Fairshake, a political action committee in the U.S., has secured significant funding to support crypto initiatives in upcoming elections.
Fairshake's Fundraising in 2025
According to a statement released on Tuesday, Fairshake raised around $52 million in the first half of 2025, including a $25 million contribution from Coinbase. This builds on the $109 million raised since November 2024, making the PAC one of the most active spenders for the crypto industry.
Influencing Crypto Policy Through Elections
While Fairshake has not directly supported Donald Trump's campaign, various figures within the crypto industry, including Ripple Labs executives, have contributed to his efforts.
Fairshake's Future in 2026
If Fairshake's efforts continue to succeed in the 2026 elections, they could strengthen the Republican agenda to regulate digital assets and significantly alter the crypto policy landscape in the U.S.
Fairshake represents a critical element in the crypto industry's drive to influence legislation in the U.S., with the potential for significant impact on future policies.
