crypto, it has to stop throwing entrepreneurs in jail over lawfare or their political views,” he said. As his extradition looms, Ver’s future now hinges on whether Trump will heed his call.
