More than half of Americans say they would feel more protected if Congress passes the cryptocurrency industry’s top legislative priority, according to a new poll conducted by Focaldata on behalf of crypto company Coinbase.
The poll, shared first with Semafor, also found that 36% of Americans — 38% of likely Democratic voters and 41% of likely Republican voters — would be more likely to vote for a candidate who supports the bill overhauling regulation of the industry.
The findings come as congressional Democrats circulate other polling on primary voters’ negative perceptions of crypto.
“Because at the end of the day, there’s not enough intensity in a Democratic primary on this issue, probably, to make a difference.
But there is enough intensity in a general election to make a difference — and this kind of shows that.”
