The Digital Chamber launched its State Network to boost pro-crypto policies and candidates at state and local levels before the 2026 midterms.

Summary

Crypto advocacy group The Digital Chamber has launched a new State Network to increase its influence on digital asset policies at the state and local government levels, particularly ahead of the 2026 midterms. CEO Cody Carbone stated that while federal crypto regulation is advancing, a unified voice is missing at the state level, which is crucial for the U.S. to become the global crypto capital. The group aims to elect pro-crypto candidates at every level of government, emphasizing that influence extends beyond Washington D.C. Education will be central to the network's strategy, addressing the growing interest from states noticing the federal debate. The State Network is also partnering with the nonpartisan Future Caucus to support young elected officials and announced a 2026 pilot grants program for university blockchain clubs and state advocacy groups.
