According to ChainCatcher news, informed sources revealed that President-elect Trump will meet with the CEO of the cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase on Monday. It is reported that the two will discuss personnel issues for the next government.
The meeting between Trump and Brian Armstrong will be their first since election day. Trump is still continuing to appoint cabinet members and other senior positions. Earlier this year at the annual Bitcoin conference, Trump stated that if he wins the presidential election, he will appoint a presidential advisory council on Bitcoin and cryptocurrency to design transparent regulatory guidance. Since Trump's victory, Armstrong has publicly discussed who should be the next leader of the SEC.
Armstrong stated that he believes Trump's SEC commissioner Hester Peirce is the 'best candidate.'
