UK lawmakers are pushing to ban political donations made in cryptocurrency over fears of foreign interference.

They argue that cryptocurrency's opacity and traceability issues make it a threat to democratic integrity, citing an intelligence report on election interference.

Those pressing for a ban say the concerns stem from the report; the source material does not specify what legislative steps will follow or how the government might respond.
