Anthony Scaramucci Backs XRP Lawyer Deaton’s US Senate Race with Fundraiser

Anthony Scaramucci will likely hold a fundraiser for pro-XRP lawyer John Deaton’s US senate race. According to an X post by Fox journalist  Eleanor Terrett, Scaramucci is all in favor of John Deaton’s Senate war with Elizabeth Warren. Singing the same tone, Deaton has received humongous support from the crypto community.

Anthony Scaramucci Supports John Deaton

Scaramucci will be planning a fundraiser for XRP lawyer John Deaton in New York. The support comes after John Deaton had announced that he would be contending against Elizabeth Warren for the US Senate seat. However, Warren has also not just been sitting on a fence. In response to recent speculations that she will face a challenger from the XRP party for her Senate seat, Senator Elizabeth Warren had organized her network of supporters. Reportedly, Warren had asked her supporters for help in opposing XRP supporter John Deaton via emails and online fundraisers.

John Deaton Gets the Crypto Support

Anthony Scaramucci is not the only one to jump in favor of Deaton.  Deaton’s campaign has received attention, particularly from the XRP community. Deaton is well-known for openly endorsing cryptocurrencies and for doing so. His commitment to the cryptocurrency industry has pleased many in the XRP and greater Web3 communities, and his campaign may be a way to advance cryptocurrency-related legislation in the Senate. On the other hand, Bloomberg highlighted that Elizabeth Warren was receiving backlash from the crypto community for her not-so-friendly crypto stance.

In the 2024 elections, supporters of cryptocurrency will cast up to 1.9 million ballots. Additionally, this would be sufficient to sway the election’s outcome and perhaps even turn it. In this case, it would seem reasonable for political candidates to jump on the Bitcoin bandwagon.
