Executives from a wide range of crypto companies, including Coinbase, Chainlink and Exodus, represent the Friday industry at the first White House summit of the US president.
COO of Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong, chainlink labs co-founder Sergey Nazarov, Exodo CEO JP Richardson and strategy chairman Michael Saylor confirmed their attendance of the event, which will also feature “big donor,” according to two people who did not call.
Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev introduced he would attend the summit, posting a screen extraction from the National Treasure movie on X (formerly Twitter) and captioning it “See you soon, DC.”
Trump himself – who said he was going to have a summit – David’s sacks – Trump and Ai Czar’s crypto – and Bo Hines, the executive director of the president’s working group in digital assets – represents the White House.
It is unclear how many crypto executives will attend or what the event agenda may include.
Recently closed by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Review of Robinhood Crypto and lowered the implementation suit against the Coinbase. Both companies made seven-figure donations to President Donald Trump’s inaugural committee-Coinbase contributed $ 1 million, and Robinhood contributed $ 2 million. Other crypto companies thought to be represented at the Crypto Summit, along with Ripple and Circle, also made large donations.
A Ripple spokesperson identified CoinDesk in the White House when asked if any executive executive would attend Friday of the Summit. Representatives for the Circle did not return a request for comment.
