White House Delays Vote on Brian Quintenz’s Nomination for CFTC Chair

According to a report by Jinse Finance, crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett revealed on the X platform that the White House has postponed the vote on Brian Quintenz's nomination for CFTC Chairman, with much speculation circulating within Washington, D.C. Some suggest the delay is due to concerns over vote counting, while others point to lobbying efforts by the American Gaming Association (AGA) regarding Brian Quintenz's support for prediction markets. There are also those who believe that unease expressed by industry figures such as the Winklevoss twins played a role. The White House has not yet provided a reason for suspending the nomination and told Bloomberg yesterday that Brian Quintenz remains President Trump's nominee for the position.
