2024 Election: The Role of Crypto

WATCH:  Five key questions on Election 2024 and crypto currency

Greyscale’s 2024 Election: The Role of Crypto Report states:

Harris Poll conducted a survey on behalf of Grayscale on voters in the 2024 US Election. The latest longitudinal survey data from Phase 3 (captured between between September 4th and 6th, 2024) reinforced the findings from the second phase and underscored that American voters continue to have many of the same priorities and attitudes since Phase 2 was fielded in May 2024. However, there have been some noteworthy shifts in interest and perception around owning crypto and how voters are thinking of crypto in the political landscape — both increasingly important topics leading up to the 2024 US Election.

Key Highlights – Top 5 Takeaways

1. Interest in crypto is highest since December 2023, and over half of voters are familiar with crypto.
2. Generally speaking, both political parties are viewed as having favorable crypto policies, but Republicans are perceived as more favorable for crypto investors and crypto companies. The two parties are seen as equally favorable for protecting investors’ financial privacy.
3. Regulation remains important in bolstering investor confidence in crypto – 8 in 10 U.S. voters see a role for regulators in managing new / emerging tech and 1 in 5 say that they would be more likely to invest in crypto if there were clearer regulations / policies for crypto.
4. Voters are taking notice of crypto with the election season approaching – 2 in 5 say that they are paying more attention to candidates’ positions on bitcoin and/or other crypto assets in this election compared to all other previous elections
5. Crypto owners are even more likely to consider political candidates’ crypto stances when they cast their vote – two thirds say that they are considering a candidates’ position on crypto before casting their vote.
