The largest 3rd party in the country (according to polls) is talking about accepting donations that can’t be traced by regulators like the Elections Commission. They’ve already been associated with a lot of US dark money who would love something like this to get around donation limits. This is definitely newsworthy.
On Thursday the Reform website was updated to accept cryptocurrency donations. There was a disclaimer stating that all donations were subject to Electoral Commission rules and that anonymous donations were not permissible.
They don’t accept anonymous donations. So that doesn’t appear to be a concern at least.
It’ll be interesting to see how they enforce that. The Electoral Commission will have quite a time tracing all the Bitcoin transactions that go to that address.
