The DeFi Education Fund and Paradigm have jointly submitted an amicus brief in support of James Harper's appeal against the IRS. The brief argues that the district court's decision should be reversed and highlights the potential hindrance to blockchain's mainstream adoption if Harper's complaint is dismissed. Paradigm emphasizes the importance of privacy in blockchain technology and disagrees with the conclusion that there is no expectation of privacy when transacting on a crypto exchange. Harper's lawsuit against the IRS originated from a court order in 2017 that required Coinbase to provide data on its users to the IRS. Paradigm has previously filed similar amicus briefs in support of other crypto firms. Additionally, the DeFi Education Fund has filed its own amicus brief, urging the court to consider the Fourth Amendment rights of cryptocurrency users and highlighting the extensive collection of user information by the US government. The brief argues that the Fourth Amendment should protect against such invasions of privacy.
