Star Elizabeth Warren and star Cynthia Rams have gaps on cryptocurrency issues。

On Thursday, Austrian Warren told the SEC's approval of the BTC Spot ETF:

"In terms of law and policy, the SEC's decision on a Bitcoin ETF was wrong.。If the SEC allows cryptocurrencies to penetrate deeper into our financial system, it is increasingly important that cryptocurrencies follow basic anti-money laundering rules.。"

In an Anti-Crypto Campaign, Warren Calls on Lawmakers to Support Digital Asset Anti-Money Laundering Bill。The bill aims to implement bank-like regulation for the crypto market。Importantly, the bill could give the SEC regulatory powers for the crypto space。

Cynthia Rams Artist makes different statements about these approvals。The Rams Artist issued an official statement saying:

"I am pleased that the SEC has approved all 11 Bitcoin spot exchange traded funds.。"

"Importantly, today the Commission's action is limited to the ETP of holding one non-securities commodity, Bitcoin."。This interface should be interpreted as the SEC's willingness to approve listing criteria for crypto-asset securities。"
