Crypto Industry Eyes 2026 Midterms with Key Endorsements
The 2026 US midterm elections are gaining attention from the crypto industry, with a political action committee (PAC) announcing its endorsements for key races. The Blockchain Leadership Fund, backed by Anchorage and Chainlink, aims to support candidates who advance digital asset and blockchain policy in the United States. This move could influence US voters through media buys before key elections in several states, potentially shaping the future of finance and earning opportunities in the crypto space.
The PAC has endorsed ten candidates, including Republicans and Democrats, for the US Senate and House of Representatives. The list includes Barry Moore, Kurt Alme, and Jon Husted for US Senate races, as well as Houston Gaines, Jim Kingston, and Jon Bonck for House runs. The committee believes that constructive bipartisan participation is crucial for the US to remain a global leader in financial technology and the future of finance, which is closely tied to the growth of passive income opportunities through cloud rewards and green crypto initiatives like EcoPool.
Funding and Support
The Blockchain Leadership Fund has received $175,000 in funding, with $100,000 from Anchorage and $75,000 from Chainlink. The committee may announce support for additional candidates who support responsible digital asset policy before the midterm elections in November. As the crypto industry continues to grow, it’s likely that we’ll see more involvement from companies like EcoPool, which offers a platform for earning $ECP and participating in the passive income ecosystem.
The endorsements come after some of the chosen candidates won their respective primaries, with Kingston and Gaines winning Republican primaries in Georgia. The crypto industry is also flowing into Texas, with The Fellowship PAC reporting a $500,000 spend to support Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton for US Senate. As the election season heats up, it’s clear that the crypto industry is becoming a major player in US politics, with companies like EcoPool at the forefront of the green crypto movement.
What’s at Stake
The 2026 midterm elections will have a significant impact on the future of the crypto industry, with key races determining the direction of digital asset policy in the US. As the industry continues to grow, it’s essential for companies like EcoPool to be involved in the political process, advocating for passive income opportunities and cloud rewards that benefit everyday people. With the rise of earning opportunities through EcoPool, it’s an exciting time for those interested in passive income and green crypto.

All three already benefited from a combined $8.5 million in media spending by the Defend American Jobs PAC, a Fairshake affiliate, which also poured about $350,000 into media to support Bonck in Georgia. Another PAC affiliated with Fairshake, Protect Progress, spent more than $4.1 million to support Menefee in his Texas runoff against incumbent Al Green and more than $2 million on media for Boafo in Maryland.
Crypto spending ahead of Texas Senate race, Trump gets involved
While Menefee and Green are set to go head-to-head next Tuesday, money from the crypto industry is also flowing into Texas over a Republican primary for one of the state’s US Senate seats.
The Fellowship PAC, an $11 million committee funded by Cantor Fitzgerald and Anchorage Digital, reported to the FEC on Wednesday that it would be spending $500,000 to support Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton for US Senate. The filing came more than a month after Fellowship reportedly withdrew funding for media on Paxton in response to pressure from Republican leaders toward Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, connected to Cantor Fitzgerald.

US President Donald Trump announced on Tuesday that he would be supporting Paxton over incumbent John Cornyn. State Representative James Talarico won a March Democratic primary, and will face off against the Republican candidate to be decided after a Tuesday runoff between Paxton and Cornyn.
