We urge the government to cease this retaliatory action and allow Roger Ver to continue contributing to a free and open financial future without persecution.

The Visionary: Roger Ver

Roger Ver, famously known as "Bitcoin Jesus," has been a visionary force in the world of cryptocurrency and a passionate advocate for decentralized finance. Since the early days of Bitcoin, Roger has tirelessly championed economic freedom, seeing in cryptocurrency the potential to break down the walls of traditional finance and empower individuals worldwide. His investments, support for groundbreaking projects, and commitment to expanding cryptocurrency adoption have made him a cornerstone of the blockchain industry. But now, despite his transformative contributions, Roger faces severe legal challenges that threaten his freedom and life’s work. This campaign seeks to rally supporters worldwide to stand behind Roger in his fight for justice, freedom, and the ideals he has tirelessly defended.

The Allegations

Roger Ver's journey began with a run for political office in 2000, which marked the start of a series of unjust encounters with U.S. authorities. After facing draconian treatment, Ver chose to leave the U.S. in 2006, and in 2014, he renounced his U.S. citizenship, seeking freedom from an oppressive system that had repeatedly targeted him for his outspoken beliefs. In response, the U.S. government has since pursued Ver relentlessly, charging him with mail fraud, tax evasion, and filing false tax returns. These charges are not based in reality—they are a vendetta by the U.S. Department of Justice and the IRS, aimed at silencing one of their most outspoken critics. The timing and fervor of these allegations clearly indicate a retaliatory intent, seeking to make an example of Ver and dissuade others from following in his footsteps.

hijacking bitcoin

In Hijacking Bitcoin, Roger Ver uncovers the concealed story behind Bitcoin's evolution and the forces that deviated it from its original path. What started as a technology promising economic freedom became entangled in corporate interests and centralized control. This groundbreaking book reveals how Bitcoin’s original vision was undermined by powerful groups driven by profit and control. It illuminates why Ver’s unwavering commitment to self-sovereignty and economic freedom makes him a target. Hijacking Bitcoin is more than just a history—it’s a call to preserve the foundational ideals of cryptocurrency.
