US President Donald Trump is set to host a White House Crypto Summit where industry executives will discuss the future of digital assets in the country. However, there are concerns about the lack of explicit representation for Ethereum at the event. Despite this, notable figures from the crypto industry, including the CEOs of MicroStrategy, Bitcoin Magazine, Paradigm, Exodus, Multicoin Capital, and more, have confirmed their attendance. The summit, expected to have 20-25 attendees, aims to align crypto policy with regulatory considerations. Topics of discussion may include the impact of digital assets on financial markets, regulatory frameworks, and the economy, as well as recent policy developments and tax incentives for crypto transactions. While there are representatives from firms building on Ethereum, critics argue that a direct Ethereum leader should be present. Ethereum Foundation researcher Danny Ryan has been suggested as a potential representative, but his attendance is unconfirmed. Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin is not on the confirmed attendee list, and speculation suggests his background may be a factor. Ethereum's price has risen over 4% in the past 24 hours.
