菲律賓 SEC 對幣安的禁令使菲律賓用戶面臨資產凍結

菲律賓證券交易委員會（SEC）已禁止加密貨幣交易所幣安，這讓菲律賓用戶質疑他們所持資產的命運。律師 Paolo Ong 解釋說，該禁令是對未註冊加密貨幣平台更廣泛打擊的一部分，僅在 2023 年就禁止了大約 14 個加密貨幣平台。儘管幣安用戶有充足的時間提取資金，但 Ong 表示，由於交易所被封鎖，美國證券交易委員會無法認可存取這些資金的方法。美國證券交易委員會正在起草加密貨幣法規以保護菲律賓投資者，但強調這個過程需要時間。

SEC Philippines' Ban on Binance: Implications for Filipino Users

菲律賓 SEC 對幣安的禁令：對菲律賓用戶的影響

The recent prohibition imposed by the Philippine Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on the global cryptocurrency exchange Binance has generated significant concern among Filipino users holding assets on the platform. In an extensive interview, Paolo Ong, the Officer-in-Charge of the SEC's PhiliFintech Innovation Office, elucidated the rationale behind the ban and its consequences for affected users.

菲律賓證券交易委員會（SEC）最近對全球加密貨幣交易所幣安實施的禁令引起了在該平台上持有資產的菲律賓用戶的嚴重擔憂。在一次廣泛的訪談中，美國證券交易委員會 PhiliFintech 創新辦公室負責人 Paolo Ong 闡述了該禁令背後的理由及其對受影響用戶的影響。

SEC's Enforcement Policy

SEC 的執法政策

Emphasizing that Binance is not being unfairly targeted, Mr. Ong stated that the ban aligns with the SEC's ongoing efforts to protect Filipino investors from unregulated and unregistered entities operating in the cryptocurrency space. He disclosed that approximately 14 platforms have been banned by the SEC in the Philippines so far in 2023.

Ong 先生強調，幣安並沒有成為不公平的目標，他表示，該禁令符合 SEC 為保護菲律賓投資者免受在加密貨幣領域運營的不受監管和未註冊實體侵害而做出的持續努力。他透露，截至 2023 年，菲律賓已有約 14 個平台被 SEC 禁止。

Case of eToro

公牛的案例

The SEC has also cautioned eToro, a crypto trading platform, for operating without the necessary licenses and registration in the Philippines. Similar to Binance, eToro has been notified by the SEC and given a grace period to comply with regulations.

美國證券交易委員會也警告加密貨幣交易平台 eToro 在菲律賓未經必要許可和註冊的情況下運作。與幣安類似，eToro 已收到 SEC 的通知，並給予遵守法規的寬限期。

Filipino Binance Users' Access to Crypto Assets

Addressing the concerns of Binance users whose funds remain inaccessible following the ban, Mr. Ong emphasized that ample time was provided for them to withdraw their assets. An advisory was issued in November 2023, followed by a grace period that was subsequently extended.

針對幣安用戶在禁令實施後資金仍無法使用的擔憂，Ong 先生強調，為他們提供了充足的時間提取資產。 2023 年 11 月發布了諮詢意見，隨後又延長了一段寬限期。

As a result, the SEC cannot endorse any alternative methods for users to retrieve their funds at this time. However, users are advised to be vigilant against potential scams and fraudulent activities.

因此，美國證券交易委員會目前無法認可用戶取回資金的任何替代方法。不過，建議用戶警惕潛在的詐騙和詐欺活動。

Cryptocurrency Regulations in the Philippines

Mr. Ong highlighted the substantial volume of cryptocurrency transactions in the Philippines, estimated at around $80 billion in 2023. Recognizing the potential risks, the SEC is actively working on developing appropriate regulations for cryptocurrencies.

Ong 先生強調了菲律賓加密貨幣交易量巨大，預計 2023 年將達到約 800 億美元。美國證券交易委員會 (SEC) 認識到潛在風險，正在積極致力於制定適當的加密貨幣法規。

In the meantime, the SEC's PhiliFintech Innovation Office serves to guide participants in the financial services industry on the risks and opportunities associated with emerging technologies.

同時，美國證券交易委員會的 PhiliFintech 創新辦公室負責指導金融服務業的參與者了解與新興技術相關的風險和機會。

Binance and eToro's Applications for License

Binance和eToro的許可申請

As of the interview date, the SEC had not received any formal applications from Binance or eToro for licenses. Mr. Ong emphasized that both platforms have the responsibility to comply with Philippine regulations.

截至採訪日期，SEC 尚未收到幣安或 eToro 的任何正式許可申請。 Ong先生強調，兩個平台都有責任遵守菲律賓法規。

Binance Coin (BNB), the native token of Binance, has recently been trading at approximately $598.1 in the 7-day chart, according to data from TradingView.

根據 TradingView 的數據，幣安的原生代幣幣安幣 (BNB) 最近的 7 日圖表交易價格約為 598.1 美元。
