Legislative steps we're taught in civics class are only a small part of what it takes for a bill to become a law. The process of strategy negotiations and long-term thinking for future industries is complex. In addition to balancing huge agendas, lawmakers and their teams have to navigate a complex regulatory environment, all while paying attention to polling data. According to a recent study by the Crypto Council for Innovation, those who own crypto will vote for candidates who support crypto.
