Galaxy CEO Warns Kamala Harris Against Senate Warren’s Anti-Crypto Stance
Galaxy CEO Mike Novogratz has taken a strong stand against Senator Elizabeth Warren’s anti-crypto position. In a recent podcast, he urged the US Vice President Kamala Harris to distance herself from Warren’s views.
Notably, this comment also highlights the growing importance of the digital assets space in the upcoming US election. Also, Donald Trump’s recent shift towards a pro-crypto stance has fueled discussions over the matter.
Mike Novogratz Warns VP Kamala Harris
During the podcast, Mike Novogratz did not hold back in his criticism of Warren. He emphasized the necessity for the Biden Administration to take a more favorable stance towards cryptocurrency.
“Your administration’s economic policy advisor, Elizabeth Warren, has an anti-crypto army banner ad. Start by distancing yourself from that,” he said pointing to Kamala Harris. Novogratz believes that the Biden Administration has been slow to address the significance of cryptocurrency in the political landscape.
Meanwhile, the Galaxy CEO also pointed out that politics is a critical battleground for crypto. He mentioned Ryan Selkis, who has been vocally advocating for crypto on X and even pushed former President Donald Trump to take a position on the matter. According to him, the Democrats only started to pay attention to cryptocurrency when it became a political issue.
However, despite his criticism, Mike Novogratz acknowledged that not all Democrats share Warren’s anti-crypto stance. This indicates a potential divide within the party on the approach to digital currencies and transparent crypto regulations.

John Deaton Slams Elizabeth Warren
Pro-XRP lawyer John Deaton, also challenging Warren politically, supported Mike Novogratz’s statements. Deaton reiterated the need for Harris to distance herself from Warren’s anti-crypto position.
In addition, he highlighted Massachusetts’ various crises, including migration, debt, and the opioid epidemic. He contrasted these issues with Warren’s focus on building an “anti-crypto army.”
Meanwhile, Deaton argued that Warren’s priorities were misaligned with the needs of Massachusetts. He emphasized that he is not just a pro-crypto candidate but a pro-freedom advocate, believing that government policies should foster innovation while protecting consumers.
Deaton stated, “When government implements policies fostering innovation while protecting consumers, Massachusetts always wins.” The debate over cryptocurrency’s role in the economy and politics is heating up.
The comments from the Galaxy CEO underscore the growing importance of digital currencies in political discourse. As the 2024 election cycle progresses, the stance on crypto could become a defining issue for candidates.
