US Senator Elizabeth Warren (Democrat from Massachusetts) wrote a letter to the blockchain association stating that lobbying efforts in the cryptocurrency industry have "undermined" the federal government's counter-terrorism efforts and claimed that cryptocurrencies are being used by terrorist organizations, including Hamas, to circumvent sanctions. Warren accused the blockchain association and "other cryptocurrency interest groups" of lobbying efforts that are "focused on delaying and denying new rules that would restrict terrorists and criminals from using cryptocurrency."
