Elizabeth Warren Demands Crypto Regulation Free from Industry Influence
Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren has intensified her push for stricter cryptocurrency oversight, advocating for investor protections and systemic risk mitigation. Her MSNBC appearance underscored a legislative approach independent of industry lobbying, with particular emphasis on banning elected officials from crypto trading to eliminate conflicts of interest.
Warren framed weak existing regulations as inadequate to prevent potential economic destabilization. While maintaining her critical stance, she notably avoided condemning the GENIUS Act—a stablecoin bill she previously opposed—instead calling for expanded market structure rules to address regulatory gaps.
