Addison Mcdowell's campaign website highlights a specific focus on the issues page, Stand With Crypto Section:
"We must encourage innovation here in the United States. Unfortunately, the lack of regulatory clarity when it comes to digital assets risks forcing this new and promising technology overseas.

Jefferson Shreve's campaign website highlights a specific focus on the issues page, Make the U.S. a Leader in Digital Innovation.
"Congress and the Biden Administration have failed to prepare the U.S. for the growing digital economy. I’ll work to provide certainty and stability to the industry through clear and transparent regulation, so cryptocurrency innovation remains anchored on U.S. shores and Hoosiers can invest and transact with confidence.
I’ll pursue future-oriented, fiscally sound monetary policies, and work to avoid burdensome or unnecessary Security and Exchange Commission regulations concerning cryptocurrencies and other block-chain tools."
