Digital Currency Group files for its
first in-house lobbying
registration
The Digital Currency Group, one of the blockchain ecosystem's most dominant venture
capital firms, is looking to get into lobbying, according to a recent lobbying
registration form submitted to the House of Representatives and Senate.
According to the registration, Julie Stitzel, the firm's VP of public policy, has registered
to lobby on behalf of DCG in what will be the firm's first direct involvement in the field of
lobbying.
This is a major development for the crypto landscape as a whole, as the DCG is one of
the biggest players in the game with investments in some of the most prominent outfits
in crypto, including Coinbase, Grayscale Asset Management and Circle.
The new filling highlighted DCG's mission to "Support bitcoin & blockchain companies
by leveraging insights, network & access to capital." Plans for how much DCG intends
to spend on its lobbying efforts were not included in the registration, but the firm will
likely address that in its disclosures for the next quarter.
Crypto lobbying is on the rise

of growth. According to the Washington D.C.-based legislative news website Roll Call,
"Spending by the cryptocurrency lobby hit a record high last quarter, as members of
Congress from both parties and chambers proved willing to engage with the industry's
top priorities."
