Vote on pro-crypto OCC nominee Gould set for this afternoon

A vote on Jonathan Gould as head of the U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) is scheduled for this afternoon, according to Crypto in America host Eleanor Terrett on X. Gould, known for supporting crypto custody and stablecoin guidance during his time at the OCC and Bitfury, is viewed as pro-crypto. However, some industry voices express concern he may push for OCC oversight of all crypto firms, potentially reducing state-level regulatory authority.
