IT engineer Billy Markus, who co-created the original meme token Dogecoin with Jackson Palmer and is now a major crypto influencer, has taken to Twitter to share his stance on the recent anti-crypto campaign started by Senator Warren. In particular, Markus Warren bashed the “anti-crypto army” that she is building.
Markus posted a computer-generated image of Senator Warren wearing a US Army uniform and holding a machine gun with a group of armed soldiers. “Join Elizabeth Warren’s anti-crypto army,” the DOGE co-founder commented.
Warren’s Anti-Crypto Campaign
A recent Forbes article reveals that Warren is building an “anti-crypto” army as part of her re-election campaign. This came right after Coin Group warned that the US ban on the TikTok app could be just the beginning followed by a ban on leading digital currency Bitcoin.
Warren, as a member of the Senate Banking Committee that oversees the US SEC regulatory agency, actively participated in a number of recent bills against Bitcoin and the crypto space in general that were implemented last year.
Warren claims that among the “sins” of crypto use is that various criminals, including drug lords and human traffickers, use crypto to launder their ill-gotten gains.
Cryptoflu’s reaction to Warren’s steps
Among other major figures in the crypto space who reacted to the creation of the “anti-crypto army” were Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson, pro-XRP founder of CryptoLaw John Deaton, and crypto trader and podcaster Scott Melker.
Many in the crypto space believe that the US government is making way for its own CBDC, hence the recent attacks against several crypto companies and exchanges, including the latest lawsuit by the CFTC against Binance and its CEO, CZ.
The same ground is named after recently closed major crypto-friendly banks Silvergate, Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank, which had provided banking services to Ripple Labs and other crypto firms.
