伊麗莎白·沃倫（Elizabeth Warren）（D-Mass。）對保羅·阿特金斯（Paul Atkins）與加密貨幣行業的聯繫提出了疑問，她認為這可能會構成利益衝突

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) is raising questions about Paul Atkins’ connections to the cryptocurrency industry that she believes could pose conflicts of interest if he is confirmed as SEC Chair.

參議員伊麗莎白·沃倫（D-Mass。

In a letter dated Mar. 23, Warren said that Atkins served as an advisor to the failed cryptocurrency exchange FTX from 2021 until its collapse in November 2022.

沃倫（Warren）在3月23日的一封信中說，阿特金斯（Atkins）從2021年到2022年11月倒閉，擔任失敗的加密貨幣交易所FTX的顧問。

"Your deep involvement with FTX and other high-paying crypto clients raises questions about your approach to crypto regulation—and concerns about the extent of your knowledge of FTX's illegal activities," Warren stated in the letter.

沃倫在信中說：“您對FTX和其他高薪加密客戶的深入參與會引發有關您對加密貨幣監管方法的疑問，並擔心您對FTX非法活動的了解程度。”

The senator, who won a third term last year, asked Atkins what advice his firm Patomak Global Partners provided to FTX and whether he was aware of or complicit in any wrongdoing that led to the firm’s bankruptcy, which cost investors billions.

這位參議員去年贏得了第三任期，他問阿特金斯（Atkins）的公司Patomak全球合作夥伴向FTX提供了什麼建議，以及他是否意識到或同謀導致該公司破產的任何不當行為，這使投資者損失了數十億美元。

According to the Wall Street Journal, Patomak agreed to serve as an adviser to FTX in January 2022.

根據《華爾街日報》的報導，帕特馬克同意在2022年1月擔任FTX的顧問。

Patomak didn't immediately return Benzinga's request for comment.

Patomak沒有立即退還Benzinga的置評請求。

Warren also pointed to Atkins' long-standing relationship with the Chamber of Digital Commerce, a prominent cryptocurrency lobbying group where he has served as an advisor since 2020.

沃倫還指出，阿特金斯（Atkins）與數字貿易商會（Chamber of Digital Commerce）的長期關係，該商會是一個著名的加密貨幣遊說小組，他自2020年以來一直擔任顧問。

Additionally, Warren expressed concerns over President Donald Trump's Official Trump COIN/USD coin and the SEC's statement that meme coins are not securities.

此外，沃倫（Warren）對唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）總統的官方特朗普硬幣/美元硬幣表示擔憂，以及美國證券交易委員會（SEC）的聲明，即模因硬幣不是證券。

"The Staff Statement appears to have the effect of entirely exempting President Trump's meme coin from the SEC's scrutiny," she said.

她說：“員工聲明似乎具有完全免除特朗普總統的模因硬幣的效果。”

Why It Matters: Warren's questions to Atkins come ahead of his Thursday confirmation hearing in the Senate. He was nominated to lead the regulator by Trump in December 2024.

為什麼很重要：沃倫對阿特金斯的問題是在參議院週四確認聽證會之前。他在2024年12月被提名特朗普領導監管機構。

Warren, seen as an anti-cryptocurrency crusader, previously pressed Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick ahead of the latter’s confirmation in February.

沃倫（Warren）被視為一名反徵收十字軍十字軍，此前曾在二月份的確認之前施壓。

Warren overcame the challenge from pro-cryptocurrency opponent John Deaton to secure a third Senate term last year.

沃倫（Warren）克服了親克賴特幣對手約翰·迪頓（John Deaton）去年獲得第三名參議院任期的挑戰。
