Kamala Harris Gains⁢ Support from Key Tech Industry Figures

As the US ⁤presidential race gains momentum, Democratic candidate Vice President Kamala Harris is garnering significant support from prominent figures in the tech industry,‌ particularly in the cryptocurrency sector.

A recent letter signed by 88 US corporate ‍representatives, including ‌Chris Larsen,‌ co-founder of XRP issuer Ripple, has expressed support ⁣for⁣ Harris’s presidential bid. The letter emphasizes, ⁤”We support Harris’s election as US president. We are confident that ⁢Harris will ‌be a president who can achieve the growth of American​ companies.”

Notable business leaders who⁤ have signed the⁣ petition include 21st Century Fox CEO James Murdoch and Snapchat founder Michael Lynton. Larsen’s endorsement‌ is particularly noteworthy, as he is the first major figure in the cryptocurrency space to publicly support Harris.

Larsen’s support ⁤is significant, given the Harris administration’s unclear stance on the digital economy. Meanwhile, Ripple’s other co-founder and⁢ CEO, ⁤Brad‍ Garlinghouse, has ⁤not⁣ endorsed any particular candidate. Instead, he is focused on ⁤supporting candidates ⁣who advocate for regulatory clarity​ for cryptocurrencies.

Garlinghouse​ has urged crypto industry​ leaders to support candidates who prioritize regulatory clarity, highlighting the importance ​of‍ a clear and supportive regulatory environment for the growth ⁤of the digital economy.
