Leading this organization, working alongside brilliant colleagues, members, and friends, and advocating for an industry that I believe is shaping the future has been an

领导该组织，与出色的同事，成员和朋友一起工作，并倡导我认为正在塑造未来的行业一直是一个

enormous privilege.

巨大的特权。

We’ve achieved a lot together. We played a key role in securing the passage of bipartisan legislation to provide clarity on digital assets, including crypto, and to create a regulatory framework for stablecoins. We also advocated for policies that promote responsible innovation and protect consumers.

我们在一起取得了很多成就。我们在确保两党立法的通过，以清楚包括加密货币在内的数字资产，并为Stablecoins创建监管框架。我们还主张制定促进负责任创新并保护消费者的政策。

I’m particularly proud of the work we did to educate policymakers and the public about blockchain technology and its potential to transform our economy and society. We organized countless events, meetings, and briefings, and I’m grateful to everyone who participated in these efforts.

我为我们为对决策者和公众提供有关区块链技术及其改变我们经济和社会的潜力的工作所做的工作感到特别自豪。我们组织了无数的活动，会议和简报，我感谢参加这些努力的每个人。

I’m also proud of the work we did to build a strong and united voice for the industry. We brought together a diverse range of members, from large corporations to startups, and we worked tirelessly to speak with one voice on the issues that matter most.

我也为我们为该行业建立强大而团结的声音所做的工作感到自豪。我们汇集了各种各样的成员，从大公司到初创公司，我们不懈地努力就最重要的问题发表声音。

I’m confident that Blockchain Association will continue to thrive under the leadership of its members and board of directors. I’m excited to see what the future holds for this organization and for the crypto industry as a whole.

我相信区块链协会将在其成员和董事会的领导下继续蓬勃发展。我很高兴看到该组织以及整个加密行业的未来。

P.S. I’m also joining the Solana Policy Institute as a founding board member and will be helping to launch a non-partisan, non-profit organization to accelerate the development of broad crypto policies ranging from stablecoins to market structure and industry initiatives.

PS我还加入Solana政策研究所作为创始委员会成员，并将帮助成立一个非党派的非营利组织，以加快从Stablecoins到市场结构和行业计划的广泛加密政策的制定。

It seems that Kristin Smith, the CEO of The Blockchain Association, has decided to move on to a newly-announced non-partisan, non-profit organization called the Solana Policy Institute, as reported by Benzinga.

Benzinga报道，区块链协会首席执行官克里斯汀·史密斯（Kristin Smith）决定继续前往一个新宣布的非党派非营利组织，名为Solana Policy Institute。

Those who follow the crypto industry closely will surely know Smith, who is also a former White House official and has experience in both the Bush and Obama administrations. Having worked at the Center for Strategic and International Studies as a research fellow in the Global Development program, Smith is also a graduate of both Stanford University and the University of Pennsylvania Law School.

那些密切关注加密货币行业的人肯定会认识史密斯，他也是前白宫官员，并且在布什和奥巴马政府中都有经验。史密斯（Smith）曾在全球发展计划中担任战略和国际研究中心，曾是斯坦福大学和宾夕法尼亚大学法学院的毕业生。

So, with such experience attached to The Blockchain Association for over 7 years – a lot of work has been done to develop many initiatives and strategies that can be effective for the government and beneficial to the crypto industry.

因此，随着区块链协会的这种经验已有7多年了 - 已经为制定许多对政府有效并对加密货币行业有益的计划和策略做出了许多工作。

However, while the work to continue developing this doesn’t end for The Blockchain Association – Smith has decided to put her efforts into the recently launched Solana Policy Institute. This is a non-partisan, non-profit organization that aims to accelerate the development of crypto policies that are as broad as possible regarding everything from stablecoins to market structure.

但是，尽管继续开发这一过程的工作并没有结束区块链协会，但史密斯决定将她的努力投入最近启动的Solana政策研究所。这是一个非党派的非营利组织，旨在加快加密政策的制定，这些政策在从稳定到市场结构到市场结构的所有方面都尽可能广泛。

Because key regulators already have a much better understanding of Bitcoin and are more prepared to regulate it effectively – the rapid and diverse development of DeFi and the Solana ecosystem, in particular, remains underdeveloped and requires similar, if not much more extensive efforts.

因为关键的监管机构已经对比特币有了更好的了解，并且已经准备好有效地调节它 - 尤其是Defi和Solana生态系统的快速而多样化的发展仍然不发达，并且需要类似的努力，即使不是更广泛的努力。

The Blockchain Association has confirmed the departure, and Smith did a post in their X that pretty comprehensively and positively summarizes previous experiences and upcoming initiatives.

区块链协会已经确认了这一离开，史密斯在其X上发表了一篇文章，对以前的经验和即将到来的计划进行了全面和积极的总结。
