A UK lawmaker has asked the financial authorities to investigate Nigel Farage’s promotion of a Bitcoin (BTC) treasury firm, raising concerns about potential market abuse and conflicts of interest due to the politician’s potential ties to the crypto industry.

Farage’s Stack BTC Video Prompts Scrutiny
On Monday, UK Liberal Democrat deputy leader Daisy Cooper asked the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) CEO, Nikhil Rathi, to investigate Reform UK leader and Member of Parliament (MP) Nigel Farage over his ties to the crypto industry.

In the letter, the lawmaker highlighted Farage’s recent appearance in a promotional video for crypto treasury firm Stack BTC, in which he is also an investor, showing him purchasing roughly £2 million in Bitcoin.

As reported by Bitcoinist, the Reform UK leader bought 37 BTC, worth around $2.7 million, on Monday on behalf of the company, becoming the first sitting British MP and party leader to publicly back Bitcoin, Stack BTC noted.

Despite the triumph for crypto in British Politics, Cooper considers that Farage’s Bitcoin promotion, alongside his repeated support for digital assets, “raises extremely serious questions about potential market abuse, a conflict of interest, and exposure of ordinary people to financial harm.”

The lawmaker highlighted Farage’s campaigns to expand the use of digital assets in the UK, including establishing a Bitcoin reserve fund, reducing capital gains tax on crypto assets from 24% to 10%, and enacting legal safeguards to prevent banks from terminating accounts associated with digital currency transactions.

“Taken together, these facts beg the question whether Mr Farage is promoting cryptocurrencies through his political platform in order to inflate crypto values for his own financial benefit, as well as that of his party and his inner circle of donors,” Cooper argued.

She emphasized that “owning and trading cryptocurrencies is a perfectly legitimat

Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure Ethereum is pushing above $2,300 as the market recovers from weeks of compressed price action, with buyers gradually reasserting control after an extended period of consolidation near the $2,000 level. The move higher comes as underlying on-chain data begins to paint a more constructive picture — one that suggests the recent weakness may have been quietly working in Ethereum’s favor rather than against it.Related Reading: Ethereum Exchange Supply Has Dropped 57% From Its Peak: Holders Refuse To ExitAccording to a CryptoQuant report, a significant divergence has been developing beneath the surface. While price remained range-bound near $2,000, realized capitalization held by accumulating addresses continued to expand — a signal that long-term demand was absorbing available supply during the weakness rather than retreating from it. Coins were consistently moving into wallets with low historical spending behavior, the kind of addresses that tend to hold through volatility rather than react to it. Ethereum Realized Cap Held by Accumulating Addresses | Source: CryptoQuantThis pattern became especially visible following the April 2025 drawdown and the consolidation that followed. Rather than triggering distribution, the price volatility appeared to accelerate accumulation among conviction-driven participants. Stronger hands were increasing exposure precisely when the market looked least inviting.That dynamic matters now because Ethereum is trading above $2,300. If the capital structure that formed during the consolidation is as durable as the on-chain data suggests, the current move may have a foundation that previous bounces lacked. Supply Is Quietly Moving Into Stronger Hands The inflow data reinforces what the accumulation signals have been suggesting. During the

@PixelsMost crypto games try to buy attention with rewards—but attention rarely stays where meaning is missing. Pixels feels like a quieter experiment, where value isn’t forced but slowly grows through play.
It doesn’t rush players toward profit. You farm, explore, trade—and over time, these simple actions start to matter. Even the PIXEL Token feels less like the purpose and more like a result of being in the system.
The real question isn’t how much you can earn, but whether the world gives you a reason to stay. And that’s something most Web3 games still haven’t figured out.

Crypto analyst Ted Pillows has drawn attention to the Solana treasury companies, which appear to be struggling more than the Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP treasury companies. This comes amid the crypto market downtrend, with SOL suffering the largest drawdown among these coins.

Solana Treasuries Struggling Worse Than Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP Treasuries
In an X post, Ted Pillows stated that Solana treasury companies are looking like “Solana memecoins.” He noted that they are already down 80% to 90%, but could go lower before the bottom. Notably, the Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP treasury companies have shown greater strength than these Solana treasuries.

Ted Pillows highlighted the stock performance of the Solana treasury companies, Forward Industries, Sol Strategies, Sharps Technology, and DeFi Development Corporation (DFDV). Forward Industries, which is the largest Solana treasury, has seen its FWDI stock fall from a high above $40 last year to as low as $4. The stock is currently down over 80% in the last six months.

It is worth noting that Solana has suffered a larger crash than Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP from their October 2025 peaks, which could explain why the Solana treasury companies have suffered larger crashes than the BTC, ETH, and XRP treasury companies. The SOL price is down almost 55% in the last six months, while BTC, ETH, and XRP are down less than 50% in the same period.

Commenting on Ethereum treasury companies, Ted Pillows noted that they are showing some strength at the moment. However, he warned that this doesn’t mean that they have bottomed out, but that they could bring some buying pressure into ETH. The analyst added that after that, both ETH and treasury companies will go to new lows. Tom Lee’s Bitmine is currently the largest Ethereum treasury company and has seen its BMNR stock fall 60% in the last six months.
