Executives from three major U.S. cryptocurrency mining companies have formed the Bitcoin Voter Project, a nonprofit organization aimed at educating voters about bitcoin, with plans to launch before the 2024 presidential election. Jayson Browder of Marathon Digital Holdings forms the organization's board of directors with executives from Riot Platforms and CleanSpark. The organization is registered as a 501 (c) (4) organization and cannot primarily support one candidate or political party.
The project has about $5 million for research and voter education, with the goal of getting voters to support candidates who support digital assets. Unlike Coinbase's Stand With Crypto PAC, the Bitcoin Voter Project does not currently list specific candidates or crypto-related legislation. Browder emphasizes that the organization is non-partisan, aims to identify and educate potential voters, and plans to influence political elections in the future.
A number of crypto advocacy group representatives have expressed support for the Bitcoin Voter Project, and as of June 14, hundreds of people have signed up.
