Campaign Fundraising for John Deaton
Eleanor Terret of Fox Business reported that the lawyer-turned-senate candidate raised $1.36 million in Q1 for his campaign, while Warren only raised $1.1 million.
CryptoCaster Quick Check:
“Notable figures in the cryptocurrency space, including Ripple executives Brad Garlinghouse, Chris Larsen, Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, Charles Hoskinson, Jameson Lopp, and Anthony Scaramucci, have contributed to Deaton’s campaign,” Terret wrote to X on Friday.
Politico claims that donors to his campaign, including the Winklevoss twins, Garlinghouse, Larsen, and Scaramucci, contributed the maximum $6600.
Warren foresaw Deaton’s substantial, primarily corporate funding when she cautioned her followers in February ahead of Deaton’s announcement of her candidacy. At the time, she stated, “I’m not afraid, but this means we need to get ready to compete against funding from powerful special interests, Wall Street, and the GOP.”
It’s no secret that Deaton has a history in the crypto space. The lawsuit he most famously represented 75,000 holders of XRP against the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) ended last year, with a majority of the outcome going in Ripple’s favor.
In a number of other well-known cases, such as its battle with Grayscale, the company behind the biggest Bitcoin exchange-traded fund in the world, he has also attacked the SEC for treating the cryptocurrency sector unfairly. Elizabeth Warren vehemently objected to the SEC’s decision to permit the trading of Bitcoin spot ETFs as a result of that lawsuit.
Does Elizabeth Warren Have Cause for Concern?
Aside from cryptocurrency, other divisive issues between Warren and Deaton are the Federal Reserve’s loose monetary policy, the migrant crisis, and student loan forgiveness.
“I will overcome the odds once more, as I have done throughout my life as an underdog. The world will get to see it this time, that’s the only difference,” Deaton wrote to X on Friday.

Billionaire owners like Elon Musk, Larry Fink (BlackRock), and Jamie Dimon (JP Morgan Chase) often have a strong influence on the hidden agendas surrounding the paradigm shift brought about by cryptocurrency and emerging Web3 technologies. CryptoCaster stands apart. We have no billionaire owner or shareholders to please. Our journalism is dedicated to serving the public interest in crypto development and institutional disruptions, not profit motives.
We avoid the pitfall of much U.S. and global media, which often resorts to false equivalence in the name of neutrality and retail consumer protection. While fairness and transparency guide everything we do, we recognize that there is a right and wrong stance in the fight against fiat global banking interests and the monetary reconstruction driven by the emerging crypto ecology.
When we report on issues like the FTX, Binance, and Ripple crises, we’re not afraid to name names and uncover the truth. As a crypto sentinel, we offer a fresh, outsider perspective on global monetary disruption—something often missing from the insular American and European media bubble.
