I think that depends. An active participant in the Ethereum ecosystem probably has much more influence on Ethereum policy than a median US voter has on USD.



Possibly due to crypto still being niche and relegated to internet communities while the USD is the official currency of several countries, the largest having over 300 million people and trillions of dollars flowing through it per year.
