Stand With Crypto Mobilizes Over 1 Million Advocates, Intensifying Push for Clear Crypto Regulation

Coinbase, a prominent cryptocurrency exchange, recently underscored its commitment to advocating for the digital asset industry by highlighting the growing influence of the Stand With Crypto Alliance. On August 13, 2025, Coinbase's official social media account stated, > "Just followed a bunch of people rocking the @standwithcrypto logo. 🛡️" This post signifies the continued collaboration between the exchange and the advocacy group, which aims to shape regulatory landscapes.

The Stand With Crypto Alliance, launched in August 2023 with backing from Coinbase, operates as a 501(c)(4) nonprofit organization. Its core mission is to mobilize the estimated 52 million American cryptocurrency owners into a unified voice within the legislative process. The alliance advocates for common-sense regulations that foster innovation, protect consumer rights, and modernize the financial system, striving to prevent the exodus of crypto innovation and jobs from the United States.

By June 2024, the alliance announced it had surpassed one million online sign-ups, demonstrating significant grassroots support. This mobilization translates into substantial political influence, with crypto corporations and affiliated super PACs, including those supported by Stand With Crypto, contributing over $130 million to federal election campaigns in the 2024 cycle. These efforts have reportedly led to the election of a "most pro-crypto Congress," with 274 pro-crypto candidates securing seats in the House and 20 in the Senate. The group continues to lobby for comprehensive legislation, such as a clear market structure bill for digital assets.

Beyond its impactful presence in the U.S., Stand With Crypto has expanded its advocacy efforts internationally, notably launching initiatives in Canada in July 2024 and extending its reach to the United Kingdom. This global expansion reflects a broader industry-wide push for regulatory clarity and supportive policies worldwide. The alliance emphasizes that a well-defined regulatory framework is crucial for unlocking crypto's full innovation potential and ensuring economic freedom, positioning digital assets as a key driver of future economic growth.
