PAC
In August 2014, political news site The Hill reported that the Chamber had registered a political action committee with the United States Federal Election Commission. As The Hill piece noted, “formation of the PAC is a sign of increasing maturity for Bitcoin and a signal that politicians could face political pressure to support virtual [sic] currencies.” To date, however, the PAC has only raised $10,000 of which only $2,700 have been contributed to a candidate.
