Senator Warren: Winklevoss Twins Don’t Want “Fair Regulation”, John Deaton Counters

As a seasoned analyst with over two decades of experience in financial regulation and technology, I have witnessed the evolving landscape of the digital asset industry and its complexities firsthand. In this current political climate, it is essential to examine statements made by key figures like Senator Elizabeth Warren and John Deaton regarding cryptocurrency regulations objectively.


Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren has once more accused the Winklevoss twins of hindering equitable regulations within their industry, as expressed in a recent email. However, Senator Warren’s Republican rival, John Deaton – a renowned XRP attorney – has countered by shedding light on the true context behind her assertion.

Senator Warren on Crypto Regulations

In her recent email, Senator Elizabeth Warren stated that some of the conservative crypto-funded groups have been spending huge to advertise against her. She also accused them of spreading misinformation against her with the goal of supporting her Republican opponent John Deaton. Last week, XRP lawyer John Deaton won the Republican nominee from Massachusetts for the upcoming US elections in 2024.

Senator Warren pointed out that the co-founders of Gemini exchange, the Winklevoss Twins, were backing organizations in the cryptocurrency sector. According to Warren, this was causing frustration among the twins because she has advocated for “fair regulations” within the crypto industry. The Massachusetts senator stated that their displeasure stems from her proposals for regulations that safeguard ordinary workers.

Tyler Winklevoss, a co-founder of Gemini, labeled Senator Warren’s latest email as “misleading” due to her comments regarding cryptocurrency regulations. Winklevoss argued that Warren was incorrectly suggesting that the crypto industry is displeased because she has proposed “fair regulations,” when in fact, he claimed, it’s about a misunderstanding of those regulations.

In addition, he emphasized that the Senator is engaging in an illegal battle against the cryptocurrency industry, affecting over 50 million American crypto investors. Winklevoss encouraged voters to back attorney John E. Deaton to halt this chaos and counteract Warren’s aggressive regulatory strategy.

Elizabeth Warren’s recent campaign email appears incredibly misleading. Instead of truthfully admitting her antagonistic stance, she suggests that the displeasure from the crypto industry is due to her advocating for fair regulations. However, the reality is that she has been leading an unwarranted crusade against the crypto sector and the 50 million Americans who are its enthusiasts. Consider voting for @JohnEDeaton1 to put a stop to this unnecessary hostility.

John Deaton Comes In Support of Winklevoss Twins

Lawyer John Deaton, head of CryptoLawUS, has criticized Senator Elizabeth Warren for overlooking the truth in her methods of cryptocurrency regulation. The day prior, he also took issue with Senator Warren for advocating on behalf of banks implicated in money laundering activities.

Deaton consistently advocates for “intelligent, custom-fitted regulations” across the entire cryptocurrency sector. Additionally, he underscores his involvement in facilitating direct communication between citizens and their elected officials via the Connect to Congress platform.

As stated by Deaton, the app has successfully enabled over 100,000 messages to be sent, ensuring every member of Congress received them regarding the digital asset sector. Moreover, he voiced criticism towards Senator Warren, accusing her of breaching her oath by being involved in the manipulation of testimony from SEC Chair Gary Gensler.

Over time, the Senator from Massachusetts has been vocal and proactive in expressing his opposition towards the cryptocurrency sector. Notably, the top leadership within the Democratic Party seems to be less engaged with cryptocurrencies, as Vice President Kamala Harris recently overlooked crypto-related legislation in her policy choices.
