Trump Administration To Reportedly Let CFTC Regulate Bitcoin, Ethereum Spot Market, Is The SEC Set To Lose Its Grip Over Crypto?
Key figures in the incoming Trump administration believe that less stringent regulation is needed to spur innovation in the cryptocurrency business.The incoming Donald Trump administration is reportedly planning to extend the regulatory power of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to oversee a major portion of the cryptocurrency market.
據報道，即將上任的特朗普概念政府計劃擴大商品期貨交易委員會的監管權力，監督數字貨幣市場的主要部分。
What Happened: The CFTC's role could soon expand to include the regulation of spot markets for major assets such as Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) and Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH), along with the exchanges that facilitate their trading, Fox Business reported on Tuesday, citing sources close to Trump's team.
發生了什麼：據福克斯商業週刊週二報道，CFTC的角色可能很快擴大到包括對主要資產如比特幣（CRYPTO: BTC）和以太幣（CRYPTO: ETH）的現貨市場進行監管，以及促進其交易的交易所，消息來源接近特朗普團隊。
The proposed move is part of a broader effort by President-elect Trump and the Republican majorities in Congress to scale back the regulatory power that the SEC has exerted over the digital asset industry under President Joe Biden and his outgoing SEC chairman, Gary Gensler.
這一提議是特朗普當選總統及國會共和黨多數派計劃減少SEC在喬·拜登總統及其即將離任的SEC主席加里·根斯勒領導下對數字資產行業監管權力的更廣泛努力的一部分。
Key figures in the incoming Trump administration believe that less stringent regulation is needed to spur innovation in the cryptocurrency business.
即將上任的特朗普政府的關鍵人物認爲，需要更寬鬆的監管，以激勵數字貨幣業務的創新。
If implemented, the move would give the CFTC, the regulator of the U.S. derivatives market, jurisdiction over a nearly $2.24 trillion market for Bitcoin and Ethereum, making up more than 70% of the global cryptocurrency market.
如果實施，這一舉動將使CFTC，即美國衍生品市場的監管機構，擁有對近2.24萬億美元的比特幣和以太幣市場的管轄權，構成全球數字貨幣市場的70%以上。
The CFTC didn't immediately respond to Benzinga's request for confirmation. A mail sent to Trump's former campaign spokesman wasn't responded to either.
CFTC沒有立即回應Benzinga的確認請求。發給特朗普前競選發言人的郵件也未得到回覆。
Why It Matters: The CFTC has long considered digital assets like Ethereum as commodities, as stated by CFTC Chair Rostin Benham in his testimony before the Senate Agriculture Committee, in contrast to the SEC's ambiguous position on the asset.
爲什麼這很重要：CFTC長期以來將以太幣等數字資產視爲商品，這一點在CFTC主席羅斯廷·本哈姆向參議院農業委員會作證時已表明，與SEC對這些資產的模糊立場形成對比。
As for Bitcoin, the asset has long been recognized as a commodity, even by the SEC, protecting it against regulatory scrutiny.
至於比特幣，該資產長期以來被認可爲商品，甚至連SEC也將其保護在監管審查之外。
The Trump transition team has been considering the creation of a White House role dedicated to cryptocurrency policy, indicating a potential shift in the U.S. government's approach to digital assets (source).
特朗普過渡團隊一直在考慮設立一個專門負責數字貨幣政策的白宮職位，這表明美國政府在數字資產方面可能會發生變化（來源）。
This change in regulatory oversight comes as SEC Chair Gary Gensler, known for his stringent regulatory approach towards cryptocurrencies, announced his resignation effective from Trump's inauguration day.
這一監管監督的變化發生在SEC主席加里·金斯勒以其對數字貨幣的嚴格監管方式而聞名，並宣佈從特朗普就職日生效辭職。
