Pro-crypto US Senator Cynthia Lummis recently announced on X her commitment to uncovering the truth behind allegations against the US Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) related to Operation Chokepoint 2.0.

Allegations Against FDIC

A group of whistleblowers named 'FDIC Exposed' accused the FDIC of targeting crypto firms for years. The report states that the agency pressures banks to stop servicing firms like Coinbase and Custodia Bank. Outgoing FDIC Chairman Martin Gruenberg is alleged to be the mastermind behind this secret operation aimed at stunting the growth of the crypto industry. The report includes audio recordings discussing data manipulation and information suppression.

The findings are nothing short of astonishing.

Senator Lummis' Response

Senator Cynthia Lummis promised a thorough investigation of the allegations, stating that she and Tim Scott, the newly appointed head of the Senate Banking Committee, are determined to delve deeply into these serious claims.

Possible Implications

If confirmed, these revelations could severely damage FDIC's reputation and lead to regulatory changes in the cryptocurrency realm. Allegations of corruption and information obstruction could also impact public perception of the agency.

The investigation into the FDIC may uncover critical aspects of interactions between government entities and the crypto sphere, potentially leading to significant changes in the banking sector.
