暗号資産推進派のスーパーPACであるFairshakeは、火曜日に行われたケンタッキー州、アラバマ州、ジョージア州の予備選において、支援した6人の候補者を勝利に導きました。同団体はこれらの選挙戦に2000万ドル以上を投じており、結果を6戦全勝と評しています。
Fairshakeは、共和党の地盤が固い選挙区の候補者に多額の資金を投入しました。ケンタッキー州では、引退するミッチ・マコーネル上院議員の後任を決める上院予備選において、アンディ・バー下院議員を支援するために700万ドル以上を費やし、同氏は60%以上の得票率で勝利しました。アラバマ州では、バリー・ムーア下院議員の選挙戦に740万ドルを投じましたが、同氏は首位に立ったものの過半数には届かず、決選投票に臨むことになりました。
X（旧Twitter）のユーザーの間では、Fairshake PACが2000万ドルを投じてケンタッキー、アラバマ、ジョージア各州の予備選で暗号資産推進派候補を6戦全勝させたことについて議論が交わされています。反応はおおむね肯定的または中立的で、暗号資産業界の政治的影響力の拡大が注目されています。一部では規制への影響を指摘する声もあり、全体の傾向について懐疑的な意見も見られました。
