President-elect Donald Trump is set to meet with Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong to discuss personnel appointments for his upcoming administration. Armstrong, who has been increasingly involved in political matters in recent years, has previously donated $49 million to crypto-focused PAC Fairshake. Trump plans to establish a Bitcoin and crypto presidential advisory council within 100 days if elected, and Armstrong publicly supported Hester Peirce as a potential SEC chair.
Coinbase has already pledged $25 million for 2026 pro-crypto candidates, making it clear that the company is committed to shaping cryptocurrency policy through political channels.
