This resulted in him securing $2 million in funding from Gemini founders the Winklevoss twins and Ripple.
Despite the backing from major crypto players, Deaton was considered a longshot against Warren, who held the seat in the US senate since 2013. She also maintained a comfortable 20 to 30 percentage point lead in the polls prior to the official vote count.

 Thank you, Massachusetts! I’m deeply grateful that you’ve decided to send me back to the Senate. Together, we’ll keep up the fight for a government that works for working people. <a href="https://t.co/DMBA8VkbbC" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pic.twitter.com/DMBA8VkbbC</a>

Following the victory, Warren will enter her third term in the US Senate.

In October, Warren and Deaton faced off in two senate <a href="https://insidebitcoins.com/news/elizabeth-warren-agrees-to-debate-john-deaton-before-november-election-slams-crypto-billionaires-backing-him" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">debates</a>. Crypto-friendly Deaton accused his rival of trying to build an “anti-crypto army” while neglecting other important issues that are negatively impacting the state’s lower and middle class.&nbsp;
Warren responded by saying that she is “fine” with anyone who wants to buy and sell crypto, and added that she just wants to ensure the nascent digital asset industry abides by the same rules as bankers and stockbrokers.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Both candidates were able to agree that the traditional banking system has failed many Americans. However, they could not reach a consensus on how problems in the sector should be addressed.

Meanwhile, the Associated Press also <a href="https://apnews.com/projects/election-results-2024/massachusetts/?r=0" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">called</a> a victory for Democrats in Massachusetts, giving Kamala Harris 11 electoral votes. Despite that, Donald Trump is <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=2024+United+States+presidential+election&amp;si=ACC90nyWw_5GPxZyH252nBTWOVq0UhOv-_rTs3Gr4G2tMA_7tA8TWPYR-b7MO0ZnR6z4djImUiyf4KGqyUAK7S1UnJP20M1z5VV0FfV2ZsvUjdElsQBfzWWg3vVKKZHXhsqDj2ITkemPZc1A2Pp6OBHaQUjAV7AU3mw5TAL-xz8SsA7h5KFULb2H1PTY4dTnj9OXKqYdllBj&amp;sa=X&amp;ved=2ahUKEwjK9c-omceJAxU9DRAIHcwMFzAQ99QDegYIAwgAEAo&amp;biw=767&amp;bih=730&amp;dpr=1.25" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">currently</a> in the lead with 267 electoral votes while Harris only has a collective 224 electoral votes as of 3:46 a.m. EST.
Trump has already declared victory while speaking at West Palm Beach in Florida, thanking voters for returning him to the White House. Democratic candidate Kamala Harris has yet to concede.
