Kamala Harris Is Not Directly Accepting Crypto Donations, a PAC Is, Coinbase Says

But, according to a Coinbase spokesperson, Haas was referring to the Future Forward USA PAC, not her campaign. “Coinbase can confirm that the Future Forward PAC has onboarded with Coinbase Commerce to accept crypto donations,” the spokesperson told CoinDesk.

While the Harris campaign isn’t taking crypto contributions directly, Future Forward USA, is a major source of support for Harris, and the development is, at minimum, possibly a signal that Democrats are warming to cryptocurrencies. Harris’ opponent in the presidential election, Donald Trump, has courted – and won – support from crypto fans and companies. The presidential administration in which Harris serves has been strongly criticized by the industry for what’s viewed as an anti-crypto stance.

Future Forward is a hybrid PAC, first used for President Joe Biden, that can contribute directly to the campaign or pay for independent advertising that’s not coordinated with Harris’ campaign. The Harris’ campaign website does not currently offer ways to donate in crypto, and advocacy group Crypto4Harris told Fortune that it was not aware of the development.
