Nigel Farage’s Reform UK has received a combined $97 million from two cryptocurrency billionaires within a 24-hour period, according to CoinDesk. The donations match the largest individual political contributions recorded in U.K. history and represent a significant increase in financial support from the crypto industry. The fundraising boost places crypto-linked political giving at the center of attention as Reform UK expands its funding base. CoinDesk reported the donations on September 12, 2026. The source did not identify the donors in the supplied material or provide details on how the contributions will be used. The development is relevant to digital-asset market observers because it highlights the growing scale of crypto-sector involvement in U.K. political funding, though no direct effect on any cryptocurrency or related market asset was specified.
