The crypto community has wrapped up the Bitcoin 2024 Conference and is now headed for another conference: the Permissionless III Conference, to be held on October 9-11, 2024. However, there is conflict about inviting presidential candidates to the conference and what their role is supposed to be.
Gary Gensler continues to be a problem for crypto execs and traders
According to an announcement by Blockworks, the Permissionless III conference intends to bring together some of the biggest names in the crypto industry. The event will take place in Salt Lake City, Utah.
The hosts intend to provide visitors the opportunity to interact with nature while also hearing from industry leaders such as Balaji S. Srinivasan, Luca Netz, Li Jin, Nick White, and Travis Kling.
The conference will explore the latest crypto trends, focusing on seven major areas: modularity, restacking, gaming, Bitcoin, AI and crypto, NFTs, and layer-2 solutions.
Jason Yanowitz, Co-Founder of Blockworks, has today called on crypto traders, investors and developers on X to help “drive crypto forward in the United States.” He adds that:
Regardless of your politics, being openly hostile to one of two major political parties in the US is not in service of that goal. At Permissionless, we will bring together industry executives, investors, founders, developers, regulators, builders, and politicians. This includes both well-intentioned Republicans and Democrats who want to thoughtfully engage.

However, others do not share that vision. Ryan Selkis, founder and CEO of crypto data platform Messari, has told Jason Yanowitz, “If Kamala Harris goes to Permissionless before Gary Gensler is fired, everyone should boycott Blockworks and accept that risk. […] Don’t cross the picket line if Gary is still employed.”
