Winklevoss Twins Donate $1M in Bitcoin to Anti-Elizabeth Warren Crypto Lawyer John Deaton

Gemini co-founders and crypto evangelists Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss each contributed $500,000 to John Deaton's senate campaign in a bid to kick Senator Elizabeth Warren out of office in November.

Crypto enthusiasts Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss have each donated $500,000 to pro-XRP lawyer John Deaton’s senate campaign, in a bid to oust Senator Elizabeth Warren from office in November.

The twins announced their support for Deaton, who is running against incumbent Warren, in separate posts on X on Thursday. Tyler described the Massachusetts Senator as the “chief architect” and driver of the Biden administration’s war on the crypto industry.”

“When it comes to crypto, she is public enemy number one,” he asserted.

According to Winklevoss, President Joe Biden gave Warren veto power over his regulatory nominees in exchange for supporting his presidential campaign in 2020. This gave her a lot of power to shape regulatory bodies, essentially making the chiefs of these bodies her marionettes and bringing about the infamous Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s (FDIC) Operation Chokepoint 2.0.

“Crypto has the capacity to level the financial playing field and promote financial inclusion, fairness, and freedom for all. Elizabeth Warren should be embracing it. Instead, she has tried to kill it. Why? Because she can’t control it. Her lust for power and control is so great that she puts it ahead of the individual consumer that she pretends to care about and protect,” Tyler added.

To unseat Warren, Tyler and Cameron have each donated a total of $1 million in Bitcoin—8 BTC each—to the campaign of the crypto defender and Republican rival.

“John Deaton is pro-Bitcoin, pro-crypto, pro-business, and he will put an end to Elizabeth Warren’s war on crypto,” Cameron Winklevoss said in his tweet.

Ripple Donated $1 Million To Deaton’s Campaign Last Week

As reported by Ripple銭, last week Ripple donated $1 million to a super political action committee (PAC), Commonwealth Unity Fund, created by lawyer Jamer Murphy to help defeat anti-crypto senator Elizabeth Warren and elect Deaton.

The lawyer-turned-politician has a long history with Ripple after filing amicus briefs on behalf of thousands of XRP holders in the protracted case lodged by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in December 2020. Deaton has also weighed in during Coinbase’s clash with the securities regulator, further establishing his reputation in cryptocurrency circles.
