A new poll funded by Grayscale reveals that crypto is becoming an increasingly important issue for voters in the upcoming 2024 U.S. elections. The poll shows that a majority of likely voters believe that presidential candidates should be knowledgeable about crypto and innovative technology. Additionally, Republicans are perceived to have a slight advantage over Democrats in terms of being favorable towards crypto investors. The poll also indicates a growing number of respondents who view crypto and blockchain as the future of finance. Furthermore, an analysis by Coinbase suggests that crypto voters could have a significant impact on the outcome of the presidential election in key battleground states. The analysis reveals that the total number of cryptocurrency investors in these states is 16 times greater than the vote differentials in the 2020 election. Crypto owners are typically younger, racially diverse, and have lower incomes. They are evenly split between favoring President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, but they are more likely to be Democrats or independents. The analysis also highlights the need for U.S. regulations, with 81% of crypto owners believing that the lack of regulations is hindering wider adoption.
