I don't know if anyone has already reported this news:
Operators of Cryptocurrency Mixers Charged with Money Laundering
I literally posted exact same link on the same day, and you gave me a merit for that, but you seem to forget quickly Operators of Cryptocurrency Mixers Charged with Money Laundering
Maybe this latest press release from US Department of Justice is a good answer on your question, arrests and charging of creators and mixer creators/owners are not stopping, and that won't change under the new administration:

For the mixer policy to be reversed, the legal environment would have to improve a lot. I think that one of these would have to happen:
- Some mixers win their court cases.
Does this include Samourai wallet case against their developers also?- Some mixers win their court cases.
I think there is a chance for that to happen in 2025.
- Congress passes laws which explicitly protect mixers.
Not gonna happen in our lifetime. - The administration ends up being extremely pro-privacy, better than 99% of politicians in office.
Is there any chance that forum administration moves to El Salvador or other pro-privacy locations?The Trump administration has some interest in pleasing their crypto donors, but that can be achieved mainly just by getting prices to go up. They don't much care, and don't have to care, about privacy, disintermediation, decentralization, etc.
I don't Trump or their donors, they are turning everything into circus show, and Biden received donations from known scammer Sam Bankman-Fried.
