Crypto’s Getting Political (Booo!) but Coinbase and MoonPay Are Working to Balance the Scales

TL;DR

Full Story

MoonPay simply threw $1M into the Coinbase-initiated “Stand With Crypto” marketing campaign.

(Which goals to again bipartisan, crypto-friendly politicians in Congress to assist garner clearer crypto regulation within the US).

Which we’re all for!

…trigger truthfully, the truth that crypto is someway a partisan challenge? That feels bizarre.

And we all know what you’re considering:

“After all you’d say that — you’re crypto folks. It’s in your curiosity for it to have bipartisan assist.”

Which is true!

However right here’s our principle on why making crypto a partisan challenge is a large misstep:

We’ve met/seen/heard of a whooole bunch of individuals which are deeply apathetic to crypto, however only a few which are instantly anti-crypto.

In truth, most of them aren’t essentially anti-crypto, as a lot as they’re anti “having to pay attention to a different lecture on the byzantine common’s drawback, and the significance of exhausting currencies.”

And we get it! It’s boring as heck to hearken to when you’re not into it.

(We’ve had relations set clear ‘no crypto discuss on the dinner desk’ guidelines).

However going anti-crypto appears like a shedding technique, within the sense that there’re only a few folks within the US which are anti-crypto single challenge voters.

(Whereas there’re an entire bunch of pro-crypto single challenge voters).

So one other $1M in direction of a marketing campaign that goals to deliver some steadiness to the problem?

Bravo MoonPay, bravo.
