About the American Blockchain PAC

The American Blockchain PAC is an independent nonprofit committee of American citizens. We are the spearhead of political support for the Blockchain and virtual asset industries at the Federal level in the United States. Regulatory clarity brings investor confidence and provides protection for continued innovation. However, regulatory overreach is one of the leading threats to the virtual asset industry, and the current legislative posture is one of purposeless policy-making through enforcement.

Contributions to the American Blockchain PAC directly support Congressional representatives whose legislative agenda is aligned with the best interests of digital asset technology and who will deliver meaningful results. Without this crucial financial support, these elected representatives are unable to fight the battles that need to be won if the American digital asset industry is to survive and thrive.
