Odaily News A new poll by polling firm Harris Poll, funded by Grayscale, shows that more and more voters in the survey say they will seriously consider a candidate's knowledge and stance on cryptocurrency when considering who to vote for. Of more than 1,800 likely voters, 77% said presidential candidates should understand innovative technologies such as artificial intelligence and cryptocurrency. 56% said they are more likely to vote for a candidate who pays close attention to cryptocurrency issues. (Coindesk) The view of respondents is that Republicans (Trump's side) have a slight advantage over Democrats in supporting cryptocurrency investors, but this advantage is growing. In addition, the poll shows that more and more voters (slowly rising to 21%, or about one in five) hold some kind of cryptocurrency (usually Bitcoin) as an investment. In three voter sentiment snapshot surveys, people who bought cryptocurrencies increasingly said they did so because a financial advisor recommended it - in the latest poll, the proportion was 27%, which is 7 percentage points higher than the previous poll earlier this year.
