Resolves "Yes" if there is credible reporting, or court documents, showing that Ben Delo (co-founder of BitMEX) has been sentenced to prison for any reason.
Resolves "No" if this does not happen by Jan 1st, 2030. Part of a large question series.
Question is global -- prison time in any country can count.
The imprisonment can be for any type of crime.
Being detained for a little while does not count, it must be a prison term.
Note that Delo pled guilty to breaking United States Bank Secrecy Act violations, and received a 30 month probation sentence and £10m fine. This would not count.

Definitely made me think twice about my own setup.
