John Deaton Blames Sen Elizabeth Warren

The crypto community backlash against Senator Elizabeth Warren for introducing a bipartisan bill to kill crypto, which continues to draw support from other senators. The Digital Asset Anti-Money Laundering Act aims to close loopholes and combat money laundering, ransomware attacks, sanctions evasion, drug trafficking, elder fraud, and other illicit financial activities in crypto.

John Deaton has expressed concerns about the timing and senators supporting the crypto bill. Despite Warren’s bills have never been passed, it has come at a time when crypto market bulls push crypto prices higher.

Deaton on November 12 said Senator Elizabeth Warren has ignored the corruption and malfeasance of the U.S. SEC amid a desire to expand government overreach. The crypto crackdown efforts of Warren and Gary Gensler have affected investors.

“As long as her pal Gary Gensler does her bidding related to crypto, she turns a blind eye to real corruption, he added. He believes there have always been personal reasons behind the intentional failure to oversight the SEC.
