President Donald Trump has appointed Jonathan Gould, the former chief legal officer of Bitfury and senior deputy comptroller of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), to lead the OCC. Additionally, Trump has nominated Jonathan McKernan, a former banking regulator, to head the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). McKernan's nomination has been met with mixed responses, as he has previously advocated for bank megamergers that the CFPB has opposed, raising concerns about the agency's future stability amid ongoing scrutiny.
