Quotes that support the claim

Earlier in the year, Deaton launched an official campaign to unseat Elizabeth Warren in the US Senate. Due to Warren’s pronounced anti-crypto stance, his campaign has drawn enormous support from industry leaders.

He announced his bid for Warren’s Senate seat representing Massachusetts in February, running as a Republican against the 11-year Democratic Party incumbent. Warren has long campaigned against crypto and introduced bills she claims are to “level the playing field” between crypto and traditional financial markets, which her detractors claim would drive innovation and investment out of the United States.
