The US Senate Banking Committee Republicans have announced the lineup of witnesses for a crypto-focused debanking hearing scheduled for February 5. The witnesses include Nathan McCauley, CEO of Anchorage Digital, Evan Hafer, Founder and Executive Chairman of Black Rifle Coffee, and Stephen Gannon, Partner at DWT Law. The hearing aims to address allegations that financial regulators have pressured banks to cut off accounts tied to certain individuals, businesses, and political movements. The House Oversight Committee is also launching its own investigation into political bias in the banking sector. Banks such as Bank of America and JPMorgan Chase deny any political bias in their decision-making. The crypto community has long criticized traditional banks for being hostile to the industry.
