Blockchain Leadership Fund Launches to Advance U.S. Leadership in Digital Assets
Anchorage Digital and Chainlink Labs Join as Founding Contributors
WASHINGTON, DC (March 30, 2026) -- Blockchain Leadership Fund (BLF), a newly formed political action committee, was launched by industry leaders in the digital asset sector, including members of The Digital Chamber, to support candidates working to advance digital asset and blockchain policy in the United States.
As Congress continues working through a decisive phase on digital asset legislation, the United States is poised to lead the next generation of financial infrastructure innovation. BLF is structured as a hybrid PAC, enabling both direct candidate contributions and independent expenditures. The Fund will engage across federal, state, and local races to support policymakers focused on advancing clear, durable, and innovation-forward digital asset policy.
The effort is backed by early industry support, with Anchorage Digital and Chainlink Labs joining as founding contributors to help advance a more coordinated approach to digital asset policy and political engagement.
"Crypto policy is being written right now and the companies that show up and engage will help define the rules of the road; the ones that don’t will inherit them,” said an Anchorage Digital spokesperson. “At Anchorage Digital, we’ve always believed that responsible innovation requires active participation, which is why we’re proud to support the Blockchain Leadership Fund at such a pivotal moment for the industry.”
“The legislative path for digital assets is clearer than it’s been in years, yet still fragile,” said a Chainlink Spokesperson. “The market structure bill is where the real complexity lives, and the candidates willing to work through that complexity deserve sustained, organized support from the industry. That’s what the Blockchain Leadership Fund is built to do. Chainlink’s institutional partners are already building on blockchain infrastructure, and BLF is ensuring the policy environment can scale that adoption with the clarity and momentum the industry requires.”
BLF reflects a long-term commitment to establishing thoughtful regulation that protects consumers while bolstering U.S. leadership in financial innovation.
