A survey conducted by Politico and Public First revealed that only 4% of American voters consider a candidate's stance on crypto policy a deciding factor in their vote. For respondents, housing prices, consumer protection against fraud, and reducing bank fees were identified as the most critical issues. This is reported by Cointelegraph.com reports .
Although crypto industry lobbyists have spent over $130 million to influence legislation ahead of the 2024 elections, there is a significant gap between the priorities of ordinary voters and the goals of lobbyists.

27% of survey participants support the government legitimizing crypto as a primary financial asset, while 31% oppose it. More than half of the respondents stated that they have not traded crypto and do not plan to do so in the future.
