Elizabeth Warren Says Billionaires Like Jeff Bezos And Elon Musk Will ‘Track Your Purchases’ If Allowed To Launch Stablecoins, And Stick You With The Bill When It ‘Blows Up’
Posted On June 17, 2025
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) took potshots at billionaires Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos on Monday, warning that stablecoin legislation would enable them to “exploit” user data and engage in unfair trade practices.
What happened: In an X post, Warren argued that the GENIUS Act, also known as the stablecoin bill, has a “major loophole” that allows Big Tech and major retailers to issue their own stablecoins, which, according to her, could lead to significant risks for consumers and the economy.
“If Congress doesn’t fix the GENIUS Act, billionaires like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos could launch stablecoins that track your purchases, exploit your data, and squeeze out competitors,” Warren alleged.
