According to Reuters, companies and billionaires from emerging industries like cryptocurrency, artificial intelligence (AI), and prediction platforms are becoming the core funding forces for the 2026 U.S. midterm elections, breaking the traditional dominance of Wall Street, pharmaceutical, and energy giants in political donations. Data from the nonprofit watchdog organization Public Citizen shows that in the 15 months leading up to the end of Q1 this year, U.S. corporations have poured a record-breaking $517 million into congressional campaigns, surpassing the total for the entire 2024 election cycle. Of this, crypto, tech, and prediction platforms contributed at least $294 million. https://www.(wublock123.com)/news/news-66878
