The Chamber of Digital Commerce has announced the addition of Visa, Goldman Sachs, and Six Digital Exchange (SDX) to its executive committee.
It has been reported that Mick Mulvaney, the former White House Chief of Staff and a co-founder of the Congressional Blockchain Caucus, will also be joining the chamber’s board of advisors.
However, Mulvaney left the White House in March. On the board, he will be joining a number of figures familiar to Cointelegraph’s readers, including Don Tapscott of the Blockchain Research Institute and former CFTC Chairman Chris Giancarlo, who is now with the Digital Dollar Project.

Perianne Boring, the President and Founder at Chamber of Digital Commerce, said:
“It’s important that when we have diverse views, because when you’re working on public policy, your work impacts everybody. It impacts the entire ecosystem. So you need to make sure you really understand the full scope of an industry and how potential policy could impact everybody.”
Likewise, Cuy Sheffield, Visa’s head of crypto, said:
“Visa continuously explores new payment innovations like digital currencies and how they might be able to connect to or expand our existing network and products.”
Thus, Boring concluded:
“People are starting to understand the importance of blockchain technology in the global economy.”
