Anderson Campaign: Libertarian U.S. Senate candidate accepts cryptocurrency donations

Middleton, WI –  Phil Anderson, Libertarian candidate for the United States Senate in Wisconsin, is again receiving donations of cryptocurrency.

“I embrace new technology, and always have,” says Anderson. “Cryptocurrencies are a way to conduct business without the risk of the government-caused inflation and the devaluation of your dollars.”

Anderson’s 2018 Wisconsin gubernatorial campaign accepted donations in Bitcoin, despite confusing WI statutes regarding cryptocurrency donations. The campaign is using EngageRaise, a well-regarded, reliable platform for receiving and reporting donations.

“The Wisconsin Legislature never clarified this issue, but that’s not my problem. Candidates from Rand Paul to now Ted Cruz are accepting crypto, and financial institutions, along with the SEC, are getting on board,” continues Anderson. “In this case, the people are leading and the government is following. As the federal reserve continues to fail us and devalue the dollar, we won’t be told whether we can trade in crypto and neither should you.”

EngageRaise facilitates donations on the Ethereum network only. The campaign plans to add another platform to receive donations in Bitcoin, and other cryptocurrencies in the near future.
