House Democrats’ reported crypto bill talks could include ethics limits

Wu Blockchain says crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett, citing three industry sources, reports that House Democrats are discussing expanding Maxine Waters’s 2025 Crypto Investor and Consumer Rights Act amendment into a broader market-structure bill for the next Congress. The discussions reportedly include provisions from Waters’s version of the CLARITY Act and provisions Senate Democrats had agreed with Republicans before the September procedural vote. The proposal could broaden SEC oversight, limit the CFTC’s role and potentially add ethics provisions restricting Trump and other federal officials from crypto-related activities. Republicans characterize it as largely political messaging. For now, it remains a discussion, not legislation that has advanced.
