Roger Ver, also known as "Bitcoin Jesus," is appealing to President Donald Trump to prevent his extradition to the United States. Ver, who renounced his US citizenship in 2014, is facing federal charges that could result in a prison sentence of over a hundred years. In his plea on Twitter, Ver emphasizes his American identity and requests the President's help. Ver's involvement in the cryptocurrency industry began in 2011 when he discovered Bitcoin and became one of its earliest advocates. His journey took a turn in 2017 when he shifted his support from Bitcoin to Bitcoin Cash. President Trump, who has implemented crypto-friendly policies, finds himself at the center of this plea from a prominent figure in the crypto community. Ver's return to the US is anticipated due to the President's recent executive order related to cryptocurrencies.
