President Donald Trump speaks at the White House Digital Assets Summit on Friday.
Just over six weeks into his second White House term, Trump is hosting his first Crypto Summit, a nod to an industry that played a major role in his election victory in November. No executive was more central to that effort than Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong.
“My goal in attending this is really just, first of all, to thank President Trump for helping make the United States the crypto capital of the world,” Armstrong told CNBC ahead of the meeting. “I think he’s lived up to that campaign promise so far, and we’ve seen a lot of work getting done here in a positive way.”
