SEC的加密特遣部隊在周五舉行了第一次公開會議，匯集了專家，討論證券法對數字資產的申請

The SEC’s crypto task force held its first public meeting on Friday, bringing together experts to discuss how securities laws apply to digital assets, as the Trump administration pushes to reshape cryptocurrency regulations.

SEC的加密特遣部隊在周五舉行了首次公開會議，將專家匯集在一起​​，討論證券法對數字資產的適用性，隨著特朗普政府推動重塑加密貨幣法規。

The participants included John Reed Stark, former SEC official, Miles Jennings from Andreessen Horowitz, and ex-SEC Commissioner Troy Paredes. The task force is focused on devising rules and guidance for the crypto industry.

參與者包括約翰·里德·史塔克（John Reed Stark），前美國證券交易委員會（SEC）的官員，來自安德森·霍洛維茨（Andreessen Horowitz）的邁爾斯·詹寧斯（Miles Jennings）和前SEC專員特洛伊·帕雷德斯（Troy Paredes）。該工作隊的重點是為加密行業設計規則和指導。

A key topic of discussion was whether crypto tokens should have their own set of rules, diverging from how the SEC handles stocks. Jennings, a partner at the venture capital firm, suggested that the SEC should maintain a stance of “technology-neutrality.” He argued for treating systems like Ethereum differently from investing in Apple stock. Some, including SEC Commissioner Caroline Crenshaw, expressed concerns that granting crypto its own set of rules could dilute regulations and allow digital assets to evade closer scrutiny.

討論的一個關鍵主題是加密代幣是否應該有自己的一套規則，與SEC處理股票的方式有所不同。風險投資公司的合夥人詹寧斯（Jennings）建議，SEC應保持“技術中性”的立場。他主張以與對蘋果股票的投資一樣對以太坊的處理方式也有所不同。包括SEC專員卡羅琳·克倫肖（Caroline Crenshaw）在內的一些人表示擔心，授予加密貨幣的一套規則可以削弱法規，並允許數字資產避免仔細審查。

However, John Reed Stark, former director of the SEC’s Office of Internet Enforcement, took a strong stance against any adjustments to regulations at the first SEC crypto roundtable. He asserted that the Securities Act of 1933 and 1934 should remain in their original form to cover digital assets. Stark also highlighted that these assets should still be classified as securities.

但是，SEC互聯網執法辦公室前董事約翰·里德·斯塔克（John Reed Stark）對第一秒加密圓桌會議的任何調整都採取了強烈的立場。他斷言，1933年和1934年的《證券法》應保持原始形式，以涵蓋數字資產。斯塔克還強調，這些資產仍應歸類為證券。

“We’re not talking about baseball cards or stamps. People are investing their life savings in these tokens,” Stark said.

斯塔克說：“我們不是在談論棒球卡或郵票。人們正在為這些代幣投資救生。”

He further emphasized that crypto buyers aren’t collectors but investors, and the SEC’s mission is to safeguard these investors.

他進一步強調，加密買家不是收藏家，而是投資者，而SEC的使命是保護這些投資者。

“The volume of case law has developed so quickly because of all these crypto firms. They went for this sort of delay, delay, delay, idea, and they hired the best law firms in the world, and these law firms all fought the SEC with incredible briefs,” Stark said.

史塔克說：“由於所有這些加密公司，判例法的數量已經如此迅速。他們為這種延遲，延遲，延遲，想法而努力，他們僱用了世界上最好的律師事務所，這些律師事務所都以令人難以置信的摘要與SEC進行了與SEC的戰鬥。”

Stark had a different perspective on the cases, arguing that he had thoroughly reviewed them and, in his opinion, they mostly lost. He also stated that he doesn’t see anything particularly innovative about digital assets compared to earlier technological advancements, like the launch of the iPhone.

斯塔克對案件有不同的看法，認為他已經對它們進行了徹底的審查，並且在他看來，他們大多失去了。他還說，與早期的技術進步（如iPhone的推出）相比，他對數字資產的看法沒有特別創新。

In February 2024, John Reed Stark criticized a sponsorship deal between the Dallas Mavericks and crypto firm Voyager, comparing it to partnering with a “heroin manufacturer.” He argued that cryptocurrency should follow existing laws, rather than adapting the law to fit digital assets. Stark’s views have been strongly criticized, with Mark Cuban calling it “crypto derangement syndrome.”

2024年2月，約翰·里德·斯塔克（John Reed Stark）批評達拉斯小牛隊與加密貨幣公司Voyager之間的讚助協議，並將其與與“海洛因製造商”合作進行了比較。他認為，加密貨幣應遵守現有法律，而不是適應法律以適合數字資產。斯塔克的觀點受到了強烈的批評，馬克·古巴（Mark Cuban）稱其為“加密危險綜合症”。
