 <li style="font-weight: 400">Winklevoss twins donated $1M in Bitcoin (BTC) to John Deaton, criticizing Elizabeth Warren’s stance on crypto.</li> 
 <li style="font-weight: 400">Polymarket’s data showed that Trump led with 64%, while Biden fell to fourth place with 5%.</li> 
</ul> 
In a recent turn of events, Gemini founders Cameron Winklevoss and Tyler Winklevoss, aka the Winklevoss twins, have each donated $500,000 in Bitcoin [BTC] to John Deaton’s campaign, totaling 16 BTC or $1 million. 
<h3 id="span-style-font-weight-400-winklevoss-twins-move-against-warren-span">Winklevoss Twins Move Against Warren</h3> 
This substantial contribution aimed to support Deaton’s political campaign and challenge against US Senator Elizabeth Warren.&nbsp; 
Citing the reasons for the same, Tyler Winklevoss took to X (formerly Twitter) and <a href="https://x.com/tyler/status/1814018079032021437">noted</a>,&nbsp; 
“Elizabeth Warren is one of the single greatest threats to American prosperity. When it comes to crypto, she is public enemy number one.”&nbsp; 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">

Criticizing Biden’s approach towards crypto, Winklevoss added,&nbsp; 
“She’s [Elizabeth Warren] the chief architect and driver of the Biden Administration’s war on crypto.”&nbsp; 
<h3 id="span-style-font-weight-400-second-donation-to-support-crypto-candidates-span">Second Donation To Support Crypto Candidates</h3> 
This recent donation follows the Winklevoss twins’ earlier <a href="https://bitcoinworld.co.in/winklevoss-twins-pledge-1m-each-for-trump-claiming-biden-waged-war-on-crypto/">contribution</a> of $2 million worth of BTC to former President Donald Trump’s campaign. 
Thereby, their ongoing financial support underscores their dedication to endorsing candidates who champion a more crypto-friendly regulatory landscape.&nbsp; 
Further in his tweet, the Gemini founder argued that Warren’s influence reaches far beyond mere policymaking, extending deeply into the operational decisions of regulatory bodies that impact the cryptocurrency sector.&nbsp; 
<h3 id="span-style-font-weight-400-why-deaton-and-not-warren-span">Why Deaton And Not Warren?</h3> 
He further accused Warren of leveraging government agencies to obstruct the crypto industry, employing tactics such as. 
“Debanking, bad faith enforcement actions, and other abuses of power.” 
Drawing a comparison between the two, Winkelvoss noted,

He put it best when he said,&nbsp; 
“John Deaton is an American hero; Elizabeth Warren is not. John Deaton is a pro-Bitcoin, pro-crypto, and pro-business candidate; Elizabeth Warren is not.”&nbsp; 
Echoing similar sentiments, crypto influencer, Wendy O said,&nbsp; 
<img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-77293" src="http://bitcoinworld.co.in/wp-content/uploads/Wendy-O-720x230.webp" alt="" width="720" height="230" srcset="https://bitcoinworld.co.in/wp-content/uploads/Wendy-O-720x230.webp 720w, https://bitcoinworld.co.in/wp-content/uploads/Wendy-O-1080x345.webp 1080w, https://bitcoinworld.co.in/wp-content/uploads/Wendy-O-768x245.webp 768w, https://bitcoinworld.co.in/wp-content/uploads/Wendy-O.webp 1164w" sizes="(max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px"> 
<h3 id="span-style-font-weight-400-role-of-crypto-in-the-upcoming-elections-span">Role Of Crypto In The Upcoming Elections</h3> 
This underscored the important role of cryptocurrency in the upcoming U.S. presidential election, and revealed that Biden’s position on crypto is not a top priority for many crypto voters.&nbsp; 
This was further confirmed by Bitcoinworld’s analysis of Polymarket prediction <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/presidential-election-winner-2024?tid=1721386261872">data</a>, wherein Trump led with 64% of the vote, followed by Kamala Harris at 22%.
