Reform UK leader Farage says crypto donations have begun

"It's much easier to move money across borders into the UK to support political parties using crypto than via the banking system," said Tom Keatinge, director of the security-focused think tank RUSI. UK law prohibits foreign funding of political organisations. Keatinge also said that AI tools can create multiple crypto wallets to make donations that fall below reporting thresholds, something far harder to replicate via banks.
