    Elon Musk helped write the law governing his own payment app, dismantled the regulator that would police it, and is now launching a stablecoin. Senator Warren has some questions.

    Elon Musk influenced the creation of the GENIUS Act, which allows private companies like X to issue stablecoins without standard regulatory safeguards.

Senator Elizabeth Warren has demanded answers over potential conflicts of interest.
