Fox journalist Eleanor Terrett on February 14 highlighted that John Deaton changed his address from Rhode Island to Massachusetts, sparking speculation in the crypto community as he is a major voice for crypto and challenged Elizabeth Warren multiple times. 
Deaton responded with a smile, saying he had lived in Roxbury, East Boston, Malden, and Swansea in Massachusetts. As a Massachusetts lawyer for 23 years, he represented Massachusetts asbestos victims against corporations and insurance companies. 
He graduated from Law School at New England School of Law in Boston. Also, signed the USMC enlistment papers in Boston and was selected by the Marines to represent the Commonwealth of Massachusetts over students at Harvard, BC, BU, and Suffolk Law Schools. 
“I couldn’t afford Harvard, but I did beat out a Harvard applicant. My second daughter is a senior at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, said Deaton, emphasizing his family and history in the state. 
In addition to representing Massachusetts mesothelioma victims for over two decades, Deaton has represented 627 XRP holders in Massachusetts against the SEC’s overreach as amicus counsel in the<a href="https://coingape.com/tag/ripple-vs-sec" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> SEC vs Ripple</a>. Moreover, he has been handling issues for Massachusetts Coinbase customers in the <a href="https://coingape.com/tag/coinbase-vs-sec" target="_blank" rel="noopener">SEC vs Coinbase</a> lawsuit. 
He also has a business loan with a Massachusetts Bank, saying that “the list goes on regarding my connection to Massachusetts.”

Politco and The Boston Globe have reported that pro-crypto Deaton is taking a “serious look” at running as a Republican against crypto-critic Elizabeth Warren. The 2024 United States Senate election in Massachusetts page on Wikipedia says attorney John Deaton is a potential Republican candidate.
