Trump will personally attend Wednesday's White House crypto summit, joined by the heads of both the SEC and CFTC. Executives from Coinbase, Ripple, a16z, Chainlink, Paradigm, and Kalshi are expected, with the CFTC also hosting Coinbase, Robinhood, Kalshi, and Polymarket CEOs at its first Innovation Committee meeting Thursday. The meeting comes during a less-than-likely chance of CLARITY passing.
