Former Republican congresswoman and current Bitcoin holder Cynthia Lummis has won a seat in the U.S. Senate against Democratic challenger Merav Ben-David.
According to a Nov. 4 report from Fortune, Lummis was an early adopter of Bitcoin (BTC), having first purchased the cryptocurrency in 2013 thanks to a tip from her son in law, Will Cole. Cole has served as the chief product officer at blockchain financial services firm Unchained Capital since December 2019.
