TechFlow news — On September 23, Coinbase policy lead Faryar Shirzad commented on social media that Vice President Kamala Harris’s recent statement on cryptocurrency is significant and constructive. Shirzad noted that while Harris’s position may not be as detailed or visionary as Trump’s, it still warrants attention for the following reasons:
- Harris placed digital asset innovation on par with artificial intelligence, recognizing its importance.
- She acknowledges a path forward that both fosters innovation and protects consumers and investors.
- Prior to the statement, Harris’s inner circle engaged in weeks of discussions with industry players, reflecting thoughtful consideration and an open attitude toward cryptocurrency.
Shirzad emphasized that signals from the White House matter greatly in Washington. He believes Harris’s deliberate mention of cryptocurrency sends a clear message: the Biden-Warren era of policies that damaged U.S. innovation may now be coming to an end. While the industry should continue pushing for stronger support, Harris’s statement is nonetheless significant and deserves recognition.
