日本金融廳 (FSA) 對 KuCoin、Bybit 和其他 3 家公司未經授權營運發出警告

東京破產交易所 Mt. Gox 三年後，日本金融廳 (FSA) 於 2017 年推出了日本第一套數位資產法規

Japan’s Financial Services Agency (FSA) has reportedly sent warning letters to five offshore crypto exchanges it accuses of operating in the country without official authorization.

據報道，日本金融廳（FSA）已向五家離岸加密貨幣交易所發出警告信，指控其未經官方授權在該國運營。

The FSA introduced Japan's first set of digital asset regulations in 2017, three years after Mt. Gox, the Tokyo-based bankrupt exchange that once handled over 70% of all Bitcoin transactions globally, confirmed losing 850,000 Bitcoins to a hack. In 2020, the FSA introduced new regulations requiring crypto exchanges to obtain operational licenses from the agency.

FSA 於2017 年推出了日本第一套數位資產法規，三年前，總部位於東京的破產交易所Mt. Gox 曾處理全球超過70% 的比特幣交易，確認因駭客攻擊損失了85 萬枚比特幣。 2020 年，英國金融服務管理局 (FSA) 發布了新規定，要求加密貨幣交易所獲得該機構的營運許可。

According to a local report, the FSA announced on Friday that it had issued warning letters to KuCoin, bitcastle LLC, Bybit Fintech Limited, MEXC Global, and Bitget Limited for operating crypto exchange businesses without proper authorization, in violation of Japan's Payment Services Act.

根據當地報道，日本金融廳週五宣布，已向KuCoin、bitcastle LLC、Bybit Fintech Limited、MEXC Global 和Bitget Limited 發出警告信，稱其未經適當授權經營加密貨幣交易業務，違反了日本《支付服務法》。

The Act requires digital asset exchange service providers to keep records, comply with anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing (AML/CFT) provisions, and take stringent measures to protect user funds.

該法案要求數位資產交易服務提供者保存記錄，遵守反洗錢和反恐融資（AML/CFT）規定，並採取嚴格措施保護用戶資金。

The FSA's move to warn the five crypto exchanges implied that customers trading on the unregistered platforms may not access compensation under Japanese laws or enjoy protection from authorities in the event of trouble or unforeseen circumstances that may lead to business insolvency.

日本金融廳向五家加密貨幣交易所發出警告的舉動意味著，在未註冊平台上進行交易的客戶可能無法根據日本法律獲得賠償，也無法在出現可能導致企業破產的麻煩或不可預見情況時享受當局的保護。

Today's development marked the second time the FSA has warned Bybit, MEXC Global, and Bitget Limited against operating in the country illegally. In April last year, the regulator instructed the three exchanges and BitForex to cease operations in Japan since they were not authorized to operate there. Bybit also received a similar warning from the FSA in 2021.

今天的事態發展標誌著 FSA 第二次警告 Bybit、MEXC Global 和 Bitget Limited 在該國非法經營。去年 4 月，監管機構指示這三個交易所和 BitForex 停止在日本的運營，因為它們無權在日本運營。 Bybit也在2021年收到了FSA的類似警告。
