Marco Santori claims that crypto donations played a significant role in supporting Donald Trump during the 2024 elections. About half of the political contributions made by corporations came from the crypto sector, totaling 119 million USD, thereby reinforcing the influence of cryptocurrency voters in shaping election outcomes.
Santori highlighted that detractors often label these contributions as conflicts of interest only when they oppose certain causes. He argues that the crypto industry’s lobbying efforts were pivotal in securing political success for candidates aligned with crypto interests across various demographics.
