According to Hong Kong media, the Trump team is reviewing candidates for positions specifically responsible for cryptocurrency policy. Although it is still unclear whether the position belongs to the level of senior White House staff, namely "cryptocurrency arbitrator" (responsible for leading policies and regulations within the federal government), people in the cryptocurrency industry are striving for this opportunity to directly contact Trump.
It is reported that many people have gone to Mar-a-Lago for "interviews" recently, including Brooks, a former executive of the cryptocurrency trading platform Binance, who is also considered a potential candidate for the chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, Armstrong, CEO of the U.S. cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase, also met with Trump this week. (Ta Kung Pao)
