What Happened

Sentinel Action Fund, backed by Solana Policy Institute, committed $8 million to support Jon Husted against Democrat Sherrod Brown in Ohio's 2024 Senate race. Brown, former Senate Banking Committee chairman, opposes crypto-friendly policies. Sentinel is funded by Solana Institute, Multicoin Capital, and wealthy investors including Blackstone CEO Stephen Schwarzman and billionaire Paul Singer. Recent polls show the race competitive. Crypto PACs including Fairshake also support pro-digital asset candidates.
