Janet Yellen was just unanimously approved by The U.S. Senate Finance Committee for Treasury secretary. She’s taking over from Mnuchin, and is so far not off to a good start regarding cryptocurrency.

Earlier this week she said that cryptocurrencies are “a particular concern” when it comes to criminal activity and terrorist financing.

“I think many [cryptocurrencies] are used, at least in a transaction sense, mainly for illicit financing."

Forbes contributor Hailey Lennon noted in a recent article that Yellen is just plain incorrect. The money laundering tool of choice is still the good old US Treasury.
