<p>Ripple CEO’s statement coincides with how crypto voters are viewing the Biden government and the upcoming elections. A good example of this is John Deaton’s political campaign. It has drawn interest, particularly from the <a href="https://coingape.com/xrp-lawyer-john-deaton-commences-crypto-donations-for-us-senate-race/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XRP community</a>. Deaton is well known for his open support of cryptocurrencies. Many in the Web3 and XRP communities are thrilled about his commitment to the cryptocurrency industry. His nomination might facilitate the Senate’s passage of cryptocurrency-related legislation.</p>
<p>Encouragement for Deaton’s political run also coincides with increased attention to Elizabeth Warren. According to Bloomberg, Elizabeth Warren’s negative stance against the bitcoin industry has drawn criticism from the industry.</p>

<p>Voters who use cryptocurrency will be very important in the US elections this year. Formerly, the US EIA was ordered to stop collecting data on energy use associated with Bitcoin mining activities by the Biden administration. The ruling resulted from a lawsuit filed by the Texas Blockchain Council and Riot Platforms, among other industry players, to stop the data collection.</p>
<p>The EIA was tasked with gathering the data by the Joe Biden administration. The amount of power used for cryptocurrency mining is a contentious topic, yet data collection was required just before the election. This gives rise to worries that the government under Biden 2.0 might not support the bitcoin industry. This suggests that the cryptocurrency community is unwavering in its belief that survival in difficult circumstances is possible.</p>
<p>One in five Americans currently owns digital assets, according to Forbes. 52 million people, to be exact. The amount is significant enough to have a significant impact on the outcome of the US presidential election. Thus, any government hoping to win an election would probably need to win over Bitcoin enthusiasts.</p>
