The State of Florida fears this decision because it could be used as a reference by defense lawyers to make an argument for judges to junk cases that involve BTC and money laundering. Those prosecutors will fight tooth and nail to get Espinoza behind bars and make a sample of him.

It is not a question, if this is going to succeed, but rather when.
