The Digital Chamber Urges Kamala Harris to Support Crypto and Change Perception

The Digital Chamber, a digital asset trade association, has sent a letter urging Vice President Kamala Harris to embrace the U.S. cryptocurrency industry and include pro-crypto language in the Democratic Party’s platform. This call for support comes after President Joe Biden announced his decision not to seek reelection.

In the letter, the Digital Chamber recommends that Harris engage in open dialogue with key crypto industry leaders and consider selecting a pro-crypto running mate to repair the Democratic Party’s relationship with digital asset holders and companies. The group expressed concerns about the negative perception of the party’s stance on digital assets, citing the Biden/Harris Administration’s cautious and sometimes hostile approach to these technologies.

Harris, who emerged as the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination following Biden’s withdrawal from the presidential race, has received endorsements from key Democratic figures, including Former President Bill Clinton, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and California Gov. Gavin Newsom.

While Biden has expressed his full support and endorsement of Harris, the timeline for her potential nomination as the Democratic candidate remains uncertain. Democrats may formally select their nominee during a virtual roll call in early August or wait until the Democratic National Convention scheduled for August 19 to August 22.

As Harris navigates her path towards a potential presidential candidacy, the Digital Chamber’s call for support of the crypto industry represents a push for greater recognition and acceptance of digital assets within the political landscape.

It remains to be seen how Harris will respond to these recommendations and whether she will adopt a more favorable stance towards cryptocurrencies as part of her campaign strategy.
