Under the dusty, sun-scorched landscape of the cryptocurrency world, a figure emerged, only to vanish into the horizon of a new dawn. Kristin Smith, the stalwart CEO of the US-based Blockchain Association, is bidin’ adieu to her throne, leavin’ the folks at BA in a whirlwind of wonder. Her destination? The freshly minted Solana Policy Institute, where she’ll don the hat of President, come May 19.
April 1, a day when fools are made, turned out to be no joke for the Blockchain Association (BA), as they announced Smith’s departure, effective May 16. The notice, as bare as a California oak in winter, offered no reasons for her exodus, nor a hint of who’d be the new sheriff in town. CryptoMoon, with all the curiosity of a hungry rabbit, reached out to BA for a whisper of insight but was met with the silence of a deserted canyon… at the time of publication, at least.
Smith, a veteran of the BA trenches since 2018, with a past as colorful as a Montana sunset (having served as deputy chief of staff for the former Representative Denny Rehberg), is not the first to make this peculiar pilgrimage. She follows in the footsteps of Miller Whitehouse-Levine, the erstwhile CEO of DeFi Education Fund, who traded in his CEO badge for a spot at the Solana Policy Institute. Whitehouse-Levine, with the zeal of a preacher, vows to enlighten US policymakers on the gospel of Solana. 🙏
This here’s a story still unfoldin’, like a tumbleweed in the wind. Stay tuned, partners, for more updates as they mosey on in.
