New Crypto.com Office Opens Near the White House

Crypto.com is opening a regional office in Washington, D.C., adding to its growing footprint across North America. The new location, just blocks from the White House, will serve as the exchange’s hub for government and public affairs. This places the firm it at the center of U.S. crypto regulation discussions and suggests the company is preparing for a more involved role as digital assets gain greater attention from lawmakers.

Good to know

• The new office will manage U.S. policy and regulatory engagement.
• Crypto.com also opened a regional HQ in Tyler, Texas in 2024.
• The firm recently partnered with Trump Media on crypto-related ETFs.

In a press release issued May 7, Crypto.com said the decision to expand in D.C. reflects the increasing importance of the U.S. market to its long-term strategy. Matt David, President of North America and Chief Corporate Affairs Officer, called the U.S. “the most exciting frontier for our entire industry.”

David added, “The U.S. market is central to the growth strategy of Crypto.com… expanding our presence and workforce in the capital will help support our shared goals of responsibly growing both the business and the wider crypto industry.”

The D.C. office will focus on navigating regulatory discussions, policy engagement, and other public affairs matters. It is part of a broader industry trend where crypto companies are reentering or scaling up their U.S. operations.

Just last month, Crypto.com also announced a partnership with Trump Media to launch new crypto-linked exchange-traded products. Those products are expected to roll out later this year, aligning with a push by major players to bridge traditional finance with blockchain offerings.

Other firms are taking similar steps. OKX recently revealed plans to relaunch its U.S. crypto exchange and introduce a new Web3 wallet for American users.
