The Chamber of Digital Commerce (CDC) has named bitcoin entrepreneur and banking family scion Matthew Mellon as its new executive committee chairman.
Mellon has long been involved in the bitcoin industry, having helped found ventures like Coin Validation that focus on compliance solutions for businesses using bitcoin. A former finance committee chairman for the New York State Republican Party, Mellon comes from an American family known for its deep ties in both US banking and politics.
Mellon will focus on growing the level of bank involvement in the bitcoin industry, as well as supporting initiatives that enable conversations between the bitcoin space, members of Congress and financial industry leaders, according to the Washington, D.C.-based bitcoin advocacy group.
