The interplay of money and politics in the US is real, and well established. And that includes when that money is either in the form of crypto, or comes from people who made their fortunes in digital assets.

The recently concluded US Midterm Elections featured several candidates - including winning ones - whose campaigns were financed in part by crypto-related donors and donations. Among those donors: Sam Bankman-Fried and Ryan Salame of FTX, who supported candidates on opposite ends of the political spectrum. The collapse of FTX has led to some politicians and lawmakers who received from these donations now attempting to distance themselves entirely from their benefactors.

For more on the state of crypto money and politics in the US, Bloomberg reporters Bill Allison and Allyson Versprille join this episode.

Crypto is the world's hottest financial trend. Digital tokens like Bitcoin and NFTs have moved from niche products to showing up in Super Bowl commercials and song lyrics. Advocates of these new asset classes promise they will democratize the finance industry, and they hail the blockchain technology that backs it all as the future of computing. Skeptics say it's another financial house of cards. No newsroom on the planet is better equipped than Bloomberg to cut through all the noise and provide clarity, context and authority.

In this new daily podcast, Bloomberg’s reporting team will tease out what’s actually important in the crypto conversation. Led by crypto expert Stacy-Marie Ishmael, the podcast will draw on reporters in every region and credible voices in the industry to cover everything from regulation to alt coins to DeFi, and even the environmental impact of the currency that promises to change the finance landscape indefinitely.
