The White House has postponed the vote on Brian Quintenz's nomination as CFTC chairman.

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 as CFTC chairman, with many speculations circulating within Washington D.C. Some say it is due to concerns about the vote count, while others point to lobbying from the American Gaming Association (AGA) regarding Brian Quintenz’s support for prediction markets. There are also those who believe it is due to the unease expressed by industry insiders such as the Winklevoss twins. The White House has not clarified the reason for the pause in the nomination and stated to Bloomberg yesterday that Brian Quintenz is still the candidate nominated by President Trump for the position.
