Senator Elizabeth Warren, along with five senators, is supporting the "Digital Asset Anti-Money Laundering Act" to enhance cryptocurrency regulations in combating illicit finance. The bill, criticized by the crypto industry, extends financial oversight to miners, validators, and wallet providers under the Bank Secrecy Act. Senators Warnock, Butler, and Van Hollen, newly added to the Senate Banking Committee, indicate the committee's role in shaping crypto laws. Senators Hickenlooper and Luján <a href="https://www.warren.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/warren-expands-coalition-of-banking-committee-support-for-bill-cracking-down-on-cryptos-use-in-money-laundering-drug-trafficking-sanctions-evasion" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">joined</a> as co-sponsors.

Van Hollen expressed concerns about crypto's lack of regulation, emphasizing its misuse by criminals. Warren, advocating for the bill, aligns with the Treasury Department's call for more authority against illicit crypto activities. Representative McHenry suggests the House explore anti-money laundering regulations, hinting at collaboration with the Senate.
