The Crypto Council for Innovation (CCI) has announced its integration with the Proof of Stake Alliance (POSA), retaining POSA's executive director, Alison Mangiero. This move aims to strengthen advocacy efforts in response to increasing regulatory scrutiny on staking in digital assets. The CCI is also expanding its global presence through partnerships with the Japan Cryptoasset Business Association and Global Digital Finance in the U.K., focusing on collaborative research and policy advocacy. Additionally, CCI has appointed Yele Bademosi as an advisor in Africa to further enhance its influence in emerging markets. Sheila Warren, CEO of CCI, emphasized that merging POSA's technical expertise with CCI’s expansive advocacy will guide discussions on the future of proof-of-stake ecosystems.
