Polish political dispute involving Sławomir Mentzen

Overview

Sławomir Mentzen, leader of the Konfederacja party, has entered a political dispute with Deputy Marshal of the Sejm Piotr Zgorzelski. Mentzen demanded a public apology from Zgorzelski following the latter’s claim on Polsat News that Mentzen had encouraged the purchase of bitcoins.

Mentzen rejected this characterization, providing video evidence from December 2025 to argue that he has consistently warned that cryptocurrency investments are highly risky, stating, ‘I am not encouraging anyone to invest in cryptocurrencies; it is your risk, your money.’ Reports indicate the disputed quote may have originated from a social media profile known as ‘Sok z Buraka.’
