Crypto journalists say the midterm elections are unfavorable for crypto, with several pro-crypto lawmakers losing their seats

Crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett published an article summarizing the key results of the U.S. midterm elections, stating that the outcomes are generally unfavorable for the Republican Party and the crypto industry. She pointed out that despite over $64 million invested by the crypto industry, it was unable to prevent Sherrod Brown from returning to the Senate, where Brown may gain a leadership position on a committee with jurisdiction over crypto issues. Sherrod Brown previously served as the chairman of the Senate Banking Committee and holds significant influence over legislation and regulation of digital assets.Eleanor Terrett noted that Brown is cautious and even skeptical about crypto, emphasizing that consumer and investor protection should take priority. He advocates for enhanced information disclosure, segregation of customer assets, combating conflicts of interest, and anti-money laundering measures, opposing industry-led lax legislation. While he does not outright reject reforms on stablecoins and market structure, he insists that the regulatory framework must become stricter and not dilute the standards of traditional financial markets.Additionally, pro-crypto representatives Bryan Steil, Zach Nunn, and Ann Wagner were defeated, and Mike Lawler has conceded to Cait Conley, although the Associated Press has yet to make a final determination on New York's 17th congressional district. Kirsten Gillibrand, chair of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, helped the Democrats secure a Senate majority that exceeded expectations. After the Republican Party lost control of the Senate, Tim Scott is expected to transition from chairman of the Banking Committee to minority leader; the outcome in French Hill's district has not yet been determined, but it appears he may narrowly win and is expected to become minority leader, with the chairmanship taken over by Maxine Waters. Pete Ricketts won in Nebraska, and Andy Barr secured the vacant Senate seat in Kentucky, succeeding Mitch McConnell and potentially competing for a position on the Banking Committee.

first_img Toady Hawk: Appointed CEO of the token issuance platform Clanker, will promote the restart

Base Security Committee member Toady Hawk announced on November 3rd via X that he has accepted the position of CEO at the token issuance platform Clanker, responsible for driving the platform's restart. He stated that Clanker is now managed by Mask Network, which is also the manager of Firefly and Lens Protocol, and has collaborated with the engineering team to promote the restart, with more arrangements to be announced later.Toady Hawk recalled that Clanker was born about two years ago on Farcaster, where users could post on the timeline and tag the platform to issue tokens. The platform later expanded to X and once became the highest trading volume token issuance platform on Base, with related communities including BNKR, DRB, and FAIR. He mentioned that the platform subsequently experienced changes due to early founder controversies, being sold to Farcaster, and the handover to Neynar, which affected it multiple times over the past 18 months. He also stated that he has been working independently since he was 17 and prefers to manage projects he personally founded, but has accepted this position.His listed priorities after taking office include: updating the brand while retaining its original features, improving external communication, and collaborating with the engineering team to align functionalities with current mainstream issuance platforms, covering stock trading pairs, new chain support, and an unnamed first-day support feature. Other matters include rebuilding trust between builders and the trading community, supporting early communities still under construction, and bringing new issuance activities back to the information flow. He also stated that he will assist in planning projects for issuing meme tokens, stock trading pairs, or application tokens, and collaborate with developers who wish to continue building based on the Clanker protocol. The official Clanker account responded on the same day, stating that the restart is in progress.

The legal team of Sun Yuchen filed a sanctions application against WLFI, stating that it only disclosed the shareholder's UAE citizenship months after the lawsuit

Sun Yuchen posted on platform X that his lawyer has applied for sanctions against World Liberty Financial (WLFI) because the company disclosed the UAE citizenship of its shareholders months after he filed the lawsuit.Sun Yuchen stated that he signed a token purchase agreement to buy $30 million of WLFI in November 2024, later increasing the total investment to $45 million, and filed a lawsuit against WLFI in April this year, accusing it of fraudulently inducing investment and illegally freezing his tokens. According to his token purchase agreement, the case can be filed in federal or state court in California, and he chose federal court.Sun Yuchen claimed that the disclosure documents submitted by WLFI at the beginning of the case only listed one entity of WLFI, registered in Florida, and then filed a motion for mandatory arbitration; during the August hearing, the court hinted that it did not recognize the arbitration claim and ruled that some demands would remain for public trial. Less than a week later, WLFI suddenly "corrected" the disclosure documents, increasing the number of members in the ownership chain from 1 to 22, and claimed to have citizenship in Florida, Delaware, Puerto Rico, and the UAE, thereby arguing that the federal court has no jurisdiction because both parties have foreign entities.Sun Yuchen pointed out that WLFI claims it "is not an offshore organization," is "a company that pays taxes in the United States," and "when selling tokens, it poses as a U.S. company, only to discover its UAE identity when trying to escape the U.S. federal court." He stated that after the sanctions motion is ruled on in federal court, he will refile the lawsuit in California state court.
