Stand With Crypto (SWC), an advocacy group founded by Coinbase, has announced its strategy for the 2026 U.S. midterm elections, focusing on mobilizing crypto voters in pivotal districts. The organization is prioritizing Ohio's 9th District and Pennsylvania's 10th District due to concerns over incumbents' crypto policy stances. Additional battlegrounds include Iowa, Nevada, New York, and North Carolina, where crypto voters could have a decisive impact.
SWC, established in 2023, aims to unite global crypto advocates and has seen approximately 270 pro-crypto candidates elected to Congress in 2024. The group rates candidates based on their crypto policy positions and highlights research indicating that 74% of crypto asset holders prefer candidates advocating for clear regulatory frameworks. Political action committees, such as Protect Progress, are also influencing elections, with significant spending in races like Texas and Illinois. The 2026 elections are viewed as a crucial test of the crypto industry's political clout.
