Axios reports:
Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp’s decision to name Kelly Loeffler as interim U.S. senator has generated lots of political buzz, due to some Trump loyalists claiming betrayal.
The intra-GOP skirmish has obscured the big business story, in that Loeffler will become one of precious few senators with a working knowledge of technology and, in particular, blockchain technology.
Loeffler is founding CEO of Bakkt, an Atlanta-based cryptocurrency custodian and infrastructure company formed in mid-2018 as a subsidiary of Intercontinental Exchange.

Looking forward to welcoming Kelly Loeffler to the Senate. She has big shoes to fill, but her experience will serve the people and state of Georgia well. Congratulations, Kelly.

.@resurgent: “Beyond her “outsider status,” Kelly Loeffler is unapologetically pro-life. She is a strong supporter of the Heartbeat Bill and has pledged to be a Senator in the mold of the Governor who sparked a pro-life flame across the country.” https://t.co/h26CDvKqvr #gapol

While Senator Isakson leaves behind big shoes to fill, I look forward to working with Kelly Loeffler, my new partner in the U.S. Senate, to continue that positive change for Georgia and our country. (2/2)
