The Blockchain Foundation is organizing the September 13 Washington event; an August 30 Reuters article said ticket prices go from $500 to $5,000.<\/p>\n<p>This behavior indicates the industry&#8217;s inclination for Harris over her rival, Donald Trump, even if Harris keeps quite quiet on her view on cryptocurrency. Based on September 1 data from FiveThirtyEight, Harris has a 3.2% margin over Trump in national surveys, a margin she has maintained since stating her Democratic presidential candidacy from President Joe Biden.<\/p>\n<p>Said Cleve Mesidor, executive director of the Blockchain Foundation, the event seeks to &#8220;make a statement about what crypto is for Democrats as a possibly new administration.&#8221; She also hoped it would start conversations on how a Harris government can help companies and provide minorities greater financing access.<\/p>\n<p>Under President Biden, <strong>the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)<\/strong> is tough, hence the organizers hope Harris will be more flexible with cryptocurrency. Alleging securities law breaches, the SEC has focused on big participants in the sector like Coinbase and Ripple.<\/p>\n<p>Reacting to the SEC&#8217;s activities, several industry titans have heavily engaged in political influence; companies like Coinbase and Ripple have given $120 million to super political action committees (PACs) like Fairshake, which has attacked the Democratic Party&#8217;s posture on cryptocurrencies.<\/p>\n<p>Leaders in the crypto field have already been involved in Harris&#8217;s campaign; industry meetings scheduled for July and August have already taken place. Brian Nelson, Harris&#8217;s top campaign manager, answered questions about her stance on cryptocurrency at the Democratic National Convention saying she would &#8220;support policies that ensure that emerging technologies and that sort of industry can continue to grow.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The next event coincides with initiatives by another firm, Crypto4 Harris, which last month staged a virtual town hall with Democratic Party legislators, thereby attesting to the industry&#8217;s growing support for Harris&#8217; presidential quest.<\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also freely share your thoughts and comments about the topic in the comment section.
