阿根廷总统 Milei 颁布新的加密货币监管框架

哈维尔·米雷 (Javier Milei) 是一位无政府资本主义者和自由主义者，于 2023 年 12 月成为阿根廷总统。政府最初被视为支持比特币和加密货币，但政府加强监管的举措令许多人感到惊讶。国家价值委员会（CNV）实施了虚拟资产服务提供商的强制性注册，要求在阿根廷经营加密资产的公司和个人遵守。

Argentina Unveils New Cryptocurrency Regulatory Framework Under President Javier Milei

阿根廷在总统哈维尔·米莱 (Javier Milei) 的领导下推出了新的加密货币监管框架

Following the election of Javier Milei, an anarcho-capitalist and libertarian leader, as Argentina's president in December 2023, many anticipated that his economic and monetary policies would foster the country's adoption of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. However, recent developments suggest that the government is taking a more cautious approach.

无政府资本主义和自由主义领导人哈维尔·米雷 (Javier Milei) 于 2023 年 12 月当选阿根廷总统后，许多人预计他的经济和货币政策将促进该国采用比特币和加密货币。然而，最近的事态发展表明政府正在采取更加谨慎的态度。

In late March, the Comisión Nacional de Valores (CNV), Argentina's securities regulator, announced the establishment of a mandatory Registry of Virtual Asset Service Providers (VASPs) for entities operating with crypto assets within the country. This requirement, part of amendments to the existing regulatory framework, aims to address recommendations from the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), an intergovernmental body that sets standards for combating money laundering and terrorist financing.

3 月下旬，阿根廷证券监管机构国家价值委员会 (CNV) 宣布为在该国境内运营加密资产的实体建立强制性虚拟资产服务提供商 (VASP) 登记处。这一要求是现有监管框架修正案的一部分，旨在回应金融行动特别工作组 (FATF) 的建议，该组织是一个制定打击洗钱和恐怖主义融资标准的政府间机构。

The Registry will require companies and individuals offering cryptocurrency-related services, such as buying, selling, sending, receiving, lending, or trading, to complete the registration process. Both locally based and foreign firms operating in the Argentine market will be subject to this requirement.

登记处将要求提供加密货币相关服务（例如购买、出售、发送、接收、借贷或交易）的公司和个人完成注册流程。在阿根廷市场运营的本地公司和外国公司都将受到这一要求的约束。

"Those who are not registered will not be able to operate in the country," affirmed Roberto E. Silva, president of the CNV. Following the announcement, the CNV engaged in a meeting with major legal firms and the Fintech chamber to discuss the implementation of the Registry, with participation from representatives of local companies.

CNV 总裁 Roberto E. Silva 表示：“未注册的企业将无法在该国开展业务。”公告发布后，CNV 与主要律师事务所和金融科技商会召开了会议，讨论注册中心的实施，当地公司的代表也参加了会议。

The move has been met with criticism from some sectors. Manuel Ferrari, member of Argentinian NGO Directive and co-founder of the Money On Chain protocol, argues that the Registry is an unnecessary interference in the cryptocurrency market.

此举遭到了一些部门的批评。阿根廷非政府组织指令成员、Money On Chain 协议联合创始人曼努埃尔·法拉利 (Manuel Ferrari) 认为，登记处是对加密货币市场的不必要干扰。

"Bitcoin is money, not a security. It's preposterous to require currency exchange houses or gold shops to register with the CNV," Ferrari stated in an interview. "This benefits no one except state bureaucrats and an army of lawyers and people from the 'compliance industry.'"

“比特币是货币，而不是证券。要求货币兑换所或金店在 CNV 注册是荒谬的，”法拉利在接受采访时表示。 “除了国家官僚、律师大军和‘合规行业’人士之外，这对任何人都没有好处。”

Ferrari believes that the measure does not align with Milei's perceived pro-Bitcoin stance, emphasizing that Milei's party did not initiate the Registry proposal. Nicolas Bourbon, co-founder of payments solution KamiPay, echoed Ferrari's sentiments, highlighting that Milei's support is more general in nature, extending to any form of currency, including unconventional options like rocks or copper.

Ferrari 认为，该措施与 Milei 所认为的支持比特币的立场不一致，并强调 Milei 的政党并未发起登记提案。支付解决方案 KamiPay 联合创始人 Nicolas Bourbon 呼应了 Ferrari 的观点，强调 Milei 的支持本质上更为普遍，涵盖任何形式的货币，包括岩石或铜等非常规选择。

Both Ferrari and Bourbon view the Registry as a response to international pressure rather than a medida aimed at impacting users in the short term. This assessment is supported by Argentina's ranking as the 15th largest cryptocurrency market globally, according to Chainalysis' Global Crypto Adoption Index Top 20.

Ferrari 和 Bourbon 都将注册表视为对国际压力的回应，而不是旨在短期影响用户的医疗手段。根据 Chainaanalysis 的全球加密货币采用指数前 20 名，阿根廷被列为全球第 15 大加密货币市场，这一评估得到了支持。

It remains to be seen how the new regulatory framework will impact the Argentine cryptocurrency market. While the Registry is intended to address money laundering concerns, it is likely to face scrutiny from those who believe it infringes upon the freedom to transact in cryptocurrencies. The outcome of this debate will have implications not only for Argentina but also for the wider cryptocurrency industry.

新的监管框架将如何影响阿根廷加密货币市场还有待观察。虽然登记处的目的是解决洗钱问题，但它可能会面临那些认为它侵犯了加密货币交易自由的人的审查。这场辩论的结果不仅会对阿根廷产生影响，还会对更广泛的加密货币行业产生影响。
