Stand With Crypto Director: The Crypto Vote Will Decide the Midterms | Mason Lynaugh

The midterms are November 3, and a shift in congressional power could reshape Bitcoin and crypto policy for years. Mason Lynaugh, Executive Director of Stand With Crypto, joins Grace Remington and Sean Hagan to break down the final push: 3.1 million advocates, 50 state chapters, 47 college chapters and 45 endorsed candidates. He explains why crypto voters are the low-propensity swing bloc campaigns spend millions to find, why the Clarity Act and GENIUS Act votes prove the issue is bipartisan, and why he expects the most pro-Bitcoin Congress in history no matter who wins.
