According to a16z’s “State of Crypto” report, crypto interest has surged in three of the top five swing states since 2020.
Digital assets may not be a top issue in the United States presidential elections, but they are increasingly becoming a key topic for many voters, particularly in swing states.
According to a16z’s “State of Crypto 2024” report, data from Google Trends indicates that Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, both expected to host tight races, have recorded the fourth- and fifth-largest increases in cryptocurrency search interest since the 2020 elections.
Other swing states, such as Michigan and Georgia, have also seen a surge in cryptocurrency queries, while Arizona and Nevada have experienced moderate declines in interest since 2020. These states can swing either way — Democratic or Republican — during presidential elections, often playing a crucial role in determining the outcome of US elections.
