Renowned crypto lending platform BlockFi<\/a> has hired lobbyists from Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer LLP to work on regulatory and tax policy for financial service providers in digital assets, Reuters reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n

BlockFi has created a five-person policy team with Arnold & Porter. The team features Arnold & Porter Partner Mark Epley and Kevin O\u2019Neill, the Legislative and Public Policy Practice Group Chair at the law and lobbying firm.<\/p>\n

By acquiring the services of Arnold & Porter, BlockFi has become the latest crypto firm to hire lobbyists.<\/p>\n

According to Epley, Arnold & Porter would help serve as BlockFi\u2019s alter ego, helping the company discuss industry interests with lawmakers.<\/p>\n

He pointed out that policymakers are not interested in hearing from individual players in the market, but lobbyists can help in such talks. Epley disclosed that although Arnold & Porter has other clients interested in crypto, it is currently not lobbying for any other company.<\/p>\n

Increasing efforts to get on the same page with lawmakers<\/h2>\n

A BlockFi spokesperson said:<\/p>\n

BlockFi believes that key to the success of the industry is appropriate regulation.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The spokesperson added that the company is eager to work with policymakers to help define the regulatory and tax environment for digital assets.<\/p>\n

This news comes after BlockFi agreed to pay $100 million to the U.S Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) and 32 states after failing to register its lending product. This fine set the record as the highest penalty<\/a> a crypto firm has ever paid. The SEC took $50 million of the $100 million.<\/p>\n

Apart from BlockFi, multiple crypto companies are involved in lobbying. These include Coinbase, Ripple Labs, Blockchain Association, Stellar Development, Chamber of Digital Commerce, Coincenter, and Coinflip, to mention a few.<\/p>\n

In 2021, crypto companies spent<\/a> a whopping $9 million in lobbying activities. Coinbase, Ripple Labs, and Blockchain Association were the top donors, with Coinbase spending $1.5 million. Ripple Labs came next, spending $1.1 million. On the other hand, Blockchain Associated parted with $900,000.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
