Georgia Governor Brian Kemp is expected to appoint Kelly Loeffler, CEO of institutional Bitcoin (BTC) futures platform Bakkt, for a United States Senate seat next week.
Atlanta’s local news outlet AJC reported on Nov. 29 that Kemp plans to choose Loeffler in a bid to expand the appeal of the Republican party to women. If nominated, Bakkt’s CEO will become just the second woman to serve in the United States Senate from Georgia.
