Members of the United States Congress and an adviser to President Joe Biden, acting in her personal capacity, joined a roundtable event with crypto industry heads.
On July 10, Representative Ro Khanna, Representative Joe Neguse, Senator Kristin Gillibrand, and Anita Dunn discussed digital assets with industry advocates, including Crypto Council for Innovation CEO Sheila Warren, Blockchain Association CEO Kristin Smith, Coinbase chief legal officer Paul Grewal, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse, Stellar Development Foundation CEO Denelle Dixon, and entrepreneur Mark Cuban. Warren described the roundtable as a “productive step forward” in approaching crypto as a nonpartisan issue, while Dixon echoed her sentiment.
“It’s clear that these leaders understand that leadership from the United States on blockchain technology and digital assets is critical to ensure this industry and this technology is allowed to flourish,” said Dixon.
