Crypto entrepreneur pardoned by Trump donates £36 million to Farage's Reform UK
Sept 11 - Crypto investor Ben Delo, co-founder of BitMEX, has granted a substantial £36 million ($48.7 million) donation to Britain's populist Reform UK party. This financial contribution provides a significant boost to Nigel Farage's party as it targets the next UK election to challenge the dominant political parties. Delo, who was convicted of a banking secrecy violation in the U.S. and subsequently pardoned by former President Donald Trump, had already been Reform UK's largest donor with a £4 million contribution in the previous quarter. The news of this major donation was disclosed by Reform UK on Friday.
