TechFlow reported on January 14 that, according to CoinDesk, U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren sent a letter to Comptroller of the Currency Jonathan Gould urging him to pause World Liberty Trust Co.'s application for a banking charter until President Donald Trump divests his family's ownership stake in related digital asset businesses. Warren highlighted that if the application is approved, Gould would be setting rules affecting the profitability of a company owned by the president, creating an unprecedented financial conflict of interest. As the top Democrat on the Senate Banking Committee, Warren raised this request ahead of the panel's planned discussion on cryptocurrency legislation scheduled for Thursday.
