Senator Warren Calls for Anti-Corruption Measures in Crypto Legislation

US Senator Elizabeth Warren has expressed her disapproval over the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) settlement with Tron founder Justin Sun. In a recent notice, Warren accused the SEC of not doing enough to prevent corruption in the cryptocurrency industry.

The controversy surrounds Sun's investments in crypto ventures tied to President Trump and his family, including World Liberty Financial. The SEC settled an unrelated case against Sun for $10 million, which has been criticized as a lenient punishment.

Warren emphasized that any cryptocurrency legislation moving through Congress must prioritize anti-corruption measures. She noted that the market structure bill currently being considered by the Senate Banking Committee could be a key opportunity to address these concerns.
