"Our industry’s future is at stake, and we need to do everything in our power to elect pro-crypto candidates that will see sensible legislation brought to the floor", Samani added.
With the support of The Sentinel Action Fund, a political action committee, Multicoin Capital will support and elect crypto-friendly candidates to the U.S. Senate.
While clarifying his intent, Samani also said that political engagement matters in every field and to become free for innovation, America needs candidates supporting innovation and cryptocurrency. The Managing Partner at Multicoin Capital also encouraged the community to donate and promised to double the impact of the contribution by July 14.
In the end, Samani appreciated the SOL community and alarmed the donors to stay away from irrelevant links while donating.
