Excited that Chainlink CEO Sergey Nazarov has been chosen to be on the Advisory Board of the The Digital Chamber. We look forward to the continued work to advance sound public policy for the digital assets and blockchain space in Washington, DC.

Major speech by U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman today at America First Policy Institute. Lots to unpack and a big thank you to Eleanor Terrett for providing a quick summary of the major points.
