Crypto critic Elizabeth Warren rises to top Democrat on Senate Banking Committee

2024-11-14 21:40

Senator Elizabeth Warren will be the top Democrat on the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee. The crypto critic’s new role means her input could have an impact crypto regulation in the US.

Senator Elizabeth Warren, the top crypto critic in the US Senate, has confirmed she’s set to be the senior most Democrat on the crucial Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee.

Warren, who defeated pro-crypto lawyer John Deaton for the Massachusetts senate seat in the 2024 elections, noted this in a statement published on Wednesday. Notably, the Senate Banking Committee is the entity that’s set to handle critical legislation on cryptocurrencies.

While Republicans have control of the Senate, any changes to this scenario likely during the mid-terms could see Warren become even more influential in the next two years.

Warren’s new Senate role

Warren’s elevated position follows the exit of Sherrod Brown, the former chairperson of the Senate Banking Committee. The Ohio Democrat lost in the 2024 U.S. election, with his defeat coming amid massive effort from across the crypto space to support the winner and new Ohio Senator-elect Bernie Moreno.

The 2024 US election has also seen the most pro-crypto lawmakers elected.

However, the crypto industry’s larger concern will be on the influence of the Dem’s ranking member in Senate. While Warran did mention crypto in the statement, she said:

“In the aftermath of the 2024 election, it’s powerfully important for Democratic leadership to show that we can make life more affordable for working people and to act with urgency to rebuild our middle class. For Massachusetts and hard-working families nationwide, this new role means a better chance to advance solutions like building more housing to lower prices and protecting consumers from private equity greed and special interest scams.”

Cryptocurrencies have rallied since Donald Trump won a second term by defeating Democrat Kamala Harris in Nov. 5. Bullish sentiment has seen Bitcoin break past the previous bull market’s high to hit highs of $93k.
