Winklevoss twins commit $21 million to new crypto-focused super PAC

Cryptocurrency billionaires Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss have announced a substantial $21 million investment into a newly formed super PAC, marking a significant escalation in their efforts to shape the United States’ political landscape around digital asset policies, according to Politico.

The newly established Digital Freedom Fund PAC will expressly support conservative candidates who align with US President Donald Trump’s crypto agenda, signalling a deliberate shift towards influencing the 2026 midterm elections.

In a public statement on the social media platform X, Tyler Winklevoss outlined the group’s mission, stating it “will identify and support champions of President Trump’s crypto agenda in primary races and the midterm elections”.

He further emphasised the high stakes, warning that if Republicans lose their congressional majorities, “Democrats will have power to slow down and interfere with” Trump’s policy objectives.

This move represents a notable departure from the twins’ previous support for the bipartisan Fairshake super PAC, to which they donated millions during the 2024 election cycle.

The Winklevoss’s new super PAC, which registered with the Federal Election Commission last month, has not yet been required to disclose its full donor list, leaving open the possibility of additional contributors beyond the twins’ $21 million commitment.
