With 100 days until the 2026 midterms, nearly 70% of crypto holders cite policy stances as voting factors. 73% monitor legislative support, while 59% lack fixed party affiliation.

Woofun AI reports that Stand With Crypto stated on July 26 that nearly 70% of surveyed cryptocurrency holders believe a candidate's stance on crypto will influence their vote in the upcoming 2026 midterm elections. The advocacy group noted that 73% of respondents are closely monitoring which crypto policies lawmakers support, while 59% do not have a fixed party affiliation.

The organization added that crypto supporters have contacted Congress over 1 million times regarding relevant legislation. Market attention remains focused on the CLARITY Act, the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025, which aims to clarify the division of responsibilities between the SEC and CFTC in digital asset regulation. Supporters argue there is a limited time window to advance legislation before the election-year agenda tightens, while opponents contend that any new framework must maintain protections against fraud and market manipulation.
