Crypto Business Leaders Establish Non-Profit for Bitcoin Voter Education

Cryptocurrency mining executives are taking action to educate voters about Bitcoin and its underlying technology. Three industry leaders - Jayson Browder, VP of government affairs at Marathon Digital, and executives from Riot Platforms and CleanSpark - have joined the board of directors and helped launch a non-profit organization focused on Bitcoin. The board has registered as a 501(c)(4) in the United States, known as the Bitcoin Voter Project. Unlike political action committees (PACs), 501(c)(4) organizations are prohibited from endorsing specific candidates or parties. Instead, the group's primary objective is to educate voters about cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, thereby supporting policies that foster their growth and understanding. This initiative highlights the growing interest in cryptocurrencies among mainstream businesses and investors. As the industry continues to evolve, it is crucial to provide voters with accurate information about Bitcoin and its potential impact on the economy and society. The Bitcoin Voter Project aims to fulfill this need, empowering voters to make informed decisions about the future of digital currencies.
