WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Chamber of Digital Commerce (http://www.digitalchamber.org/) is seeking supporters to sign its petition to Benjamin Lawsky, the State of New York’s superintendent of financial services, asking him to extend the comment period of the proposed BitLicense Rules and Regulations through the end of 2014. An extension is necessary to allow the digital commerce industry time to formulate proposals that address the state’s Department of Financial Services’ (NYDFS) goals of providing guardrails which do not threaten technological innovation.
