$2.7M Bitcoin Buy: Politician-Backed Stack BTC Expands Treasury

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage has become the first sitting British MP and party leader to publicly endorse Bitcoin. Stack BTC, a company chaired by former UK Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng, purchased 37 Bitcoin for approximately $2.7 million, bringing its total holdings to 68.19 BTC. The firm allows UK investors to gain crypto exposure through public markets. Farage holds a 6.31% stake in the company. This move comes amid scrutiny over Reform UK receiving around $18 million in crypto-linked donations last year, prompting proposed government bans on such contributions. Farage’s investment marks a significant moment for Bitcoin in UK politics.

UK Moves To Shut Down Crypto Exchange Tied To Iran’s Military

A UK-registered cryptocurrency exchange, Zedxion, is being shut down after a TRM Labs investigation revealed that nearly 90% of its 2024 transactions, totaling around $1 billion, were linked to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). The UK’s Companies House initiated a compulsory strike-off after discovering the firm filed false information, including a fictitious director named Elizabeth Newman, whose image was traced to a stock photo. The previous director was linked to Babak Zanjani, an Iranian businessman previously sentenced for corruption. The action follows US sanctions imposed in January against Zedxion and a related platform, Zedcex, for supporting the IRGC.

Crypto Donations Branded ‘Dangerous’? UK Security Panel Urges Immediate Ban

A UK National Security Panel has called for an immediate ban on political donations made with cryptocurrency, labeling them an "unnecessary and unacceptably high risk" to the integrity of the political finance system. The cross-party committee warns that crypto donations create a "gaping hole" in national security defenses, making it difficult to verify donors due to pseudonymous wallets, mixers, and foreign payment processors. The report urges stricter donor-identity checks, wealth-source verification, and a single-agency lead for enforcement to prevent foreign interference and illicit finance. Proposed rules would require donations to go through FCA-registered platforms, prohibit mixed coins, and mandate conversion to pounds within 48 hours. This is framed as a national security measure, not a blanket attack on crypto.

Crypto Donations Under Spotlight in the UK

Crypto donations are under scrutiny in the UK, with a cross-party committee proposing a ban to protect the integrity of the political system. Reform UK is the only party reported to have received such donations. The proposed measures include requiring donors to have UK assets registered for 12 months and creating a police unit to oversee political finance. Committee Chair Matt Western warned that foreign financial influence is "corrosive." A temporary ban could particularly impact Reform UK, which has faced criticism for not sharing crypto wallet addresses, hindering transparency. The situation highlights concerns about unregulated currencies in political funding.

Former UK Prime Minister Calls Bitcoin A ‘Giant Ponzi Scheme’, Strategy’s Saylor Replies

Former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson labeled Bitcoin a "giant Ponzi scheme" in a Daily Mail column, arguing it lacks intrinsic value and real-world utility, operates on the "greater fool" theory, and is riskier than traditional assets like gold or even Pokémon cards. He also expressed concerns about crypto fraud impacting ordinary investors. In response, MicroStrategy’s Michael Saylor refuted the claim, stating Bitcoin has no central operator or promised returns, distinguishing it from a Ponzi scheme. He described Bitcoin as a decentralized network driven by code and market demand. BTC was trading around $70,590 at the time of writing.

Bank Of England Open To Review Stablecoin Ownership Cap Proposal Following Backlash

The Bank of England (BoE) has indicated it is open to revising its proposed regulations for systemic pound-pegged stablecoins following significant backlash from lawmakers and industry leaders. Deputy Governor Sarah Breeden stated the central bank is considering alternatives to its controversial proposals, which include temporary ownership caps of £10,000-£20,000 for individuals and £10 million for businesses, and a requirement for issuers to hold at least 40% of reserves as deposits at the BoE. Industry figures argued the caps are too restrictive and administratively burdensome, potentially damaging the UK's ambition to be a digital asset hub. The BoE plans to release draft rules for consultation in June and finalize them by year-end.

UK Reform Party Races Ahead Through Crypto Donations

The UK Reform Party, led by Nigel Farage, has become the first British political party to accept cryptocurrency donations, receiving a significant £3 million in crypto from British-Thai businessman Christopher Harborne in Q4 2025. This brought the party's total donations to £5.5 million, surpassing both the Conservative and Labour parties. While Farage promotes this move to position the UK as a global crypto hub, parliament members have raised concerns about potential foreign interference and the volatility of digital assets, citing past bribery convictions linked to the party. Some are calling for a ban on such donations. Chancellor Rachel Reeves has committed to regulating crypto like traditional finance. Harborne, a repeat donor, had previously given £9 million in August 2025. The Reform Party remains the only UK party accepting crypto, and Farage has pledged to pass pro-crypto legislation if elected.

X Allows Paid Crypto Promotions but Restricts Ads in EU and UK

X has updated its advertising policy to allow paid crypto promotions through its official partnership programs, requiring clear labeling for transparency. However, the platform maintains restrictions on non-partnership crypto ads to prevent spam and misleading content. This move aligns X with other social networks that permit regulated crypto advertising, emphasizing compliance with legal and platform standards. Industry analysts believe this could boost visibility for legitimate crypto projects and influence marketing strategies, though regulatory compliance remains crucial. The policy does not permit unsolicited promotions, balancing openness with controls.

Crypto At The Casino? UK Weighs Letting Online Bettors Pay With Digital Currency

British gamblers seeking to use cryptocurrency are often directed to illegal websites, a key reason the UK Gambling Commission is considering allowing licensed online platforms to accept crypto payments. Tim Miller, the Commission's executive director, stated that crypto is a top search term leading users to unregulated sites, suggesting that blocking it on legal platforms may push consumers toward riskier alternatives. The review, with no set deadline, will be conducted alongside the Financial Conduct Authority's new crypto oversight framework, expected in 2027. Strict conditions, including affordability checks and full regulatory compliance, would still apply to any crypto transactions.
