Barry Moore’s win in Alabama’s Republican Senate primary runoff delivered a major boost to the cryptocurrency industry’s political spending network, which invested more in his campaign than in any other congressional race this cycle.

Crypto super PAC Fairshake and its affiliates poured over $12 million into supporting Moore, helping him defeat former Navy SEAL Jared Hudson in Tuesday’s runoff after he failed to clear the 50% threshold in May’s primary and was forced into a second round.

The outcome strengthens the crypto industry’s broader push to elect pro-digital asset lawmakers in Congress. Moore, a strong supporter of President Donald Trump, has consistently backed major crypto-related legislation during his time in the House and is now considered a strong favorite heading into Alabama’s general election, given the state’s Republican lean.

Fairshake described the result as another sign of its growing political reach. The group, the largest crypto-aligned political action committee, still has roughly $150 million in available funds to deploy in upcoming races, according to spokesperson Geoff Vetter.

Moore’s victory follows a setback for the PAC in Illinois, where it spent more than $10 million opposing Democratic candidate Juliana Stratton, who still won her primary. Despite that loss, Fairshake has maintained a strong overall success rate in primary contests nationwide.

Moore is running to replace Senator Tommy Tuberville, who left the seat open to pursue a gubernatorial bid. He also received backing from Fellowship PAC, another crypto-affiliated political group.

Elsewhere, Fairshake spent about $735,000 supporting Representative Kevin Hern in Oklahoma’s Republican Senate primary, where he also secured the nomination after receiving an endorsement from Donald Trump.

Backed by major crypto firms including Coinbase, a16z Crypto, and Ripple, Fairshake entered the 2026 election cycle with nearly $193 million in funds. Rather than directly promoting crypto policy positions, the group primarily funds independent advertising focused on candidates’ broader political appeal.

The results underscore the growing influence of crypto-aligned political spending in U.S. elections, with an expanding slate of candidates advancing through the 2026 cycle.
