Fairshake is a political action committee funded by the cryptocurrency industry that supports candidates in the 2024 American elections. Major contributors include Coinbase, Ripple, and Andreessen Horowitz.

The Hill reported that more than $10 million of the super PAC's spending went toward opposing the California Democratic Senate primary bid of Katie Porter, who lost in the March 2024 primary.

As of June 2024, CNBC reported that Fairshake had backed the winning candidate in 33 of the 35 House and Senate primary races it had entered.
