Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign has announced that it will begin accepting cryptocurrency donations to support her bid in the upcoming November election. Among the cryptocurrencies now accepted are <a href="https://timestabloid.com/analyst-projects-timeline-for-shiba-inu-shib-price-to-hit-0-00023/">Shiba Inu</a> (SHIB) and many other digital assets. This move reflects the growing influence of cryptocurrencies in political fundraising. 
<h2 id="b-cryptocurrency-as-a-funding-source-b">Cryptocurrency as a Funding Source</h2> 
Harris’s decision to embrace digital currencies for campaign contributions marks a shift in political fundraising strategies. Her campaign, in collaboration with the Future Forward political action committee (PAC), will utilize Coinbase Commerce to facilitate these transactions. 
The accepted cryptocurrencies include popular coins such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Apecoin, Dogecoin, Litecoin, DAI, USDT, USDC, MATIC, and SHIB. 
The inclusion of SHIB is particularly significant, highlighting the asset’s rising prominence within the cryptocurrency sector. Its presence as a donation option underlines the increasing viability of SHIB. 
<h2 id="b-harris-crypto-strategy-and-potential-implications-b">Harris’ Crypto Strategy and Potential Implications</h2> 
While Vice President Harris has not stated her stance on cryptocurrency during her campaign, the decision to accept these digital assets suggests that her team is open to exploring the sector further. One of Harris’ advisors <a href="https://x.com/dennis_porter_/status/1826355490915582105?s=46">indicated</a> that she sees the potential in cryptocurrency, although concrete plans have yet to be articulated. 
Coinbase’s Chief Financial Officer, Alesia Haas, <a href="https://fortune.com/2024/09/04/coinbase-cfo-says-kamala-harris-is-using-firm-to-accept-crypto-donations/">emphasized</a> the positive impact this development could have on the crypto sector. She suggested that regardless of the election’s outcome, the United States might be moving towards greater regulatory clarity for digital assets. 
In contrast, former President Donald Trump has been vocal in his support for the cryptocurrency industry. He has <a href="https://x.com/AltcoinDailyio/status/1814097757382328406">vowed</a> to prioritize the sector’s development by, for example, removing SEC Chair Gary Gensler, who has faced criticism for his approach to crypto regulation. 
If Harris adopts a more proactive stance on cryptocurrency, it could solidify the sector’s growth potential, regardless of which candidate ultimately prevails in the election.

<h2 id="b-influence-of-crypto-backed-political-action-committees-pacs-b">Influence of Crypto-backed Political Action Committees (PACs)</h2> 
The increasing role of crypto-backed super PACs in U.S. elections has also come into focus. These PACs have proven to be powerful players in political campaigns, often influencing electoral outcomes. As of mid-2024, data indicates that candidates supported by crypto-aligned super PACs have an impressive 94% success rate in elections. 
One of such PACs, Fairshare, backing pro-cryptocurrency candidates, raised over $100 million and supported 34 candidates, with 32 winning their races in both the House of Representatives and the Senate. 
This shows the significant impact of crypto-funded entities on US policy. The crypto sector has become a major source of political donations, contributing over $119 million as of June 2024. 
This trend is growing, with candidates like Kamala Harris accepting cryptocurrencies like Shiba Inu (SHIB) for campaign contributions, indicating an increasing openness to the industry. While Harris hasn’t fully outlined her plans for the crypto sector, her campaign’s acceptance of digital asset donations suggests a willingness to engage with the industry.
