The White House Crypto Summit scheduled for March 7 will host a select group of 20-25 industry leaders in a roundtable setting, according to Fox Business journalist Eleanor Terrett.
As of March 4, official invitations for the event had yet to be distributed, reflecting a planning process still in flux.
The intimate gathering will include prominent figures from the cryptocurrency sector alongside key members of the Presidential Working Group on Digital Assets, signaling a focused discussion on the future of digital finance in the U.S.
Terrett reported that the guest list, smaller than initially expected, will feature notable industry figures such as Michael Saylor, alongside government officials like Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, and Attorney General Pam Bondi.
"The gathering of around 20-25 people will be a roundtable setting at the White House," Terrett wrote in her scoop on X, emphasizing the event's exclusive nature.
The summit, led by David Sacks and overseen by Bo Hines, executive director of President Donald Trump's digital asset task force, aims to address critical policy decisions for the crypto industry.
The event's structure has drawn attention amid broader speculation about potential regulatory changes, including a zero crypto tax policy proposed by Eric Trump.
However, experts like Adam Cochran, founder of Cinneamhain Ventures, have cautioned that such a policy faces significant hurdles.

"Even if the president announced it or signed an executive order, it wouldn't automatically become law," Cochran stated on X, underscoring that tax law changes require Congressional approval under the U.S. Constitution.
While the roundtable will focus on a select group, a larger, invite-only reception is planned afterward across the street from the White House for those who cannot attend the main discussion.
"This is all happening in real time with plans not 100% finalized so things could change," Terrett noted, highlighting the fluid nature of the summit's preparations.
The event marks President Trump's first major engagement with the crypto community since taking office, reflecting his vocal support for positioning the U.S. as a global leader in digital assets.
The summit comes as debate intensifies over crypto tax reform, with investors and policymakers weighing the implications of eliminating capital gains taxes on cryptocurrencies.
Attendees will include prominent project founders, CEOs of major crypto firms, investors, and regulators, according to an official statement from the Office of Communications.
While the agenda remains under wraps, the roundtable format suggests a collaborative approach to tackling these complex issues.
