In a first for US politics, the upcoming election is seeing politicians from both sides of the aisle taking a stand on cryptocurrency and blockchain issues. The move is believed to be strategic, as crypto owners now make up 15-20% of the American public. The rehiring of Carole House, author of President Joe Biden's executive order to establish a regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies in the U.S., is seen as a sign of this shift. The typical crypto investor in the U.S. is a young, politically centrist male, often Latino or African-American, who is likely to own stocks too, making them a highly sought after "swing voter".
