A former Tether backer just dropped a massive £9.3M ($11.4M) on Reform UK — marking Britain's largest-ever single political donation on record. This eye-popping sum highlights how crypto wealth is increasingly shaping political landscapes beyond traditional finance circles. The move raises questions about regulatory influence and whether digital asset profits are becoming kingmakers in Westminster politics. Either way, it's a sign that crypto money isn't just disrupting markets — it's rewriting the rules of political funding too.

Damn, this is straight-up bribery. Are the regulators asleep or what?
Here we go again—money can buy politics. Crypto really winning big...
So, crypto whales are buying politicians now? What’s next, buying countries? LOL
What does this money actually buy... Feels kinda worth it though.
WTF, I’m still getting rekt as a pleb and these guys are already playing 4D chess with politics.
