Crypto And AI Super PACs Raised $249 Million For 2026 Midterms
One operative, Josh Vlasto, runs both funds, fed by Ripple's $48.5 million and Andreessen Horowitz's $50 million.
- Fairshake collected $82.6 million from crypto firms, led by Ripple's $48.5 million and Coinbase's $33 million.
- Leading the Future raised $50.1 million for AI, with Andreessen Horowitz alone giving $50 million.
- Josh Vlasto, once Schumer and Cuomo's aide, co-leads both super PACs steering the money.
Why it matters: Whoever pays for a lawmaker's campaign decides what that lawmaker will do in office.
