The new US Cryptocurrency Political Action Committee (BLF) has been established to support candidates for blockchain friendly policies According to BlockBeats, on March 31, as the 2026 midterm elections in the United States approach, a new cryptocurrency political action committee (PAC) - the Blockchain Leadership Fund (BLF) - was officially launched on March 30, 2026. The fund is initiated by members of The Digital Chamber and supports candidates promoting digital asset and blockchain friendly policies, covering elections at federal, state, and local levels. As a hybrid PAC, it can both directly donate to candidates and fund independent political propaganda activities. Early supporters included Anchorage Digital and Chainlink Labs. The encryption industry is intensifying its efforts to influence the legislative process of digital assets in the United States, especially during critical periods of regulatory framework discussions such as the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act. At the same time, the well-known crypto super PAC Fairshake (supported by Coinbase, Ripple, and Andreessen Horowitz) suffered a setback in the March 2026 Illinois primary. Despite its outstanding performance since 2023, the PAC raised $260 million during the 2023-2024 election cycle, supported 33 candidates in 35 primaries, and continued to accumulate $193 million in funding by the end of 2025. But its recent investment of nearly $20 million in the Illinois primary was not effective, with a total of over $10 million spent against Democratic Senate candidate Juliana Stratton and nearly $2.5 million against Congressman La Shawn Ford, both ultimately failing.
