Lindsay Fraser from Uniswap will serve as the Chief Policy Officer of the Blockchain Association in the United States.

PANews, December 5—According to CoinDesk, as the crypto industry pushes for the U.S. Congress to take prompt action on a bill that would establish a regulatory framework for the digital asset market, the Blockchain Association has hired Uniswap Labs’ Lindsay Fraser to lead its policy affairs. Fraser previously handled policy affairs for Uniswap at a time when the industry was struggling with how the U.S. government would address DeFi issues. Now, she will take on broader responsibilities for the association’s 146 member companies, though she stated that her DeFi experience will help drive relevant discussions.

In an interview, Fraser stated that the association is one of the leading industry advocacy organizations in Washington and will closely monitor the market structure bill currently being negotiated in the Senate, the implementation of the stablecoin bill established earlier this year, and the future direction of U.S. cryptocurrency tax policy.
