The Democratic presidential candidate has been largely silent on digital assets since launching her campaign on July 21.
An aide to Kamala Harris has reportedly said the Democratic presidential nominee will support policies favoring the digital asset industry if she wins the November election.
According to an Aug. 21 Bloomberg report, Harris senior campaign adviser Brian Nelson said the Democratic candidate would “support policies that ensure that emerging technologies and that sort of industry can continue to grow” in response to questions on engaging the crypto community. Nelson added that the industry needed “rules of the road” following the collapse of some firms, hinting at the cryptocurrency exchange FTX.
The comments from the Harris aide came during a roundtable event at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. At the event, the Vice President will officially accept her party’s nomination for president in 2024 after Joe Biden’s departure.
