The scheduled meeting between crypto industry executives and Vice President Kamala Harris, set for this Monday, has been postponed to later in the week. Although a new date has not been announced, the meeting was intended to improve relations between Harris’s administration and the blockchain world.

Among the participants in the meeting are Brad Garlinghouse and Chris Larsen, CEO and co-founder of Ripple (XRP), respectively. Both have been highly critical of the regulatory stance taken by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under Gary Gensler’s leadership. The SEC’s lawsuit against Ripple, which started during the Trump administration and continued under Biden, has been a major point of friction between the crypto community and regulators.

Bloomberg had revealed that crypto industry executives would meet with White House aides and Representative Ro Khanna this week. The goal of these discussions is to express their concerns and positions regarding digital assets and propose changes to current policies. Expected attendees at the roundtable include Anita Dunn. Senior White House adviser who is about to leave her position. National Economic Adviser Lael Brainard; and Bruce Reed, Deputy Chief of Staff.
