Federal Reserve Chairman nominee Waller has invested in crypto infrastructure projects through investment vehicles, including Compound and Solana.
According to ChainCatcher, crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett reported that the financial disclosure of Federal Reserve Chairman nominee Waller shows he holds early-stage investments through employment-related investment tools, covering a wide range of areas, including some crypto infrastructure projects. The projects involved include: Compound (a decentralized lending protocol), Optimism and Blast (Ethereum Layer 2 networks), as well as Solana. In addition, they include trading infrastructure, crypto investment firms, and platforms in sectors such as artificial intelligence and biotechnology. These holdings appear to be small in scale, have limited liquidity, and have not generated reportable income, indicating a preference for indirect venture capital-style exposure rather than direct, tradable liquid assets.
