TREE NEWS update: A political action committee launched by Gemini co-founders Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss has made its first foray into the Texas Senate race with an $81,000 ad buy. The move comes as crypto-aligned PACs ramp up spending in states including Ohio ahead of the 2026 midterms. The committee’s entry into Texas signals widening crypto political engagement beyond traditional battlegrounds.
Winklevoss PAC Spends $81K on Ads in Texas Senate Race
The Winklevoss-backed PAC's first Texas buy is less about the dollar figure than about geography: crypto money is testing whether it can shape a statewide Senate contest, not just familiar battlegrounds. That matters for candidates who now face crypto as a live campaign issue and for the industry's effort to convert fundraising into legislative influence. Whether the committee expands beyond an initial ad buy in Texas, and how other crypto-aligned PACs pace their spending across states ahead of the midterms, is the open question worth tracking.
