AsianFin -- Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss have contributed more than $21 million in Bitcoin to launch a new political action committee aimed at boosting Republican candidates and advancing former President Donald Trump’s cryptocurrency agenda.

The twins said Wednesday the Digital Freedom Fund will focus on defeating Democrats in the 2026 midterm elections and backing GOP candidates who support pro-crypto policies.

“We will identify and support champions of President Trump’s crypto agenda in primary races and the midterms,” Tyler Winklevoss said. “If Republicans lose control of either chamber, Democrats will be able to slow or obstruct Trump’s plans.”

The initial donation amounts to 188.45 BTC, valued at about $21.5 million.
