Elizabeth Warren, the US Senator known for her staunch opposition to cryptocurrencies and Bitcoin (BTC), has faced criticism from industry insiders who believe her motivations go beyond concerns about “illicit finance.” 

Two prominent figures in the crypto industry, Sam Lyman, Director of Public Policy for Riot, a Bitcoin mining company, and Caitlin Long, Founder of Custodia Bank, have shed light on what they perceive as Warren’s true intentions in her fight against Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

Plot To Destroy Bitcoin In Favor Of CBDCs?

Lyman asserts that Warren’s ultimate goal is to dismantle Bitcoin and pave the way for introducing a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC). He points to Warren’s focus on crypto money laundering and her introduction of the Digital Asset Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Act as evidence of her underlying agenda. 

Lyman argues that her bill, if passed, would impose impossible burdens on miners, validators, and wallet providers, effectively crippling the industry within the United States.

According to Lyman, Warren’s excitement about the prospect of a CBDC was evident when “she let her guard down” during an interview, coinciding with the month she introduced the crypto AML legislation. 

Lyman suggests these two aspects are intricately linked, indicating Warren’s enthusiasm for a government-controlled digital currency.

Warren’s Control Over Financial Appointees

Lyman’s assertions are echoed by Caitlin Long, who responded to his statement on X (formerly Twitter) by claiming that Warren’s control over financial services appointees within the Biden Administration is part of her orchestration of “Operation ChokePoint2.0” to facilitate the rollout of a US CBDC. Long suggests that this knowledge has been “an open secret” in Washington, D.C., since January.

Industry experts argue that Warren’s anti-crypto legislation and Warren’s influence over financial services appointees serve as steps towards achieving her ultimate goal of eliminating competition and establishing a government-backed digital currency. 

Lyman and Long caution that anyone supporting Warren’s AML bill should know they are endorsing the initial move toward implementing a CBDC.

As highlighted by Lyman and Long, Warren’s battle against Bitcoin and the crypto industry raises concerns about the impact on innovation and the potential departure of crypto-related businesses from the United States. 

As the debate unfolds, stakeholders will closely monitor the actions and intentions of influential figures like Elizabeth Warren, knowing that the future of cryptocurrencies hangs in the balance.

It remains to be seen how Warren’s legislation will progress and its implications for the future of cryptocurrencies in the country.
