Coinbase to educate users on policies held by local politicians with new app integration

On September 14, Coinbase co-founder and CEO Brian Armstrong announced the company's plans to integrate crypto policy efforts into its app. According to him, this will help the company's 103 million verified users know where their local political leaders and representatives stand when it comes to cryptocurrency.

Coinbase will rely on some data compiled by the Crypto Action Network, a 501(c)(4) organization dedicated to the growth and safety of cryptocurrencies. Specifically, Coinbase will use a scorecard put together by the Crypto Action Network, which grades each member of Congress on their positions on crypto issues, based on their publicly recorded statements and actions on crypto policy.
