The U.S. government has taken action against the co-founders of Tornado Cash, a virtual currency mixer, following a federal judge's ruling that the government had the authority to sanction them.

Roman Semenov, one of the co-founders, was sanctioned for allegedly supporting the North Korean hacking organization Lazarus Group.

The Justice Department also unsealed an indictment charging Semenov and co-founder Roman Storm with various crimes, and Storm was subsequently arrested.
