又一位 SEC 民主黨人退出，讓共和黨人在二月繼續管理該機構

民主黨委員海梅·利扎拉加 (Jaime Lizárraga) 表示，他將與主席加里·詹斯勒 (Gary Gensler) 一起退出美國證券監管機構，從而留下兩名共和黨人和一名民主黨人。

Another Democratic commissioner on the Securities and Exchange Commission is following Chair Gary Gensler out the door in January, leaving the agency with a Republican majority as it weighs a likely course shift under the new administration of President-elect Donald Trump.

美國證券交易委員會(Securities and Exchange Commission)的另一位民主黨委員將於一月份追隨主席加里·詹斯勒(Gary Gensler)的離去，使得該機構在共和黨佔多數的情況下權衡當選總統唐納德·川普(Donald Trump)的新政府可能發生的路線轉變。

Commissioner Jaime Lizárraga is leaving January 17, he said in a Friday statement, which could give Republicans a head start on what could otherwise have been months of delay in redirecting the regulator's policies — including on cryptocurrency. At this point, Caroline Crenshaw will be the sole Democrat on the five-member commission going into 2025, and her term has already expired, putting her into an extension that can last as long as about 18 months.

海梅·利扎拉加(Jaime Lizárraga) 委員在周五的一份聲明中表示，他將於1 月17 日離職，這可能會讓共和黨人在調整監管機構政策（包括加密貨幣政策）方面取得先機，否則可能會延遲數月。此時，卡羅琳·克倫肖將成為進入 2025 年的五人委員會中唯一的民主黨人，而她的任期已經屆滿，這意味著她的任期可能會持續長達約 18 個月。

Lizárraga said he's leaving because his wife has been suffering with a serious illness.

利扎拉加說，他要離開是因為他的妻子患了重病。

"In reflecting on the challenges that lie ahead, we have decided that it is in the best interests of our family to close this chapter in my 34-year public service journey," he said in the statement.

他在聲明中表示：“在反思未來的挑戰時，我們決定結束我 34 年公共服務之旅的這一章，符合我們家庭的最大利益。”

The commission has been led in recent years by Gensler, who announced this week that he'd be resigning when Trump is sworn in on January 20. Under Gensler's leadership, the commission had maintained an aggressive campaign of enforcement against crypto companies, arguing that digital assets platforms such as Coinbase Inc. (COIN) and Binance are operating as unregistered securities exchanges and that many of the tokens transacted on their platforms are securities.

近年來，該委員會一直由Gensler 領導，他本周宣布，他將在川普1 月20 日宣誓就職時辭職。數位貨幣公司Coinbase Inc. (COIN) 和 Binance 等資產平台作為未註冊的證券交易所運營，在其平台上交易的許多代幣都是證券。

A wide array of enforcement actions have been based on that stance, and they've developed into federal court cases in which the industry has countered the agency's arguments on tokens as securities. That's the situation that will be inherited by the new commission.

一系列廣泛的執法行動都是基於這一立場，並已發展成為聯邦法院案件，在這些案件中，該行業反駁了該機構關於代幣作為證券的論點。這就是新委員會將繼承的情況。

If Trump appoints one of the sitting Republican commissioners as an acting chair — widely expected to be Mark Uyeda — that new commission chief can begin shifting policy priorities and the agency's legal stance on crypto. With a two-member majority alongside Commissioner Hester Peirce, the two Republicans will be running the agency's agenda while the rest of the commission is filled out by Trump's nominations.

如果川普任命現任共和黨委員擔任代理主席（普遍預期是馬克·烏耶達），那麼新的委員會主席就可以開始改變政策優先事項和該機構對加密貨幣的法律立場。由於與委員海絲特·皮爾斯 (Hester Peirce) 一起佔多數，這兩位共和黨人將負責該機構的議程，而委員會的其餘成員則由川普的提名填補。

Gensler said on Friday that Lizárraga "has been steadfastly focused on elevating the interest of everyday Americans."

金斯勒週五表示，利扎拉加「一直堅定地致力於提高普通美國人的興趣」。

"At the SEC, he has been an excellent partner in our work to protect investors, facilitate capital formation, and ensure markets work for investors and issuers alike," Gensler said in a statement.

詹斯勒在一份聲明中表示：“在美國證券交易委員會，他一直是我們保護投資者、促進資本形成以及確保市場為投資者和發行人服務的出色合作夥伴。”
