I am seriously not finding anything wrong in this move of including two crypto businessmen in the task force. It could have been much more worse not to have these leaders in the task force. At least these people will ensure that things don't turn hostile for the crypto users in the state of NY.
Time will tell if they try to turn the tide to their personal favor or not but having no representation from crypto business is much more worse! At least these two people will ensure that nothing goes against the cryptos in general!
Conflict of interests? Particularly favoring their own projects in detriment of the rest of the space? Sure it beats people that know nothing, but it still warrants attention, from the community.
Regulation in general is not good. The more the State meddles in, the less freedom the people ends with...
