The crypto lobby has made its mark on the US presidential elections.
The crypto industry smashed all lobbying records in 2024 as President-elect Donald Trump secured a second term to return to the White House.
All across America, in key battleground states, money from crypto lobbyists made its mark. One of the biggest wins came in Ohio, where Republican Bernie Moreno ousted Democrat Sherrod Brown at a cost to crypto lobbyists of $40 million.
Brown, a crypto skeptic, was also chair of the Senate Banking Committee. Moreno’s victory removes a major crypto roadblock in Washington.
