CNBC anchor Joe Kernen’s last interview with SEC Chair Gary Gensler was certainly spirited. As Gensler prepares to step down on January 20, their discussion featured some pointed exchanges on crypto policies and Bitcoin’s classification.

CNBC 主持人 Joe Kernen 对 SEC 主席 Gary Gensler 的最后一次采访无疑是充满活力的。当 Gensler 准备于 1 月 20 日辞职时，他们的讨论就加密货币政策和比特币分类进行了一些尖锐的交流。

Gensler stated that the SEC never claimed Bitcoin is a security. However, when pressed by Kernen to share his thoughts, he said this:

Gensler 表示，SEC 从未声称比特币是一种证券。然而，当克南追问他的想法时，他是这样说的：

“I think Bitcoin is a highly speculative volatile asset, but with 7 billion people around the globe, 7 billion people want to trade it. Just like we had gold for 10,000 years, we have Bitcoin. It might be something else in the future as well.”

“我认为比特币是一种投机性很强的波动性资产，但全球有 70 亿人，有 70 亿人想要交易它。就像我们拥有黄金一万年一样，我们也拥有比特币。未来也可能会发生其他事情。”

Continuing his remarks on the crypto landscape, he said:

他继续对加密货币领域的评论说：

“These other thousands of projects need to show their use case and show that they actually have fundamentals underlying them or they won’t persist.”

“其他数千个项目需要展示他们的用例，并表明他们实际上有基础，否则他们不会坚持下去。”

After being (jokingly) grilled by Kernen about owning Bitcoin, Gensler admitted that he never owned any cryptos.

在被克南（开玩笑地）询问拥有比特币的问题后，金斯勒承认他从未拥有过任何加密货币。

Who is Gary Gensler?

加里·詹斯勒是谁？

During his tenure as the SEC Chair, Gensler was a staunch critic of cryptocurrencies and the industry. One of his main criticisms was for its highly speculative nature, highlighting the speculative aspect of most crypto projects and likening them to high-risk ventures with uncertain returns.

在担任 SEC 主席期间，Gensler 是加密货币和该行业的坚定批评者。他的主要批评之一是其高度投机性，强调了大多数加密项目的投机性，并将其比作回报不确定的高风险企业。

He also stated that the majority of crypto projects, excluding Bitcoin, closely resemble high-risk venture capital endeavors with limited potential returns for investors.

他还表示，大多数加密项目（不包括比特币）与高风险风险投资非常相似，投资者的潜在回报有限。

During the outgoing Chair’s tenure at the SEC, nearly 100 enforcement actions were initiated, reflecting the robust regulatory approach implemented during his leadership.

在即将卸任的 SEC 主席任职期间，发起了近 100 项执法行动，反映出他在领导期间实施的强有力的监管方法。

Despite this, cryptocurrency accessibility increased significantly during Gensler’s tenure. In January 2024, the SEC approved exchange-traded funds tracking the spot price of Bitcoin.

尽管如此，在 Gensler 任职期间，加密货币的可访问性显着增加。 2024 年 1 月，美国证券交易委员会批准追踪比特币现货价格的交易所交易基金。

These ETFs made it easier for investors to gain exposure to Bitcoin without the need for substantial upfront investments typically associated with direct Bitcoin purchases.

这些 ETF 使投资者更容易获得比特币投资，而无需通常与直接购买比特币相关的大量前期投资。

Overall, many crypto enthusiasts are happy to see him go next week, but we have yet to see how his replacement will impact the crypto world.

总的来说，许多加密货币爱好者很高兴看到他下周离开，但我们还没有看到他的继任者将如何影响加密世界。
