Coinbase-Backed Stand With Crypto Launches 2026 Midterm Voter Push

Coinbase-Backed Stand With Crypto has unveiled its political plan for the 2026 U.S. midterm elections, including early endorsements and a new online voter hub aimed at mobilizing pro-crypto voters. The Coinbase-backed group said it will back six incumbent lawmakers across both parties and concentrate resources on competitive House races where digital-asset policy could matter. The voter hub is designed to provide up-to-date candidate positions on crypto, using scorecards based on public statements, legislative records, and responses to a Stand With Crypto questionnaire. Stand With Crypto described itself as building a voting bloc from more than 2.7 million advocates nationwide. Executive director Mason Lynaugh framed the goal as helping ensure the next Congress is “the most pro-crypto” in U.S. history, highlighting candidates it says support pragmatic innovation-friendly policies. Named endorsed lawmakers: Zach Nunn (R-IA), Susie Lee (D-NV), Mike Lawler (R-NY), Don Davis (D-NC), Greg Landsman (D-OH), and Rob Borsellino Bresnahan (R-PA). A reported poll of 1,000 crypto owners/advocates found cross-party voting behavior: 59% of owners and 77% of advocates were described as not consistently aligned with one party. Nearly one-third of these voters were said to be persuadable in Senate races. On turnout motivation, about 80% said they are “almost certain” to vote in 2026, and over 75% said they are enthusiastic. For policy negotiations around the anticipated “CLARITY Act,” 74% of crypto owners said they would be more likely to support candidates favoring clearer regulatory frameworks.
