英国議会委員会の議長は暗号通貨の政治献金禁止を呼びかける
ChainCatcher News: According to The Block, seven UK parliamentary committee chairs have jointly written to the government urging a comprehensive ban on cryptocurrency political donations in the forthcoming Elections Bill. Trade and Industry Committee Chair Liam Byrne and others argue that cryptocurrency donations could undermine the transparency and traceability of political funding, and expose British politics to risks of foreign interference.
The move increases pressure on the Labour government, which acknowledges that cryptocurrency donations pose risks to electoral integrity but may not include the measure in the bill in the short term due to implementation complexity. Reform UK became the first UK political party to accept Bitcoin donations last year, with its leader Nigel Farage positioning the move as part of a broader "crypto revolution."
