美國證券交易委員會拒絕比特幣 ETF 拖累加密貨幣市場

在美國證券交易委員會 (SEC) 週四重申拒絕交易所上市加密貨幣 ETF 的提議後，週五比特幣跌破 8,000 美元大關。美國證券交易委員會提到了對潛在市場操縱的擔憂，指出擬議的 ETF 缺乏針對此類活動的足夠保障措施。這項決定引起了投資者的擔憂，一些分析師將其解讀為加密貨幣市場的負面訊號。

SEC's Refusal to Approve Bitcoin ETF Saps Cryptocurrency Market

美國證券交易委員會拒絕批准比特幣 ETF 削弱加密貨幣市場

Washington, D.C. - The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has stood firm in its decision to deny an exchange's request to list a cryptocurrency exchange-traded fund (ETF), causing a significant decline in the cryptocurrency market.

華盛頓特區 - 美國證券交易委員會 (SEC) 堅決拒絕交易所要求加密貨幣交易所交易基金 (ETF) 上市的決定，導致加密貨幣市場大幅下跌。

On Thursday, the SEC released a 92-page report outlining its concerns about market manipulation in the nascent Bitcoin market. The rejection of the proposed ETF, which was submitted by Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, is a setback for the cryptocurrency industry, which had been eagerly anticipating the approval of a Bitcoin ETF.

週四，美國證券交易委員會 (SEC) 發布了一份 92 頁的報告，概述了對新興比特幣市場操縱行為的擔憂。卡梅倫·文克萊沃斯(Cameron Winklevoss) 和泰勒·文克萊沃斯(Tyler Winklevoss) 提交的擬議ETF 遭到拒絕，這對加密貨幣行業來說是一個挫折，該行業一直熱切期待比特幣ETF 獲得批准。

The SEC's decision stems from its skepticism about the ability of regulated Bitcoin markets to adequately protect investors from manipulation. The agency cited the lack of a robust regulatory framework for the cryptocurrency market, as well as the volatility and the presence of fraud and manipulation.

美國證券交易委員會的決定源於其對受監管的比特幣市場是否有能力充分保護投資者免受操縱的懷疑。該機構指出，加密貨幣市場缺乏健全的監管框架，且波動性大，有詐欺和操縱行為。

"Despite today's ruling, we look forward to continuing to work with the SEC and remain deeply committed to bringing a regulated Bitcoin ETF to market and building the future of money," Cameron Winklevoss said in a statement.

Cameron Winklevoss 在一份聲明中表示：“儘管今天做出了裁決，我們仍期待繼續與 SEC 合作，並繼續堅定致力於將受監管的比特幣 ETF 推向市場並建立貨幣的未來。”

The SEC's rejection has sent shockwaves through the cryptocurrency market, with Bitcoin falling below $8,000 on Friday morning. Ethereum, the world's second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, also experienced a decline, along with other cryptocurrencies such as Ripple's XRP token and Litecoin.

美國證券交易委員會的拒絕給加密貨幣市場帶來了衝擊，週五早上比特幣跌破 8,000 美元。以市值計算的全球第二大加密貨幣以太坊也經歷了下跌，其他加密貨幣如 Ripple 的 XRP 代幣和萊特幣也經歷了下跌。

The news has dashed hopes for an imminent approval of a Bitcoin ETF, with analysts interpreting the SEC's decision as a negative sign for the cryptocurrency industry.

這項消息讓比特幣 ETF 即將獲得批准的希望破滅，分析師將 SEC 的決定解讀為加密貨幣產業的負面訊號。

"There's no way you could not interpret this as a bad sign," said Eric Balchunas, a senior analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence.

彭博資訊 (Bloomberg Intelligence) 高級分析師 Eric Balchunas 表示：“你不可能不將此解讀為一個壞兆頭。”

Compounding the market's woes, CME Group CEO Terry Duffy announced that the company would not be listing any additional crypto-related contracts in the near future. Duffy expressed concerns about the volatility and regulatory uncertainty surrounding the cryptocurrency market.

芝商所執行長 Terry Duffy 宣布，該公司在不久的將來不會上市任何額外的加密貨幣相關合約，這加劇了市場的困境。達菲對加密貨幣市場的波動性和監管不確定性表示擔憂。

"Bitcoin futures might have been the most controversial launch of a product," Duffy said. "I will not just put products up there to see where they're going to go. I will take a wait and see approach with Bitcoin for now."

「比特幣期貨可能是最具爭議的產品推出，」達菲說。 “我不會只是把產品放在那裡看看它們會去哪裡。我現在會對比特幣採取觀望態度。”

The SEC's decision and CME Group's cautious stance have cast a shadow over the cryptocurrency market, raising questions about the industry's regulatory path and its ability to attract institutional investors. The cryptocurrency market is expected to remain under pressure until there is greater clarity on the regulatory front.

美國證券交易委員會的決定和芝商所的謹慎立場給加密貨幣市場蒙上了陰影，引發了對該行業監管路徑及其吸引機構投資者能力的質疑。在監管方面更加明確之前，預計加密貨幣市場將繼續面臨壓力。
