Chamber of Progress Urges Addition of Cryptocurrency Regulation Questions to Presidential Debate

WASHINGTON, Sept. 29, 2023 - The Chamber of Progress, a US tech policy group that includes Google, Amazon, Meta, and Apple as members, is calling for the inclusion of questions on cryptocurrency regulation in the upcoming presidential debate on Oct. 10. In a letter to the debate moderators, the group emphasized the need for candidates to clearly articulate their stances on the industry and the role they envision for cryptocurrencies in the economy. "With over 18 million Americans currently owning or trading cryptocurrencies, it is crucial that candidates make their views on the industry transparent, allowing voters to make informed decisions before casting their ballots in November," the group stated. The Chamber of Progress believes that addressing cryptocurrency regulation in the presidential debate will empower voters with the necessary information to evaluate candidates' positions on this rapidly growing sector. By doing so, the debate can contribute to a more informed discourse on the future of cryptocurrency regulation in the United States.
