- FairShake Crypto Super Political Action Committee has reportedly secured over $193 million to sponsor pro-crypto lawmakers in the midterm elections coming up towards the end of this year.
- The Super PAC boasts a 72 percent candidate success rate and is expected to deliver a majority pro-crypto Congress in the November midterms.
FairShake, one of the foremost Crypto Super PACs (Political Action Committees), has secured over $193 million in funding for the 2026 midterm election. The PAC has also attracted $74 million since July 2025, with the major sponsors Ripple, Coinbase, and a16z accounting for this additional donation.
FairShake Overtakes Top Democrat Super PAC in Funding, Takes First Spot
To strengthen the advancement of innovative crypto policy in Congress, FairShake has begun gaining unmatched financial support from industry leaders. As the midterms draw close, the need to sponsor pro-crypto lawmakers into the chambers becomes a matter of priority if the current administration’s pace of progress on crypto rulemaking must be sustained.
Heading into the 2024 presidential cycle, FairShake had nearly $67 million dollars, trailing behind Democracy PAC II, created by billionaire George Soros to help elect Democrats. As of June 2025, FairShake’s funds sat under $120k, which was still below Democracy PAC II’s funds.
However, between July 2025 and now, the crypto PAC secured an enormous warchest that sent it rocketing past Democracy II PAC by miles. Coinbase and Ripple each donated $25 million to FairShake, while Andreessen Horowitz has donated $24 million—FairShake from the second spot to the single largest PAC by cash on hand in the US by a significant margin.
It is also noteworthy that FairShake has singlehandedly overtaken the Congressional Leadership Fund, the Super PAC focused on electing Republicans into the House of Representatives.
Crypto-Political Interplay In The US
The future of America’s digital asset industry largely depends on majority representation in the legislative chambers. FairShake boasts a 72 percent success rate by candidate, having delivered 13 candidates out of 18 supported in the 2024 election cycle, thereby proving its ability to produce big crypto’s required political structure.
Similarly, crypto has become a viable political element with a significant number of voters basing their decisions on candidates’ views on crypto and their potential to support pro-crypto legislation. The Trump administration has worked amicably with the majority pro-crypto Congress and looks forward to the same situation, come the midterms.
At the World Economic Forum in Davos last week, the President stated that political clout remains one of the cardinal reasons his administration has prioritised pro-crypto policy. Consequently, he has continued to engage in high-profile meetings with top industry leaders, including Coinbase’s Brian Armstrong and Ripple’s Brad Garlinghouse.
Next Monday, the White House will meet with crypto and banking lobbies to discuss the next steps of the crypto market structure legislation, per intimate sources. The meeting will emphasize the issue of yield-bearing stablecoins, which contributed significantly to Coinbase’s (and the crypto industry’s) withdrawal of support earlier this month.
