Roughly a third of eligible voters in the United States will be \u201cconsidering crypto policy positions\u201d when choosing candidates in the 2022 midterm elections, according to a new survey.<\/p>\n
In the results of a 2,029-person survey conducted by The Harris Poll between Oct. 6-11, 57% of likely midterm voters\u00a0said they would be more likely to vote for a political candidate interested in staying informed about cryptocurrencies, while 38% said they would consider positions on crypto policy when voting in the midterms. The survey, initiated by Grayscale Investments, also suggested crypto regulation was a bipartisan issue, with 87% of Democratic and 76% of Republican respondents saying they wanted clarity from the U.S. government.<\/p>\n
\u201cVoters and lawmakers alike have been hearing about crypto, and it seems they\u2019ve taken the opportunity to learn about the asset class,\u201d said the Grayscale summary. \u201cDespite political divisions, the survey found broad familiarity with crypto across party lines and a majority of both Republicans and Democrats who agree that crypto represents the future of finance.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\u201cThis survey reinforces that #crypto<\/a> continues to generate diverse, mainstream investor interest and engagement,\u201d said Grayscale CEO @Sonnenshein<\/a>. Compare your answers with the results here: https:\/\/t.co\/SLus4nfopk<\/p>\n
