英国加密货币亿万富翁向改革英国党捐赠创纪录3600万英镑

英国加密货币亿万富翁本·德洛向改革英国党捐赠3600万英镑，创下英国政治捐款历史纪录 1。这笔捐款远超该党此前获得的最大单笔捐款1500万英镑 1。德洛自今年年初以来已累计向改革英国党捐赠800万英镑，此次巨额捐款将其总贡献推至新的高度 1。

德洛曾因其加密货币交易平台BitMEX未能实施充分的反洗钱控制而在美国被判有罪，后被特朗普赦免 1。这笔创纪录的政治捐款引发英国工党议员的担忧 1。工党议员斯特拉·克里西表示："这笔捐款比工党在大选中的全部支出还多，说明我们必须采取行动" 1。目前，英国对海外捐赠者的限制规定为需在英国居住12个月才能捐赠超过10万英镑 1。

British cryptocurrency billionaire Ben Delo has donated £36 million to Reform UK, marking the largest single political donation in British history 1. This contribution far exceeds the party's previous record donation of £15 million and surpasses the entire campaign expenditure of the Labour Party during the general election 1.

Delo, who has already contributed £8 million to Reform UK since the beginning of this year, was convicted in the United States in 2022 for insufficient anti-money laundering controls at the cryptocurrency trading platform BitMEX, though he was later pardoned by Donald Trump 1. The unprecedented donation has prompted concern among Labour lawmakers about the political funding system. MP Stella Creasy stated that "this donation is larger than everything Labour spent during the entire general election campaign, which shows we must take action" 1. Current UK regulations require overseas donors to have resided in the country for at least 12 months before they can contribute more than £100,000 1.
