White House Crypto Summit Statement from Chainlink Co-Founder Sergey Nazarov:
“I just want to express my deep gratitude for the seriousness with which you’re approaching our industry and how you’re actually helping guide it in the right direction.
I’ve worked with many central banks in other countries, and when I was working there, I was wondering why, as an American citizen, I couldn’t help the United States financial system reach this higher level that the world is on course towards generally. And so, I’m very grateful that, finally, there’s been a new level of common sense and an adoption of these ideas.
Me and other people in the room do believe that the crypto, blockchain, Web3 infrastructure is the next iteration of the financial system. And I think that the U.S. should have its leadership position continue in that new financial system. I’m very, very happy to see people like David Sacks, Secretary Bessent, and Secretary Lutnick taking this very seriously with their time, and I’m very grateful to them too.
So, I’m just overjoyed to see this, and I think it is a big part of how the U.S. can continue its role in the global financial system. So, thank you very much.”
