Coinbase 将于 4 月 1 日推出狗狗币、莱特币和比特币 bash 的期货交易

加密货币交易所 Coinbase Derivatives 计划推出狗狗币、莱特币和比特币现金的期货交易。该交易所将根据 CFTC 条例 40.2(a) 使用自我认证途径来列出这些期货合约，这些期货合约将以现金结算，并基于 Market Vector 的基准利率。将这些加密货币归类为商品引发了监管问题，因为它们源于比特币，而比特币被 SEC 视为商品。

Dogecoin might have begun as a joke, but this April Fool's Day, it's getting serious attention. Coinbase Derivatives plans to kick off futures trading for the top dog in memecoins, alongside litecoin and bitcoin cash.

狗狗币一开始可能只是一个笑话，但今年愚人节，它受到了认真的关注。 Coinbase Derivatives 计划启动模因币、莱特币和比特币现金的期货交易。

On March 7, through three separate letters to the Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), the crypto exchange announced its intention to launch monthly cash-settled futures contracts for dogecoin, litecoin and bitcoin cash. These communications, directed to CFTC Secretary Christopher Kirkpatrick, detailed the proposed contracts' sizes, settlement methods (leveraging a benchmark rate by Market Vector), and structure.

3 月 7 日，该加密货币交易所通过三封单独致商品期货交易委员会 (CFTC) 的信函，宣布打算推出狗狗币、莱特币和比特币现金的每月现金结算期货合约。这些针对 CFTC 秘书 Christopher Kirkpatrick 的通讯详细介绍了拟议合约的规模、结算方法（利用 Market Vector 的基准利率）和结构。

Coinbase highlighted in these letters that it's leveraging the self-certification route under CFTC Regulation 40.2(a) to list these futures contracts. This procedure permits exchanges to introduce new offerings without awaiting direct CFTC approval, provided they affirm the product's adherence to the Commodity Exchange Act and CFTC regulations.

Coinbase 在这些信件中强调，它正在利用 CFTC 条例 40.2(a) 规定的自我认证途径来列出这些期货合约。该程序允许交易所推出新产品，而无需等待 CFTC 的直接批准，前提是交易所确认产品遵守《商品交易法》和 CFTC 法规。

Given that all three cryptocurrencies stem from bitcoin, which the Securities and Exchange Commission recognizes as a commodity, their classification raises interesting regulatory questions. Bloomberg Intelligence ETF research analyst James Seyffart posted on X.com, "This is interesting... wonder if the SEC objects to these being classified 'commodities futures' versus 'securities futures'. Given their origins from Bitcoin, arguing these as securities would be challenging, especially after spot #Bitcoin ETF approvals. Coinbase's selection might be strategic🤔."

鉴于所有三种加密货币都源于比特币，而美国证券交易委员会将比特币视为一种商品，因此它们的分类引发了有趣的监管问题。彭博资讯 ETF 研究分析师 James Seyffart 在 X.com 上发帖称：“这很有趣……想知道 SEC 是否反对将它们归类为‘商品期货’和‘证券期货’。鉴于它们起源于比特币，将它们视为证券会具有挑战性，尤其是在#Bitcoin ETF 现货获得批准之后。Coinbase 的选择可能是战略性的🤔。”
