由于 MiCA 监管要求，Coinbase 将限制欧洲用户交易 Tether 等某些稳定币

从 12 月 13 日开始，Coinbase Europe 将下架一篮子稳定币代币，其中包括加密货币最大的与法定挂钩的货币 Tether (USDT)。

Coinbase will reportedly begin restricting European users from trading certain stablecoins, including Tether (USDT), on Dec. 13.

据报道，Coinbase 将于 12 月 13 日开始限制欧洲用户交易某些稳定币，包括 Tether (USDT)。

The move comes as part of the crypto exchange’s efforts to comply with the regulatory requirements outlined in the European Union’s Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) framework.

此举是加密货币交易所努力遵守欧盟加密资产市场（MiCA）框架中概述的监管要求的一部分。

According to an email sent to European Coinbase users and seen by crypto.news, the exchange will be “delisting a basket of stablecoin tokens” to adhere to the MiCA rules.

根据 crypto.news 看到的一封发送给欧洲 Coinbase 用户的电子邮件，该交易所将“下架一篮子稳定币”，以遵守 MiCA 规则。

The email states that Tether (USDT), Pax Dollar (PAX), Binance USD (BUSD), Circle USD Coin (USDC), TrueUSD (TUSD), GUSD, GYEN, and Maker (DAI) stablecoins will be affected by the trading prohibition.

该电子邮件指出，Tether (USDT)、Pax Dollar (PAX)、Binance USD (BUSD)、Circle USD Coin (USDC)、TrueUSD (TUSD)、GUSD、GYEN 和 Maker (DAI) 稳定币将受到交易禁令的影响。

However, the email also notes that Coinbase will continue to offer trading support for Circle stablecoins USDC and EURC, which were granted a European stablecoin license — the first of its kind — under the new MiCA laws.

不过，电子邮件还指出，Coinbase 将继续为 Circle 稳定币 USDC 和 EURC 提供交易支持，这两种稳定币根据新的 MiCA 法律获得了欧洲稳定币许可证，这是同类许可证中的第一个。

“Coinbase will continue to support trading for USDC and EURC stablecoins, which have obtained regulatory approval in the relevant jurisdictions where Coinbase operates,” the email reads.

电子邮件中写道：“Coinbase 将继续支持 USDC 和 EURC 稳定币交易，这些稳定币已获得 Coinbase 运营所在相关司法管辖区的监管批准。”

“Other stablecoin tokens, including Tether (USDT), will be delisted from Coinbase Europe. These tokens may be relisted at a later date if they achieve MiCA compliance.”

“包括 Tether (USDT) 在内的其他稳定币代币将从 Coinbase Europe 下架。如果这些代币达到 MiCA 合规性，则可能会在以后重新上市。”

At the time of writing, Tether has yet to publicly address the delisting notice. A request for commentary sent by crypto.news also remained unanswered.

截至撰写本文时，Tether 尚未公开发布下架通知。 crypto.news 发出的评论请求也仍未得到答复。

As previously reported by crypto.news, the fate of Tether in the European market has been a subject of discussion for several months, especially as MiCA was set to go into full effect by the end of December.

正如 crypto.news 之前报道的那样，几个月来，Tether 在欧洲市场的命运一直是讨论的话题，特别是 MiCA 将于 12 月底全面生效。

In past statements, Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino expressed the company’s intention to continue serving European users despite the regulatory landscape. However, specific details regarding this plan have been limited.

在过去的声明中，Tether 首席执行官 Paolo Ardoino 表示，尽管存在监管环境，该公司仍打算继续为欧洲用户提供服务。然而，有关该计划的具体细节有限。

It remains to be seen whether Tether will opt to exit the European market by 2025, as suggested by some observers, or if it will pursue other strategies to maintain its presence in the region.

Tether 是否会像一些观察家所建议的那样选择在 2025 年之前退出欧洲市场，或者是否会采取其他策略来维持其在该地区的存在，还有待观察。

Meanwhile, Ardoino did voice concerns about MiCA potentially putting stablecoins at risk back in August. Notably, the regulatory framework includes provisions that could ban certain types of stablecoins in the future.

与此同时，Ardoino 在 8 月份确实表达了对 MiCA 可能使稳定币面临风险的担忧。值得注意的是，监管框架包括未来可能禁止某些类型稳定币的条款。

“MiCA might have put stablecoins at risk, but it also highlighted the importance of having a clear regulatory framework for digital assets in the EU,” Ardoino said at the time.

Ardoino 当时表示：“MiCA 可能会让稳定币面临风险，但这也凸显了欧盟为数字资产制定明确监管框架的重要性。”

“This framework will provide legal certainty for crypto businesses and help to protect consumers. We are now waiting for the European Commission to adopt the final MiCA text and for member states to implement the regulation into national law.”

“该框架将为加密货币企业提供法律确定性，并有助于保护消费者。我们现在正在等待欧盟委员会通过 MiCA 最终文本，并等待成员国将该法规落实到国家法律中。”

With a market cap of around $140 billion and a massive circulating supply of the USDT stablecoin, Tether is the largest stablecoin operator by a significant margin.

Tether 的市值约为 1400 亿美元，USDT 稳定币流通量巨大，是最大的稳定币运营商，遥遥领先。

While the European Union certainly represents a major economic area, it’s also worth noting that a large portion of Tether’s business is concentrated in emerging markets such as Latin America and Southeast Asia.

虽然欧盟无疑代表了一个主要的经济区域，但值得注意的是，Tether 的很大一部分业务集中在拉丁美洲和东南亚等新兴市场。

In other news, the company also managed to pocket billions in record profits throughout the year, which were used to make investments in Bitcoin (BTC), mining facilities, and data centers.

在其他消息中，该公司全年还成功赚取了数十亿美元的创纪录利润，这些利润用于投资比特币（BTC）、采矿设施和数据中心。

Moreover, Tether’s substantial holdings of U.S. Treasury Bills could potentially position the startup to benefit greatly from American stablecoin policies, especially if we consider the recent developments and increased attention in this domain.

此外，Tether 持有大量美国国债，这可能会使这家初创公司从美国稳定币政策中获益匪浅，特别是如果我们考虑到该领域的最新发展和关注度的增加。

However, Tether has not explicitly announced any specific strategies to bolster its presence within United States borders.

然而，Tether 尚未明确宣布任何加强其在美国境内存在的具体战略。
