To bring forth the adoption of Cardano and blockchain as a whole, trust must be built between players in a blockchain ecosystem to facilitate interoperability and adopt suitable standards that stakeholders can uphold. EMURGO's entry into the Chamber is intended to address these issues by directly engaging with regulators to help form effective blockchain-related policies, build resources, and highlight the values of the Cardano protocol.
