Coinbase Advisor Joins Joe Biden's Campaign Team in US Presidential Election

Todaysgist.com, Jakarta – Keisha Lance Bottoms, former mayor of Atlanta and member of the global advisory board of cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase, will reportedly join incumbent Joe Biden's campaign for the 2024 United States Presidential election.

For information, Keisha Lance Bottoms served as mayor of Atlanta from 2018 to 2022 and joined Coinbase's advisory board in April 2024, after leaving her advisory position at the White House in 2023.

Quoted from Cointelegraph, Saturday (29/6/2024) a report on June 26 from Ebony revealed that Keisha Lance Bottoms would join the Biden campaign as a senior advisor.

The Hill also reported that Keisha is staying with Coinbase through Biden’s campaign, which is expected to end in November when U.S. voters go to the ballot box. The outlet reported that the former Atlanta mayor said crypto is a “non-political and unifying issue.”

However, it remains unclear whether Keisha will advise the Biden campaign on cryptocurrency-related issues.

But recent reports suggest the US President is considering accepting crypto contributions from supporters and meeting with lawmakers to discuss digital assets.

On June 26, Keisha spoke at one of Coinbase’s Stand With Crypto events in Atlanta ahead of the debate between President Biden and Donald Trump.

“Atlanta has a thriving black-owned blockchain community,” he said at the Stand With Crypto Atlanta event.

“Crypto offers an opportunity for often unbanked communities to strengthen their financial freedom,” he said.
