The crypto voter bloc amounts to approximately 26 million citizens: 16% of Americans consider cryptocurrency policies “extremely” or “very” important for their decision.
In a recent survey conducted by the digital asset advocacy group The Digital Chamber, it emerged that approximately 26 million US voters express a strong interest in cryptocurrency policies ahead of the 2024 elections. This block of voters considers digital asset issues as a priority in choosing electoral candidates for the upcoming elections.
Survey results
The survey, which involved 1,004 participants from the two main US parties, revealed that 16% of respondents consider cryptocurrency policies “extremely” or “very” important for their electoral decision. The results indicated that at least 25% of Democrats and 21% of Republicans stated that a candidate’s position on cryptocurrencies would positively influence their likelihood of voting for them.
Furthermore, over 60% of respondents from both parties believe that supporting the cryptocurrency industry should be a medium or high-level priority for both the new president and Congress.
The survey suggests a growing interest among voters for a balanced regulation of the crypto sector, which can ensure consumer protection without hindering innovation.
The group’s founder and CEO, Perianne Boring, emphasized the importance of these findings for policymakers: as the elections approach, cryptocurrency-related policies could receive more attention, especially considering the potential impact of the crypto voter block in a balanced electoral context.
