加里·詹斯勒 (Gary Gensler) 在有關其潛在繼任者的傳言中為其加密貨幣監管方法辯護

隨著關於唐納德·特朗普總統可能計劃在就職後取代 SEC 主席加里·詹斯勒 (Gary Gensler) 的討論愈演愈烈，詹斯勒仍然堅定地捍衛他對加密貨幣的監管方法。

Gary Gensler, chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), has defended his regulatory approach to cryptocurrencies, arguing that it aligns closely with the policies of his predecessor, Jay Clayton.

美國證券交易委員會 (SEC) 主席加里·詹斯勒 (Gary Gensler) 為他對加密貨幣的監管方法進行了辯護，認為這與其前任傑伊·克萊頓 (Jay Clayton) 的政策密切相關。

Gensler made the remarks during the Practising Law Institute’s Annual Institute on Securities Regulation, held in New York on 14 November. He noted that the SEC has brought approximately 80 crypto-related enforcement actions during Clayton's tenure, from May 2017 to December 2020, and the agency has maintained this level of activity under his leadership.

Gensler 於 11 月 14 日在紐約舉行的執業法律研究所證券監管年度研究所上發表了上述言論。他指出，在 Clayton 任職期間（2017 年 5 月至 2020 年 12 月），SEC 發起了大約 80 起與加密貨幣相關的執法行動，並且該機構在他的領導下一直保持著這種水平的活動。

However, critics argue that Gensler's approach appears significantly more aggressive. For instance, Rep. Tom Emmer said during Gensler's recent testimony that we "could not have had a more historically destructive or lawless chairman of the SEC."

然而，批評者認為詹斯勒的方法似乎更具侵略性。例如，眾議員湯姆·埃默 (Tom Emmer) 在 Gensler 最近的證詞中表示，我們「不可能有一位更具歷史破壞性或無法無天的 SEC 主席」。

Under Gensler's leadership, the SEC has targeted major crypto firms like Coinbase and Binance, accusing them of operating unregistered exchanges, an intensity that was less evident during Clayton's tenure.

在 Gensler 的領導下，美國證券交易委員會針對 Coinbase 和 Binance 等主要加密貨幣公司，指控他們經營未註冊的交易所，這種力度在克萊頓任職期間並不那麼明顯。

For context, former President Donald Trump, set for a potential return to office, previously vowed to fire SEC Chair Gary Gensler. Such transitions often see a change in the chair of the SEC, especially when the ruling party changes. While Gensler has not explicitly addressed his plans, his recent remarks carried a reflective, almost farewell-like tone.

就背景而言，即將重返總統職位的前總統唐納德·川普此前曾發誓要解僱 SEC 主席加里·詹斯勒 (Gary Gensler)。此類過渡通常會導致 SEC 主席發生變化，尤其是當執政黨發生變化時。雖然詹斯勒沒有明確提及他的計劃，但他最近的言論帶有一種反思，幾乎像是告別的語氣。

Gensler also spoke at a legal conference on the same day in New York, where he highlighted the SEC's efforts to establish clear "rules of the road" for cryptocurrency sales and intermediaries, such as brokers and exchanges, as reported by Bloomberg.

根據彭博社報道，Gensler 也在同一天於紐約舉行的法律會議上發表了講話，他強調了SEC 為加密貨幣銷售和中介機構（例如經紀人和交易所）制定明確的「道路規則」所做的努力。

There, Gensler reiterated the stance that Bitcoin is not classified as a security, which aligns with the position held by his predecessor, Jay Clayton, during the initial Trump administration, and put it best when he said,

在那裡，Gensler 重申了比特幣不被歸類為證券的立場，這與他的前任 Jay Clayton 在川普執政初期所持的立場一致，並說得最好：

"I am proud to follow on and continue on Chair Clayton's leadership. And I say this because we didn’t actually differ much.”

“我很自豪能夠繼承並繼續克萊頓主席的領導。我這樣說是因為我們實際上並沒有太大分歧。”
