United

<h4><strong>The next US presidential election is around the corner. Candidates’ knowledge of crypto is becoming necessary to get more votes, especially from those who are into crypto.&nbsp;Read on to get the details.</strong></h4>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As a <a href="https://www.grayscale.com/elections#block-6495" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Grayscale report</a> highlighted, crypto has taken root in the United States for politics, privacy, and personal finance.</span></p>
<h5><strong>U.S. Regulators</strong></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">U.S. voters see a vital role for regulators in managing new and emerging technologies. What are the primary duties they apportion to the regulators? National security concerns (47%) and investor or consumer protection (45%). However, for Democrats, regulators occupy more of this space than their Republican or Independent counterparts.</span></p>
<h5><strong>The Political Divide on Crypto</strong></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When it comes to this industry, the Republican Party is more favorable to both investors and companies. The public views both parties equally when protecting <a href="https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/?s=financial+privacy" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">financial privacy</a>.</span></p>

<h5><strong>Crypto Owners vs. Non-Owners: A Different View</strong></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/?s=crypto+investors" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Crypto investors</a> have a different view of finances, privacy, and the monetary system. Non-investors may not get the point. They report greater confidence that tech companies and the U.S. government protect their money. As for crypto users, they do not have a problem with the government using data regarding their finances for security and regulatory purposes.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Crypto holders are more confident in other types of assets, including equities and fixed income. They trust in the development of these assets in the future, compared to the owners at a higher proportion. The same goes for their attitude toward crypto innovations. 78% of holders believe that such financial systems focus on a smaller number of bank branches but more on automated technologies. This will result in a fairer economy, while only 40% of non-investors are among those who think so.</span></p>

<h5><strong>Voting Intentions: Crypto Owners vs. Non-Owners</strong></h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Crypto investors and non-investors will vote during the 2024 election. 88% of these investors intend to vote, and respondents who do not own Crypto are 83%. Also, most respondents from both groups are already registered voters. Therefore, digital assets shift the issues voters consider when exercising the franchise.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Regarding political orientation, those who have never owned digital assets are more inclined to go to the right side. The remaining population also has different political opinions, where 32% of non-owners refer to themselves as conservatives, but only 24% of crypto owners do. However, 47%, based on many surveys of the crypto owners, said they had moderate political inclination.</span></p>
