Representative Maxine Waters, the ranking Democrat on the House Financial Services Committee, pushed a new bill on Thursday that again seeks to make the president's crypto dealings explicitly illegal. The legislation — labeled the Stop Trading, Retention, and Unfair Market Payoffs in Crypto Act of 2025, carefully named for purposes of an acronym as the Stop TRUMP in Crypto Act — prohibits senior government officials and lawmakers from owning, controlling or serving as an officer of a crypto firm or token issuer, and also from trading in digital assets if they have special insight because of their government role.
