Fairshake, the cryptocurrency industry's most powerful political action committee, announced Tuesday that it now holds more than $141 million in cash on hand, underscoring the sector's growing influence as Congress takes up landmark legislation this week.
The total, which includes liquid assets like crypto, stock, and cash, reflects a surge of donations from digital asset executives and firms, including a fresh $25 million from Coinbase .
Fairshake and its two affiliated PACs — Defend American Jobs and Protect Progress — have raised $109 million since Election Day in 2024 and $52 million during just the first half of this year.
"We are building an aggressive, targeted strategy for next year to ensure that pro-crypto voices are heard in key races across the country," said spokesperson Josh Vlasto.
