It’s unclear whether Keisha Lance Bottoms will advise the campaign on crypto, but she spoke about digital assets in Atlanta the day before the presidential debate.
Keisha Lance Bottoms, the former mayor of Atlanta and a member of cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase’s global advisory council, will join President Joe Biden’s campaign for the 2024 United States Presidential election.
According to a June 26 report from Ebony, Lance Bottoms said she would be joining the Biden campaign as a senior adviser. She served as the mayor of Atlanta from 2018 to 2022 and joined the Coinbase advisory council in April 2024, having left an advisory position at the White House in 2023.
The Hill reported on June 27 that Lance Bottoms would remain with Coinbase through President Biden’s campaign, which is expected to end in November when U.S. voters go to the ballot boxes. The news outlet reported that the former mayor said cryptocurrency was a “nonpolitical and unifying issue.”
