Odaily Planet Daily News: The Republican Party continues to control the U.S. House of Representatives, which may usher in pro-kriptocurrency lawmakers to lead the formulation of digital asset-related bills. According to the Associated Press, the Republican Party won a majority of 218 members, while the Democratic Party won 208 seats.
That sets the stage for Republicans to take over the House Financial Services Committee, an influential panel that oversees the SEC, the Federal Reserve and other federal agencies. The current chairman, Rep. Patrick McHenry, R-N.C., is set to retire in January 2025.
McHenry played a key role in leading a bill to regulate stablecoins and legislation focused on crypto market structure. The latter gives the CFTC new jurisdiction over “digital commodities” and says the SEC will oversee digital assets offered as part of investment contracts.
The new chairman will likely be chosen this month or December. The committee chair candidates include Arkansas Rep. French Hill, Kentucky Rep. Andy Barr, Michigan Rep. Bill Huizenga, and Oklahoma Rep. Frank Lucas, all of whom are friendly to cryptocurrencies. For example, Hill leads the committees digital asset-focused group and has been working to pass cryptocurrency bills, including those involving stablecoins. (The Block)

Powell: Fed doesnt need to rush to cut rates
Odaily Planet Daily News: Federal Reserve Chairman Powell said that due to the strong US economy, the Fed does not need to rush to lower interest rates, and the Fed will watch carefully to ensure that certain inflation indicators remain within acceptable ranges.

Vitalik Buterin: The ideal Ethereum experience should be like using a credit card
Odaily Planet Daily reported that in the Devcon panel discussion held in Bangkok, Vitalik Buterin, Stephen Goldfeder, Ben Jones and Jesse Pollack discussed the problems faced by Ethereum and its Rollup-centric roadmap. Vitalik Buterin said that currently whenever users operate across multiple chains, customized solutions are required. The ideal Ethereum experience should be like the use of credit cards in Web2, where everything is seamlessly connected in the background. If Ethereum cannot achieve this level of experience, it will lose to other things that can achieve this level.
Stephen Goldfeder said that users should not be bothered by the complexity of the infrastructure and advocated a unified Ethereum that envisions seamless cross-chain transitions within the ecosystem. Vitalik Buterin also emphasized the need to simplify cross-chain asset flows. In the end, the group articulated a common mission: to enhance the user experience without compromising the decentralized spirit of Ethereum, aiming to build an ecosystem centered on users rather than chains.
