The cryptocurrency industry has been working overtime to sell a story: that there is a large contingent of voters voting based on candidates’ crypto policy stances. The problem is, it’s a story that does not seem to be well supported by data.

When did cryptocurrency policy become a voter issue?

I don’t believe that it has.

@molly0xfff Cryptocurrency is not an issue for me: when asked to explain it, I'll just say "tulips" (the 17th century economic bubble). It might have some niche applications such as currency exchange, where you "hold" crypocurrency for the time needed to complete a currency-exchange transaction, hopefully a few milliseconds but in any case for a short enough time that the value won't change by more than a trivial amount.
