Cryptocurrency investor Roger Ver, known as "Bitcoin Jesus," has reached a deferred prosecution agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice, agreeing to pay approximately $48 million to settle a tax evasion case. Ver was accused in 2024 of concealing the value of his crypto assets and evading tax obligations related to taxes owed before renouncing his U.S. citizenship. Reports indicate that Ver paid $600,000 to Roger Stone, a long-time ally of Trump, and hired several Trump-associated lawyers and lobbying groups to seek political support.
