COINOTAG News, September 17 — Per Decrypt, U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren has opened an inquiry into whether Donald Trump’s AI and cryptocurrency advisor David Sacks complied with applicable federal ethics requirements, seeking to clarify adherence to disclosure and recusal standards for transition advisers.
Warren has requested documentation from the U.S. General Services Administration and the Trump transition team, including complete financial disclosure statements and investment records to assess any potential conflict of interest arising from private holdings that could intersect with policy advice during the transition period.
Sacks, who serves as a partner at Craft Ventures, occupies a dual private‑public role that has drawn oversight attention; the inquiry focuses on governance, transparency and conformity with federal ethics rules rather than presuming misconduct.
