Bitcoin Jesus Roger Ver spent $600,000 to hire a Trump ally to deal with tax charges.

Gate.io According to the New York Times, Roger Ver, the “Bitcoin Jesus”, hired Roger Stone, an ally of Trump, to lobby for him for a fee of $600,000, with the goal of pushing for changes to the laws related to tax charges.

Ver is currently facing allegations of email fraud, tax evasion, and submitting false tax returns, with the IRS claiming that his actions resulted in a loss of $48 million. Ver denies these allegations and explains that at the time there were obstacles in the tax payment process due to insufficient Bitcoin liquidity.

Stone responded by saying that he did not directly lobby government officials, but rather provided consulting advice for Ver’s legal team.
