Senator Elizabeth Warren, known as a prominent opponent of cryptocurrency, appears poised to pose questions related to cryptocurrency at the confirmation hearing of Scott Besant, nominated as the Treasury Secretary for Donald Trump's second administration.
On the 14th (local time), Eleanor Terrett, a Fox Business reporter, stated on her X (formerly Twitter) that "Senator Warren has sent a letter containing cryptocurrency-related questions to Scott Besant, the Treasury Secretary nominee, for his confirmation hearing.
