<p>Over 30 influential people, such as Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, <a href="https://ripple.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">Ripple</a> CEO Brad Garlinghouse, Anthony Scaramucci, and Mike Novogratz (former hedge fund manager), were present at the invite-only meeting. Officials from key cryptocurrency firms and trade associations were also in attendance, underscoring widespread industry concerns.</p> 
<p>Anita Dunn, a senior advisor to President Biden, attended the conference but appeared unprepared for the industry’s harsh criticism. Many in attendance felt the SEC had <a href="https://cryptonewsland.com/crypto-in-peril-u-s-house-expected/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">overstepped its boundaries</a> by intervening in matters that directly affected competition and creativity.</p> 
<p>Amid Biden’s regulatory stance, Donald Trump has garnered support from the crypto community, with significant contributions from figures like the Winklevoss twins. Their <a href="https://cryptonewsland.com/gemini-twins-back-trump-with-2m-donation-blast-bidens-crypto-stance/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">$1.7 million contribution</a> to Trump’s campaign underscores the political stakes of crypto regulation. Trump has positioned himself as a champion of the industry, promising to “end Biden’s war on crypto” and adopt a more favorable regulatory approach.</p> 
<p>Mark Cuban described the meeting as advantageous to both the government and crypto industry. Cuban stated that the right people from the Senate, House, and White House were present. He expressed optimism about potential changes in how the Biden administration and Democrats support crypto.</p> 
<p>The heated meeting underscored the <a href="https://cryptonewsland.com/bidens-veto-on-sec-crypto-rule/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">growing tension</a> between the crypto industry and the Biden administration. Industry leaders clearly conveyed their frustrations, but it remains to be seen whether this will lead to any policy shifts.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>With the election approaching, the administration’s stance on crypto regulation could significantly impact voter support. The responsibility for addressing these issues and possibly changing their regulatory strategy to keep the crypto sector’s backing now lies with the White House.</p>
