A crypto-aligned super political action committee is preparing to spend $5 million to support Representative Barry Moore in his bid for the US Senate, according to a recent report. The funding will come from Defend American Jobs, an affiliate of Fairshake, one of the most prominent crypto-focused PACs in the United States.
The five-week advertising campaign is expected to roll out on broadcast television and cable networks, including Fox News Channel. The ads will reportedly feature an endorsement from former President Donald Trump, positioning Moore as a candidate aligned with pro-crypto economic policies.
Super PACs are permitted to raise unlimited funds from corporations and associations but are barred from coordinating directly with political campaigns. Instead, they spend independently on advertising and voter outreach efforts.
Crypto Political Spending and 2024 Election Impact
Fairshake played a major role in the 2024 election cycle, spending approximately $130 million to back candidates supportive of digital asset innovation. The group disclosed earlier this year that it holds $193 million in cash ahead of upcoming midterm contests.
Moore, first elected to the House in 2020, has been labeled “strongly supportive” of cryptocurrency by advocacy group Stand With Crypto. With primary elections scheduled for May and the general election set for Nov. 3, crypto-backed political spending is expected to remain a significant force in shaping policy debates.
