Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong is set to meet with President-elect Donald Trump to discuss staffing decisions in critical positions that may influence the cryptocurrency policy in the United States. Although Armstrong has not supported Trump financially, he has stated that Coinbase would be ready to work with a Trump administration.
The meeting comes as Trump continues to fill key positions in his incoming cabinet and administration, with speculation that he may establish a “Bitcoin and crypto presidential advisory council” within his first 100 days in office. This council aims to develop regulatory clarity for the digital asset industry.
