The Pennsylvania House has introduced a bill aimed at prohibiting public officials from trading Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies while in office. This legislative move seeks to address potential conflicts of interest and ensure transparency in financial dealings by those in public service. In other developments, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Acting Chairman Pham has announced a new crypto sprint initiative. This effort is designed to implement recommendations from the previous administration, focusing on enhancing regulatory frameworks for the cryptocurrency sector. Meanwhile, the Department of Justice's Matt Galeotti clarified that new charges under 1960(b)(1)(C) will not target "truly decentralized, peer-to-peer software" that operates without third-party custody, ensuring that decentralized platforms remain unaffected by these legal changes.
