\u201cOur expanding coalition shows that Congress is ready to take action \u2013 our bipartisan bill is the toughest proposal on the table cracking down on crypto\u2019s illicit use and giving regulators more tools in their toolbox.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Warren reintroduced the Digital Asset Anti-Money Laundering Act, along with Senators Joe Manchin, Roger Marshall and Lindsey Graham, in July 2023. In the current version, the document intends to crack down on noncustodial digital wallets, extend Bank Secrecy Act responsibilities, establish an Anti-Money Laundering\/Combating the Financing of Terrorism compliance examination and other legal measures to fight the illicit use of digital money. <\/p>\n
Warren believes there is a \u201c$50 billion crypto tax gap,\u201d\u00a0with the\u00a0Internal Revenue Service and U.S. Treasury risking missing out on roughly $1.5 billion in tax revenue for the 2024 financial year if a tax policy update is delayed.<\/p>\n
