日本考慮比特幣 (BTC) 和以太幣 (ETH) ETF，聯盟建議關注現有資產

日本公司聯盟最近採取了一項促進日本加密貨幣投資產品成長的舉措，建議該地區任何即將推出的交易所交易基金（ETF）應專注於比特幣（BTC）和以太坊（ETH）。

A coalition of Japanese companies has recommended that any upcoming exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the region should focus on Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH).

日本公司聯盟建議該地區任何即將推出的交易所交易基金 (ETF) 應重點關注比特幣 (BTC) 和以太坊 (ETH)。

This comes as Japan debates whether to follow the US and other nations that have already approved crypto-backed ETFs.

在此之際，日本正在爭論是否效仿美國和其他已經批准加密貨幣支持的 ETF 的國家。

The introduction of crypto ETFs in the US and other major countries like Hong Kong has been a significant development for the digital asset industry, following years of regulatory resistance.

經過多年的監管阻力，美國和香港等其他主要國家推出加密貨幣 ETF 是數位資產產業的重大發展。

Despite the embrace, Japan has been cautious on this front, with officials from the Financial Services Agency (FSA) expressing reservations in the past.

儘管對此表示歡迎，但日本在這方面一直持謹慎態度，金融廳（FSA）官員過去曾表示保留。

However, on Monday, a group that includes prominent financial institutions is pushing and urging the country’s regulator to prioritize Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs due to their “market value and long-term performance,” making them “well-suited” for asset-building over medium to long-term horizons.

然而，週一，一個包括知名金融機構在內的團體正在推動並敦促該國監管機構優先考慮比特幣和以太坊ETF，因為它們的「市場價值和長期表現」使它們「非常適合」在未來幾年內進行資產建設。

The group’s proposal highlights the perceived reliability of Bitcoin and Ethereum, considering their track records and significant market caps, which are key players in the overall digital currency market.

該組織的提案強調了比特幣和以太坊的可靠性，考慮到它們的業績記錄和龐大的市值，它們是整個數位貨幣市場的關鍵參與者。

As Japan explores a potential shift in its stance on crypto ETFs, this coalition seems to ensure that the focus remains on well-established assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum.

隨著日本探索其對加密 ETF 立場的潛在轉變，該聯盟似乎確保重點仍放在比特幣和以太坊等成熟資產上。

The coalition also advised that Japan reconsider its tax policies on crypto income.

該聯盟還建議日本重新考慮其加密貨幣收入的稅收政策。

Japan’s tax rate on crypto gains can reach as high as 55%, which many argue is a deterrent to individual and institutional investors.

日本對加密貨幣收益的稅率高達 55%，許多人認為這對個人和機構投資者構成了威懾。

The group suggested that a separation of tax on income earned from cryptocurrencies could help make Japan a more “competitive” destination for digital currency investment.

該組織建議，對加密貨幣收入進行稅收分離可能有助於使日本成為數位貨幣投資更具「競爭力」的目的地。

Notably, members of this coalition include key players in Japan’s financial landscape, such as Mitsubishi UFJ Trust and Banking Corp., Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank Ltd., crypto exchange bitFlyer Inc., and brokerage firms like Nomura Securities Co. and SBI Securities Co.

值得注意的是，該聯盟的成員包括日本金融領域的主要參與者，如三菱日聯信託銀行、三井住友信託銀行、加密貨幣交易所 bitFlyer Inc.，以及野村證券和 SBI 證券等經紀公司。

These institutions with vast industry experience have collectively expressed their concerns and recommendations as a consensus rather than individual opinions.

這些擁有豐富行業經驗的機構集體表達了他們的擔憂和建議，這是共識，而不是個人意見。

The coalition’s insights come when Japan’s digital currency regulatory environment is under close examination, and the FSA has confirmed its intent to review its regulatory policies. However, this review is expected to take time and its outcome remains uncertain.

該聯盟的見解是在日本數位貨幣監管環境受到密切審查且日本金融廳已確認有意審查其監管政策之際提出的。然而，這項審查預計需要時間，其結果仍不確定。
