Brett Quick, head of government affairs at the crypto alliance, emphasized the importance of nuanced policymaking, acknowledging the influential role crypto voters could play in shaping the 2024 electoral landscape. The results suggest the need for political candidates to interact with the diverse perspectives of the crypto community.
As discussions over cryptocurrency regulations unfold, the survey revealed that 83% of voters deciding between Biden and Trump prefer candidates who advocate for clear rules in the cryptocurrency space.
