Just saw that Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim's bitcoin investment plan got shut down by local and provincial regulations. Honestly didn't expect it to even get that far, but apparently there are legal barriers preventing cities from holding crypto like that. Pretty interesting timing too - you'd think municipalities would be exploring this kind of thing by now, but I guess the legal framework just isn't there yet. Makes you wonder what's actually stopping them - is it the volatility concerns or just outdated financial rules that haven't caught up? Either way, Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim's proposal shows there's at least some appetite for it at the government level, even if it didn't work out this time. Curious if other cities are running into the same issues or if Vancouver's just ahead of the curve here. The whole thing feels like it's waiting for someone to actually change the rules rather than work around them.
