“Revealed: The $14M mystery behind a new crypto super PAC”

Politico:

The billionaire founder of a global crypto exchange made an anonymous $14 million contribution to a super PAC. Only it wasn’t anonymous. And it wasn’t $14 million.

Protect Our Future — a super PAC that’s spent millions supporting candidates “who take a long term view on policy planning” — disclosed $14 million in contributions from the Nevada-based fintech Prime Trust LLC in its quarterly filing on Friday.

After POLITICO reported that Prime Trust was the source of the funds — as reflected in the super PAC’s filing with the Federal Election Commission — a spokesperson for Prime Trust reached out to say that the money wasn’t actually from the company.
