Fairshake is a political action committee funded by the cryptocurrency industry that supported candidates in the 2024 United States elections.[1][2][3][4] Major contributors include Coinbase, Ripple, and Andreessen Horowitz.[5]
The Hill reported that more than $10 million of the super PAC's spending went toward opposing the California Democratic Senate primary bid of Katie Porter, who lost in the March 2024 primary.[6]
As of June 2024, CNBC reported that Fairshake had backed the winning candidate in 33 of the 35 House and Senate primary races it had entered.[7]
Following the 2024 presidential election, Brad Garlinghouse, CEO of Ripple Labs, claimed that the creation of Fairshake and other legislative efforts around cryptocurrency regulation are a reaction to the federal government's "War on Crypto."[8]
