Trump’s Pro-Crypto PAC Gets $21 Million Bitcoin Donation From Billionaire Founders

Donald Trump’s new pro-crypto political action committee has received a very large Bitcoin donation that could help shape the future of digital assets in America. Billionaire twins Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, who are best known as the founders of the Gemini crypto exchange, announced on Wednesday that they donated $21 million in Bitcoin to the group called the Digital Freedom Fund.

Winklevoss Twins Back Trump With $21M Bitcoin Donation

Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss said they made the donation because they believe Trump has already taken real steps to bring digital assets into the mainstream, and they want to help him keep that momentum. Tyler Winklevoss explained that the president has been able to move quickly on his agenda because of the support he receives from the Republican-controlled Congress, and he added that it is important to protect that support when voters head into the midterm elections in 2026.

The Digital Freedom Fund movement aims to preserve what it terms “America’s Golden Age”. For the twins, this means giving Trump the tools to finish his push for stronger crypto reforms . Although the PAC’s website has not yet updated its records to show the $21 million donation, the announcement is already being seen as one of the biggest signs yet that major crypto leaders are ready to get directly involved in politics to shape the rules that will govern the industry.

PAC’s Agenda: Pro-Crypto Laws And CBDC Ban

The Digital Freedom Fund has outlined a comprehensive plan that focuses on supporting senators and House members who will pass laws that make it easier for crypto companies and users to grow without excessive restrictions. The PAC has also promised to fight for a “Skinny Market Structure Bill” that would limit regulators’ power over crypto markets while protecting the rights of developers, publishers, and users to build and transact freely.

As part of this plan, the PAC wants to put forward a “crypto bill of rights” that would clearly state that Americans should always have the freedom to own Bitcoin and other digital currencies, to keep them safe in their wallets, and to use them in everyday transactions without the fear of being punished, which has been a primary concern in past cases such as those involving the Tornado Cash developers and the Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht.

Although the House of Representatives passed a bill in July to block the Federal Reserve from moving forward with a CBDC, the bill is still waiting in the Senate, and the PAC says it will keep fighting until a full ban is in place. With Trump’s leadership and the new funding from the Winklevoss twins, the Digital Freedom Fund is preparing to utilize its resources to shape the 2026 midterm elections and maintain the U.S. on a pro-crypto path.
