The cryptocurrency industry in the U.S. is attempting to reshape the political landscape through significant financial contributions to Republican Party election efforts. Billionaire crypto entrepreneurs, including the Winklevoss twins, have successfully executed a masterplan to buy political influence with millions in donations. This push comes amid allegations of 'Operation Choke Point 2.0,' a regulatory crackdown believed to have led to the downfall of banks like Silvergate and Signature Bank. David Sacks, the incoming White House Crypto Czar, has called for scrutiny into these regulatory efforts. SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce has also acknowledged the need for regulatory clarity, urging the SEC to address chokepoints, clarify jurisdiction and securities definitions, and work with crypto entities to provide regulatory clarity and adjustments.
