Vinay Gupta, a technical expert who helped coordinate the release of Ethereum, is seeking to promote sensible cryptocurrency policies to President-elect Donald Trump's transition team. In addition, inspired by Trump's overwhelming victory on election day, Gupta is considering relocating himself and his team at the UK blockchain company Mattereum to the United States. He added, "We plan to quickly move personnel (including myself) to Washington, DC to help with the transformation of cryptocurrency in the United States." Gupta said that part of his plan includes replicating some policies he helped develop in the UK, including a recent parliamentary bill that attempts to formally define cryptocurrency assets as property, and successfully pushing the country to recognize smart contracts as "actual contracts."
