Stand With Crypto Endorses Senate Hopefuls Ahead of Congressional Elections

Crypto Advocacy Group Stand With Crypto has unveiled its slate of political endorsements ahead of the next congressional session. The organization, launched by Coinbase in 2023 to promote 'clear, common-sense regulations' for the crypto industry, is backing candidates across key Senate and House races that it believes could shape US lawmakers' handling of digital-asset legislation.

The group's picks reflect a strategy of aligning electoral outcomes with regulatory priorities. Stand With Crypto's stated focus includes support for the Digital Asset Market Clarity (CLARITY) Act, a crypto market-structure bill that has moved unevenly through Congress.

The CLARITY Act failed to secure enough support in the Republican-controlled Senate after passing the House with bipartisan backing in 2025. In response to this setback, Stand With Crypto warned lawmakers who did not support the bill could face consequences, framing the moment as a high-stakes inflection point for future legislative direction.
