John Deaton is a pro-Bitcoin, pro-crypto, and pro-business candidate; Elizabeth Warren is not. She is a lawmaker who can\u2019t pass a law. She is celebrity over results. Politician over leader. Form over substance.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Deaton is a prominent pro-XRP lawyer who has consistently criticized Warren and US financial regulators' approach to the emerging industry. He has played <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/crypto-attorney-calls-on-public-to-form-amicus-curiae-in-coinbase-binance-suits\/\">vital roles<\/a> in the SEC's cases against several crypto firms, including Ripple.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, Deaton enjoys strong crypto community backing. His super political action committee (PAC), the Commonwealth Unity Fund, recently received a <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/ripple-donates-1-million-to-support-john-deatons-effort-to-unseat-elizabeth-warren\/\">$1 million donation from Ripple<\/a>, and he has raised about $1.7 million, according to Federal Election Data.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Winklevoss twins have also supported other pro-crypto candidates. Last month, they <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/winklevoss-twins-slam-biden-for-anti-crypto-policies-endorse-trump-as-pro-crypto-choice\/\">donated $2 million in Bitcoin<\/a> to Donald Trump's presidential campaign, endorsing his efforts to <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/donald-trump-to-headline-2024-bitcoin-conference\/\">counter the Biden administration's anti-crypto policies<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Lampoons Warren<\/h2>\n<p class=\"s3\">The Winklevoss twins sharply criticized <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/senator-warren-wants-to-extend-anti-money-laundering-rules-to-crypto-miners-and-validators\/\">Warren's anti-crypto stance<\/a>, calling her &#8220;one of the single greatest threats to American prosperity.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to Tyler:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;[Warren] is the chief architect and driver of the Biden Administration\u2019s war on crypto. She wages this unlawful war by weaponizing government agencies to attack our industry through a combination of debanking, bad faith enforcement actions, and other abuses of power.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He added that Warren's stringent policies extend beyond the crypto industry. According to him, the Senator believes that free markets are bad and should be regulated extensively, that businesses are harmful, and that those who start and lead them are villains.<\/p>\n<p>Tyler concluded:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;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\u2019t 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.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss, founders of the Gemini exchange, each donated $500,000 worth of Bitcoin to support pro-crypto lawyer John Deaton&#8217;s effort to unseat Senator Elizabeth Warren.\u00a0 On July 18, the Winklevoss brothers explained their donations to the XRP advocate, calling him an &#8220;American hero&#8221; and the &#8220;only candidate who can defeat Elizabeth Warren in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":720,"featured_media":434107,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[79621,29],"tags":[77549,79316,74979,72399],"post_folder":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v21.9 (Yoast SEO v21.9.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Winklevoss twins donate $1 million in Bitcoin to unseat Elizabeth Warren<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Winklevoss twins donate $1M in Bitcoin to support pro-crypto lawyer John Deaton against Senator Elizabeth Warren.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/winklevoss-twins-donate-1-million-in-bitcoin-to-unseat-elizabeth-warren\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Winklevoss twins donate $1 million in Bitcoin to unseat Elizabeth Warren\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Winklevoss twins donate $1M in Bitcoin to support pro-crypto lawyer John Deaton against Senator Elizabeth Warren.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/winklevoss-twins-donate-1-million-in-bitcoin-to-unseat-elizabeth-warren\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"CryptoSlate\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2024-07-19T09:55:00+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/winklevoss-twins.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"1200\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"630\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Oluwapelumi Adejumo\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:creator\" content=\"@cryptoslate\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:site\" content=\"@cryptoslate\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Oluwapelumi Adejumo\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/winklevoss-twins-donate-1-million-in-bitcoin-to-unseat-elizabeth-warren\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/winklevoss-twins-donate-1-million-in-bitcoin-to-unseat-elizabeth-warren\/\"},\"author\":{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/author\/oluwapelumi-adejumo\/#person\",\"name\":\"Oluwapelumi Adejumo\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/author\/oluwapelumi-adejumo\/\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/author\/oluwapelumi-adejumo\/\"},\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/author\/oluwapelumi-adejumo\/#authorimage\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/profile-oluwapelumi-adejumo-1-300x300.jpg\",\"contentUrl\":\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/profile-oluwapelumi-adejumo-1-300x300.jpg\",\"caption\":\"Oluwapelumi Adejumo\"},\"jobTitle\":\"Senior Reporter\",\"description\":\"Oluwapelumi values Bitcoin's potential.
