The newest kid on the crowded block of U.S. crypto advocacy groups, the American Innovation Project, will soon have its first executive director, with the arrival of Allie Page, who was chief operating officer at the Blockchain Association — one of the industry's leading lobbying organizations.

Page's departure next month follows the Blockchain Association exit of CEO Kristin Smith, who became president of the Solana Policy Institute (SPI) in May and is also president of the board at AIP.

"Allie has the rare ability to build connections with stakeholders from across the political spectrum, and is someone our industry can count on to move the needle on the issues that will shape the future of U.S. innovation," Smith said in a statement.

The nonprofit AIP will focus on hosting events to educate policymakers, not lobbying, and it muscles into an advocacy field already packed with organizations such as BA, SPI, the Digital Chamber, Crypto Council for Innovation, DeFi Education Fund, Solana Policy Institute, Coin Center and the National Cryptocurrency Association. Page said the group will help "ensure America's leaders have the foundational knowledge they need to craft smart, balanced policies that promote innovation and ensure America leads the next generation of technology," and it intends to hold a summit next year in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.

Before crypto, Page's previous experience had more of an agricultural focus, with stints at the National Cattlemen's Beef Association and Public Lands Council.

Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC

The post Franklin Templeton CEO Dismisses 50bps Rate Cut Ahead FOMC appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Franklin Templeton CEO Jenny Johnson has weighed in on whether the Federal Reserve should make a 25 basis points (bps) Fed rate cut or 50 bps cut. This comes ahead of the Fed decision today at today’s FOMC meeting, with the market pricing in a 25 bps cut. Bitcoin and the broader crypto market are currently trading flat ahead of the rate cut decision. Franklin Templeton CEO Weighs In On Potential FOMC Decision In a CNBC interview, Jenny Johnson said that she expects the Fed to make a 25 bps cut today instead of a 50 bps cut. She acknowledged the jobs data, which suggested that the labor market is weakening.

She alluded to the wage growth, which she remarked is an indication of a robust labor market. She added that retail sales are up and that consumers are still spending, despite inflation being sticky at 3%, which makes a case for why the FOMC should opt against a 50-basis-point Fed rate cut. In line with this, the Franklin Templeton CEO said that she would go with a 25 bps rate cut if she were Jerome Powell. She remarked that the Fed still has the October and December FOMC meetings to make further cuts if the incoming data warrants it. Johnson also asserted that the data show a robust economy. However, she noted that there can’t be an argument for no Fed rate cut since Powell already signaled at Jackson Hole that they were likely to lower interest rates at this meeting due to concerns over a weakening labor market. Notably, her comment comes as experts argue for both sides on why the Fed should make a 25 bps cut or…
