The post Top Crypto CEOs to Meet U.S. Senators on Oct 22 For Roundtable, Full List Revealed appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

In a major step toward bridging the gap between Washington and the crypto industry, U.S. Senate Democrats are hosting a high-level roundtable meeting on 22nd October with top crypto leaders. 

Executives from Coinbase, Ripple, Chainlink, Uniswap, and Galaxy Digital will join lawmakers to rebuild trust and restart long-stalled talks on digital asset regulation after months of tension and political deadlock.

Who’s at the Roundtable Table?

According to journalist Eleanor Terrett, among those confirmed to attend are Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong, Ripple Chief Legal Officer Stuart Alderoty, Chainlink’s Sergey Nazarov, Galaxy’s Mike Novogratz, Kraken’s David Ripley, Uniswap’s Hayden Adams, and Circle’s Dante Disparte.

The group will be joined by policy representatives from a16z Crypto, the Solana Policy Institute, and the Blockchain Association.

Each of these companies represents a unique corner of the ecosystem, from exchanges and stablecoins to DeFi and infrastructure, giving Sen. Gillibrand, co-sponsor of the Responsible Financial Innovation Act (RFIA), a rare opportunity to hear a diverse range of perspectives in one room.

What Will Be the Discussion Focus Around?

The session will explore several hot-button issues, including:

  • Market Structure Clarity: Defining how the SEC and CFTC split jurisdiction over crypto assets.
  • DeFi Oversight: Building frameworks that balance innovation with accountability.
  • Stablecoin Policy: Seeking consensus on federal standards for payment-stable assets and reserves.
  • Taxation and Treasury Coordination: Addressing compliance gaps in corporate holdings and tokenized assets.

Lawmakers are under pressure to deliver results before the end of the 2025 legislative session.

Critical Conversation Amid Political Gridlock

This roundtable comes at a sensitive time. Negotiations between Democrats and Republicans on crypto market structure legislation have reportedly stalled, following public backlash over a leaked Democratic proposal to regulate decentralized finance (DeFi). 

While the industry views the roundtable as a constructive step, expectations remain tempered.
