Coinbase-Led Group Backs 32 House Candidates Ahead of 2026 Midterms

Stand With Crypto, an advocacy group launched by Coinbase in 2023, has endorsed 32 candidates for U.S. House races ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.

The group says the move is designed to shape federal digital-asset policy by backing lawmakers it views as credible champions for the sector.

Stand With Crypto framed its candidate slate as part of a broader effort to mobilize 'crypto voters,' arguing that digital-asset issues may become more influential in close races where candidates seek support beyond traditional political constituencies.

The organization's executive director, Mason Lynaugh, said the timing reflects what he called an inflection point for crypto policy in Washington.
