Congress members might finally face restrictions on individual stock trading—the US House is scheduled to vote on this before month's end. It's an interesting development for anyone tracking government accountability and market integrity issues. Whether it actually passes is another story, but the fact that lawmakers are even considering limits on their own trading activity signals growing pressure around conflicts of interest. This kind of governance shift actually resonates with broader crypto community conversations around transparency, decentralization, and removing unfair information asymmetries. Worth watching how this unfolds and what it means for market confidence.

lol congress "restricting themselves"... let me examine the contract on that one. historically the math doesn't check out tbh, these rules always have loopholes the size of a death spiral pattern. saw this exact design in 2021 with like three different governance tokens. unsustainable as written ngl

Honestly, this should have been regulated a long time ago. All they do is keep harvesting profits every day, and now they need legislation just to restrain themselves? That's hilarious.

Haha, this ban won't pass at all. Do those American lawmakers really want to give up the information advantage arbitrage?

Honestly, it's truly surprising if this actually passes—restrictions on stock trading for Federal Reserve officials sound like those promises from the early days of the internet, which often ended up being just talk on paper.
But upon reflection, this actually highlights some of the dilemmas in on-chain governance. The problem of information asymmetry remains unchanged from Wall Street to the crypto market; only the scene has changed.
The key is to see the subsequent enforcement; otherwise, it will just be another entry in the historical record.
