Official Invitations Sent, Coinbase CEO Confirmed

The White House is preparing for its inaugural Crypto Summit on March 7, a pivotal event that will bring together some of the biggest names in the cryptocurrency industry and government. President Donald Trump is set to headline the event. The summit, which will run from 1:30 PM to 5:30 PM, will be a roundtable discussion featuring key figures like CEOs, investors, and members of the Presidential Working Group on Digital Assets (PWG).

According to Fox Business’ Eleanor Terrett, the guest list will be smaller than initially expected, with approximately 20-25 attendees. Among the confirmed participants are industry leaders such as MicroStrategy CEO Michael Saylor, Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev, and Kraken CEO Arjun Sethi. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong is also expected to attend. The group will engage in conversations with policymakers, including PWG members like Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, Attorney General Pam Bondi, SEC Chair, and CFTC Chair.

The Crypto Summit aims to foster collaboration between the government and the digital assets industry to discuss and shape future policies. This meeting will serve as the first of a series of events designed to replace the previously proposed “crypto advisory council.”

Although official invitations were just sent out recently, the event is already generating significant interest. For those not included in the roundtable, a larger, invite-only reception will be held across the street from the White House, allowing the wider crypto community to participate in the discussions.

The gathering has sparked intrigue, especially given the involvement of prominent figures in both the government and the crypto industry. While the exact details are still being finalized, it is clear that the White House is aiming to play a major role in shaping the future of digital assets in the United States.
