The Digital Future project did not endorse specific candidates or political parties, but its CEO ran as a Republican in a 2022 congressional campaign associated with FTX.
Michelle Bond, the CEO behind a crypto-focused think tank in Washington, DC and the partner of former FTX Digital Markets co-CEO Ryan Salame, announced the launch of an initiative “to boost voter registration and crypto education” in the United States.
In a July 24 notice, crypto think tank Digital Future said it would initially target US voters in Arizona, Nevada, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina as part of Project Swing. According to Digital Future, the voter project aims to “activate support for pro-crypto candidates” ahead of the 2024 election season, which is already in full swing nationwide.
Bond said in an X post that the project would help “ensure the right candidates are elected” related to policies on financial freedom. Cointelegraph reached out to Digital Future for comment but did not receive a response at the time of publication.
