Are Democrats Against Crypto? These Two Congressional Candidates Say No - Ep.316

Shrina Kurani, a Democrat running for a House seat in California, and Morgan Harper, a Democratic candidate running to represent Ohio in the US Senate, explain why they are running pro-crypto campaigns. They discuss how crypto will affect the 2022 midterms, justify being both pro-crypto and pro-environment, and talk about the importance of educating regulators about Web3. On this episode of Unchained, they highlight:
how Morgan’s work at the American Economic Liberties Project and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau led her to run for Senate on a pro-crypto platform
why Shrina chose to mint NFTs on Solana to help fundraise for her campaign
what issues Morgan and Shrina have with the current financial system (and how they believe crypto could help solve such issues)
why both Shrina and Morgan stress that education is the key to making effective crypto policy in the US
what message Shrina and Morgan want to send to fellow Democrats about the crypto industry
why Morgan believes that single-issue voting for crypto candidates could be dangerous
