CNBC anchor Joe Kernen’s last interview with SEC Chair Gary Gensler was certainly spirited. As Gensler prepares to step down on January 20, their discussion featured some pointed exchanges on crypto policies and Bitcoin’s classification.

CNBC 主持人 Joe Kernen 對 SEC 主席 Gary Gensler 的最後一次採訪無疑是充滿活力的。當 Gensler 準備在 1 月 20 日辭職時，他們的討論就加密貨幣政策和比特幣分類進行了一些尖銳的交流。

Gensler stated that the SEC never claimed Bitcoin is a security. However, when pressed by Kernen to share his thoughts, he said this:

Gensler 表示，SEC 從未聲稱比特幣是一種證券。然而，當克南追問他的想法時，他是這樣說的：

“I think Bitcoin is a highly speculative volatile asset, but with 7 billion people around the globe, 7 billion people want to trade it. Just like we had gold for 10,000 years, we have Bitcoin. It might be something else in the future as well.”

「我認為比特幣是一種投機性很強的波動性資產，但全球有 70 億人，有 70 億人想要交易它。就像我們擁有黃金一萬年一樣，我們也擁有比特幣。未來也可能會發生其他事情。

Continuing his remarks on the crypto landscape, he said:

他繼續對加密貨幣領域的評論說：

“These other thousands of projects need to show their use case and show that they actually have fundamentals underlying them or they won’t persist.”

“其他數千個項目需要展示他們的用例，並表明他們實際上有基礎，否則他們不會堅持下去。”

After being (jokingly) grilled by Kernen about owning Bitcoin, Gensler admitted that he never owned any cryptos.

在被克南（開玩笑地）詢問擁有比特幣的問題後，金斯勒承認他從未擁有過任何加密貨幣。

Who is Gary Gensler?

加里·詹斯勒是誰？

During his tenure as the SEC Chair, Gensler was a staunch critic of cryptocurrencies and the industry. One of his main criticisms was for its highly speculative nature, highlighting the speculative aspect of most crypto projects and likening them to high-risk ventures with uncertain returns.

在擔任 SEC 主席期間，Gensler 是加密貨幣和該行業的堅定批評者。他的主要批評之一是其高度投機性，強調了大多數加密項目的投機性，並將其比作回報不確定的高風險企業。

He also stated that the majority of crypto projects, excluding Bitcoin, closely resemble high-risk venture capital endeavors with limited potential returns for investors.

他也表示，大多數加密項目（不包括比特幣）與高風險風險投資非常相似，投資者的潛在回報有限。

During the outgoing Chair’s tenure at the SEC, nearly 100 enforcement actions were initiated, reflecting the robust regulatory approach implemented during his leadership.

在即將卸任的 SEC 主席任職期間，發起了近 100 項執法行動，反映出他在領導期間實施的強有力的監管方法。

Despite this, cryptocurrency accessibility increased significantly during Gensler’s tenure. In January 2024, the SEC approved exchange-traded funds tracking the spot price of Bitcoin.

儘管如此，在 Gensler 任職期間，加密貨幣的可近性顯著增加。 2024 年 1 月，美國證券交易委員會批准追蹤比特幣現貨價格的交易所交易基金。

These ETFs made it easier for investors to gain exposure to Bitcoin without the need for substantial upfront investments typically associated with direct Bitcoin purchases.

這些 ETF 使投資者更容易獲得比特幣投資，而無需通常與直接購買比特幣相關的大量前期投資。

Overall, many crypto enthusiasts are happy to see him go next week, but we have yet to see how his replacement will impact the crypto world.

總的來說，許多加密貨幣愛好者很高興看到他下週離開，但我們還沒有看到他的繼任者將如何影響加密世界。
