US Congressman Ro Khanna to Host Digital Asset Roundtable Next Week

Congressman Ro Khanna (D-CA) will host a roundtable on digital asset (cryptocurrency) policy next Monday, according to The Block. The roundtable will bring together key players in the crypto industry and government to discuss the future of digital assets. Attendees will include representatives from crypto companies such as Coinbase, FTX, and Binance, as well as government officials including Lael Brainard, vice chair of the Federal Reserve, Deputy White House Counsel Bruce Reed and Anita Dunn, senior adviser to President Joe Biden. The roundtable is part of a broader effort by Khanna to promote the development of a regulatory framework for digital assets. Khanna has been a vocal advocate for cryptocurrencies, and he has introduced several bills to support the industry. The roundtable is expected to cover a range of topics, including the SEC's recent crackdown on cryptocurrencies, the need for clear regulatory guidance, and the potential of digital assets to transform the financial system.
