Coinbase希望政府能出台监管规则。
为此,该加密货币交易平台正在做意见总结,未来将提交给美国联邦政府。
最近,Coinbase总裁兼首席运营官艾米丽·崔因为公司计划推出的一款数字资产借贷产品,与美国证券交易委员会发生了一番争执。她表示,公司正准备就联邦政府如何监督日益扩张和高度波动的加密货币市场,发布一份方案。
她周二在《财富》最具影响力女性峰会上表示:“美国一直有丰富多彩的创业和创新的历史。我们现在的感受是,围绕加密货币存在一部分“偏执狂”,他们理解加密货币有些困难。”
一种普遍的观点是,美国一定会出台对加密货币的监管规定,现在只是时间问题。
美国联邦政府几个月来给外界释放的信号是,它正在酝酿一系列不同的改革和打压措施,并开展研究工作,对野蛮生长的加密货币市场中的投资者加强保护。崔表示,美国政府到目前为止没有明确治理这个行业的方式或时间,因此交易平台、交易商和投资者都变得日益焦虑,甚至有人因此离开了美国。
与在美国运营的其他加密货币公司一样,Coinbase确实已经向多家政府部门提交过报告。然而,关系错综复杂的监管部门要确立一个统一的框架,还需要时间。美国证监会主席、前高盛(Goldman Sachs)高管加里·盖斯勒曾在今年早些时候将加密货币市场比作“西部蛮荒时代”,他曾要求国会澄清金融监管机构应该如何联合监管加密货币,同时他表示证监会和商品期货交易委员会(Commodity Futures Trading Commission)已经开始着手监管加密货币。然而,尽管证监会和其他部门确实决定行动起来,但任何规则从提案到最终出台可能依旧需要几个月的时间。
Coinbase的方案是否符合监管者和立法者的观点,我们仍要拭目以待。针对数字资产领域,许多人提出了大量令人担忧的问题。但崔表示,Coinbase已经做好了接受监管的准备。
她表示:“我们希望与其他金融服务机构一样得到同等对待。我们想要透明的监管。”(财富中文网)

Coinbase wants some rules of the road.
To that end the cryptocurrency exchange is currently drafting some of its own ideas to provide to Washington, D.C.
Fresh off a spat with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission over a digital asset lending product it planned to roll out, Coinbase president and COO Emilie Choi said the company is preparing to release a proposal for how the federal government should oversee the sprawling and ever-changing crypto markets.
“The U.S. has had such a rich history of entrepreneurship and innovation," said Choi, who spoke Tuesday at Fortune’s Most Powerful Women Summit. “And what we’re feeling right now is that there’s this paranoia around crypto, because it’s not as easily understood.”
It is widely anticipated that cryptocurrency regulation is coming to the U.S., it’s just a matter of when.
Washington, D.C., has sent signal after signal for months now that it is preparing a suite of different reforms, crackdowns, and studies to beef up the sprawling and wild crypto markets’ investor protections. Yet, with little clarity as to how or when, exchanges, traders, and investors have all grown anxious about what’s to come, with some even leaving the country as a result, Choi noted.
Coinbase, like other crypto companies operating in the U.S., does report to a hodgepodge of agencies already. It has taken time for that interwoven quilt of regulators to piece together a cohesive framework, though. SEC Chair Gary Gensler, a former Goldman Sachs executive who equated the crypto markets to the “Wild West” earlier this year, has asked Congress for some clarity about how financial regulators should be working on crypto together, while indicating that the SEC and Commodity Futures Trading Commission are already doing so. However, even when the SEC and other agencies do decide how to move forward, it will likely still be a months-long process to get the rules proposed and finalized—whatever they may be.
How much Coinbase’s proposal will align with the views of regulators and lawmakers, many of whom have raised a flood of concerns about the digital asset world, remains to be seen. But Choi said the exchange is ready for regulation.
“We want to be treated on an even playing ground as other financial services institutions,” Choi said. “We want transparency.”
