Coinbase spokesperson: Harris did not directly accept cryptocurrency donations, but her PAC did

ChainCatcher news, a Coinbase spokesperson clarified on Wednesday that Harris's statement about "accepting cryptocurrency donations" was inaccurate. The spokesperson stated, "Coinbase can confirm that the lobbying organization Future Forward PAC has partnered with Coinbase Commerce to accept cryptocurrency donations." Harris's campaign website currently does not offer the option to donate via cryptocurrency.

Although Harris's campaign team does not directly accept cryptocurrency donations, Future Forward USA is a major source of support for Harris, and this development may at least signal the Democrats' growing interest in cryptocurrency.
