Coinbase 反對 SEC 2025 財政年度 26 億美元的預算請求

在6 月13 日向CryptoSlate 發表的聲明中，Coinbase 的一位代表表示：「SEC 再次要求提供更多資金用於執法監管，因為它沒有將其巨額預算用於真正的加密規則制定，而這實際上可以促進監管的清晰度。

Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) has objected to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s $2.6 billion budget request for the 2025 fiscal year.

Coinbase（納斯達克股票代碼：COIN）拒絕了美國證券交易委員會提出的 2025 財政年度 26 億美元預算請求。

In a statement to CryptoSlate on June 13, a Coinbase representative said:

Coinbase 代表在 6 月 13 日向 CryptoSlate 發表的聲明中表示：

“Yet again the SEC asks for more money that will go to regulation by enforcement when it has used none of its massive budget for real crypto rulemaking that would actually foster regulatory clarity.”

“美國證券交易委員會再次要求更多資金用於執法監管，因為它沒有將其巨額預算用於真正的加密貨幣規則制定，而這實際上可以促進監管的清晰度。”

The SEC’s multi-billion dollar budget request includes $812.4 million allocated to enforcement, up from $675.6 million in 2024.

SEC 的數十億美元預算請求包括分配給執法的 8.124 億美元，高於 2024 年的 6.756 億美元。

SEC chair Gary Gensler said the budget would increase the SEC’s Divison of Enforcement by 27 full-time equivalent (FTE) positions to 1,447. The expansion will allow the regulator to “investigate misconduct on a larger scale” and pursue more complex lawsuits.

SEC 主席 Gary Gensler 表示，預算將使 SEC 執法部門增加 27 個全職等效 (FTE) 職位，達到 1,447 個。此次擴張將使監管機構能夠「更大規模地調查不當行為」並提起更複雜的訴訟。

Coinbase has repeatedly urged the SEC to reduce its enforcement approach and create workable regulations, including via rulemaking petitions and attempts to force a response in court.

Coinbase 一再敦促 SEC 減少執法方式並製定可行的法規，包括透過規則制定請願書和試圖迫使法庭做出回應。

The exchange made its closing statement on the matter on May 31, stating that the SEC’s changing position has “created uncertainty and confusion” instead of regulatory clarity.

該交易所於 5 月 31 日就此事發表了結案聲明，稱 SEC 立場的變化“造成了不確定性和混亂”，而不是監管的明確性。

The American Securities Association (ASA), an independent trade association, separately urged the U.S. government to provide the SEC with a lower budget.

獨立產業協會美國證券協會（ASA）單獨敦促美國政府向 SEC 提供較低的預算。

The firm wrote in a June 13 letter:

該公司在 6 月 13 日的一封信中寫道：

“The Senate Appropriations Committee should … provide the [SEC] Enforcement Division with a level of funding significantly below the President’s budget request.”

“參議院撥款委員會應該…向 [SEC] 執法部門提供遠低於總統預算要求的資金水平。”

The ASA said that the Senate Appropriations Committee should follow the House Appropriations Committee. The latter committee suggested limiting the SEC’s 2025 fiscal year budget to $2 billion and setting the SEC Enforcement Division’s budget at $644 million.

ASA 表示，參議院撥款委員會應遵循眾議院撥款委員會的規定。後者建議將 SEC 2025 財政年度預算限制在 20 億美元，並將 SEC 執法部門的預算設定為 6.44 億美元。

Additionally, the ASA urged Congress to hold the SEC accountable and force it to focus on investor protection, market order and fairness, and capital formation.

此外，ASA 敦促國會追究 SEC 的責任，並迫使其重點關注投資者保護、市場秩序和公平以及資本形成。

The trade association asked for a prohibition on certain SEC information collection, demanded probes into the regulator’s operations, and asked for mandatory reports. The ASA said:

該行業協會要求禁止美國證券交易委員會收集某些信息，要求調查監管機構的運作，並要求提供強制性報告。 ASA 表示：

“This SEC has acted as if the constraints of the Constitution and federal law do not apply to it.”

“該 SEC 的行為就好像憲法和聯邦法律的限制對其不適用一樣。”

The ASA’s concerns are not primarily focused on crypto. However, the trade body asked for a probe into a mishandled SEC case involving crypto firm DEBT Box and urged Congress to have the securities regulator account for the incident.

ASA 的擔憂主要並不集中在加密貨幣上。然而，該貿易機構要求對涉及加密貨幣公司 DEBT Box 的 SEC 處理不當案件進行調查，並敦促國會讓證券監管機構對此事件負責。
