8月24日（路透社）——由加密货币巨头Coinbase（COIN.O）支持的倡导团体“支持加密货币”（Stand With Crypto）周一背书了32名现任国会候选人参加11月的中期选举，加密行业在华盛顿的影响力正进一步巩固。
路透社率先报道了此次背书行动，此时加密行业的头号政策优先事项《清晰法案》正因部分议员反对而在参议院陷入停滞。所有获得背书的候选人都在去年投票支持该法案在众议院通过，“支持加密货币”团体希望这些亲加密行业的候选人能再次当选。加密公司表示，该法案将为他们带来长期寻求的法律监管清晰度。

“支持加密货币”执行董事梅森·莱诺在采访中表示，该团体2026年的竞选活动延续了其2024年的行动——这是该团体首次参与选举周期。
“2024年，我们主要在证明加密货币选民群体真实存在；2026年，我们则要展示我们具备组织能力，我们的支持者是真正的投票阵营，可以切实影响选举结果。”莱诺说道。
Coinbase于2023年发起成立“支持加密货币”团体，旨在启动草根倡导运动，目标是推动有利于加密货币的立法。该团体希望通过组织和动员选民而非大额竞选支出的方式影响选举。
该团体称其拥有超过300万已注册的美国“支持者”。
“支持加密货币”团体于3月背书了6名寻求连任的国会候选人。此次新增的32名背书候选人中，包括该行业在众议院的几位关键盟友：共和党人汤姆·埃默、比尔·惠曾加，以及民主党人里奇·托雷斯和约什·戈特海默。
32名候选人中有多位身处竞争激烈的选区，比如亚利桑那州共和党人胡安·西斯科马尼和宾夕法尼亚州共和党人布莱恩·菲茨帕特里克。
“我认为我们可以在其中一些选区成为决定胜负的关键力量。”莱诺说道。该团体表示，将在选举日临近时公布其参议院候选人背书名单。
加密行业在2024年选举期间斥资1.7亿美元支持国会候选人，其中多位候选人成功当选。这助力该行业去年取得一项胜利：国会通过了《稳定币法案》，为美元挂钩加密代币（即稳定币）制定了监管规则，有望推动其普及。
该行业目前已为11月的中期选举投入近2亿美元，凸显了其在国会的影响力。其中大部分资金通过Fairshake拨付——这是一个为支持亲加密货币候选人而成立的大型超级政治行动委员会。

Aug 24 (Reuters) – Stand With Crypto, an advocacy group backed by crypto giant Coinbase (COIN.O), on Monday endorsed 32 incumbent congressional candidates for the November midterm elections, as the industry cements influence in Washington.
The endorsements, first reported by Reuters, come as the Clarity Act, the crypto industry’s top policy priority, stalls in the Senate amid opposition from some lawmakers. All the candidates endorsed voted last year to pass the bill out of the House of Representatives, and Stand With Crypto hopes to return those industry-friendly candidates to office. Crypto companies say the legislation would give them long-sought legal clarity.

Stand With Crypto’s 2026 campaign builds on its 2024 effort, the first cycle that the group was active, Mason Lynaugh, executive director of Stand With Crypto, said in an interview.
“In 2024 we were very much proving that the crypto voter is real. In 2026 we’re very much showing that we have the organizing capacity and that our advocates are a true voting bloc that can move the needle,” said Lynaugh.
Coinbase launched Stand With Crypto in 2023 to jumpstart a grassroots advocacy campaign with the goal of advancing pro-crypto legislation. It aims to influence elections by organizing and mobilizing voters rather than through large campaign expenditures.

It says it has more than 3 million registered U.S. “advocates.”
Stand With Crypto endorsed six congressional candidates in March who are running for reelection. Among the new raft of 32 endorsees are some of the industry’s key House allies, including Republicans Tom Emmer, and Bill Huizenga, and Democrats Ritchie Torres and Josh Gottheimer.
Several of the 32 are running in competitive races, like Arizona Republican Juan Ciscomani and Pennsylvania Republican Brian Fitzpatrick.
“I think we can be the difference maker in some of these,” Lynaugh said. The group said it will announce its Senate endorsements closer to Election Day.
The crypto industry spent $170 million supporting congressional candidates during the 2024 elections, many of whom won their races. That helped it score a victory last year when Congress passed the Genius Act, which created rules for dollar-backed crypto tokens called stablecoins, potentially boosting their adoption.
The sector has already poured close to $200 million into the November midterm elections, underscoring its muscle in Congress. Much of that has been directed through Fairshake, a major super political action committee created to support pro-crypto candidates.
