Molly WhiteIt’s finally time to release my newest project: https://www.followthecrypto.org/
This website provides a real-time lens into the cryptocurrency industry’s efforts to influence 2024 elections in the United States.
cryptax@molly0xfff Interesting. I suppose this is legal in the US? Do you see a reason the various parties use cryptocurrencies rather than USD? + how do you trace the sums: must be quite difficult to know *who* spends and *what* for, as transactions are usually anonymous... how do you do that? any research paper on that aspect?
@cryptax most of this spending is in dollars. where they do spend in crypto, they still have to report it to the FEC.
it's possible (likely, even) that there's dark spending happening that isn't being reported, but that's not what this site is tracking.
