在过去的一年里，Tether 在识别和冻结与非法活动相关的地址方面积极发挥了主导作用，持有大量与此类非法活动相关的数字资产。值得注意的是，2022 年，该公司冻结了 32 个地址，其中包含价值 873,118.34 美元的资产，这些资产与以色列和乌克兰的犯罪活动有关。

Amidst recent reports suggesting persistent exploitation of Tether's USDT stablecoin by sanctioned nations and terrorist groups to circumvent restrictions, Tether's proactive compliance efforts have taken center stage.

最近有报道称，受制裁国家和恐怖组织持续利用 Tether 的 USDT 稳定币来规避限制，而 Tether 积极主动的合规努力已成为焦点。

For instance, Reuters reported that Venezuela's state-owned oil behemoth, PDVSA, has utilized USDT for crude oil and fuel exports amidst renewed US sanctions.

例如，路透社报道称，在美国重新实施制裁的情况下，委内瑞拉国有石油巨头 PDVSA 使用 USDT 进行原油和燃料出口。

Furthermore, US Treasury Deputy Secretary Adewale Adeyemo recently alerted Congress to Russia's escalating adoption of alternative payment avenues, including USDT, to evade economic sanctions.

此外，美国财政部副部长阿德瓦勒·阿德耶莫 (Adewale Adeyemo) 最近提醒国会，俄罗斯不断采用 USDT 等替代支付途径来逃避经济制裁。

A United Nations report highlighted the prevalence of cryptocurrency-based money laundering, primarily through Tether (USDT) transactions on the TRON blockchain – with illegal online gambling platforms serving as primary facilitators.

联合国的一份报告强调了基于加密货币的洗钱活动的盛行，主要是通过 TRON 区块链上的 Tether (USDT) 交易，而非法在线赌博平台是主要推动者。

These alarming developments have prompted US Senator Elizabeth Warren to advocate for robust regulatory measures encompassing anti-money laundering authorities for all proposed stablecoin regulations. According to the lawmaker, excluding stablecoin issuers, alongside other DeFi intermediaries, from any stablecoin legislation's AML/CFT requirements would inadvertently allow nefarious actors to exploit the increased crypto trading activities that the law would provide.

这些令人震惊的事态发展促使美国参议员伊丽莎白·沃伦（Elizabeth Warren）主张对所有拟议的稳定币法规采取强有力的监管措施，其中包括反洗钱机构。这位立法者表示，将稳定币发行者以及其他 DeFi 中介机构排除在任何稳定币立法的 AML/CFT 要求之外，将无意中让不法分子利用法律规定的增加的加密货币交易活动。

Tether's resolute commitment to compliance and responsible operations has earned widespread recognition within the industry. Its proactive actions in freezing addresses associated with illicit activities have set a benchmark for other stablecoin issuers to emulate.

Tether 对合规和负责任运营的坚定承诺赢得了行业内的广泛认可。其冻结与非法活动相关的地址的积极行动为其他稳定币发行人树立了效仿的基准。

Tether's USDT, with a market capitalization of approximately $110 billion, remains the largest stablecoin in the world. Its widespread adoption and liquidity have made it a popular medium of exchange for both legitimate and illicit transactions.

Tether 的 USDT 市值约为 1100 亿美元，仍然是全球最大的稳定币。它的广泛采用和流动性使其成为合法和非法交易的流行交换媒介。

As the regulatory landscape for digital assets continues to evolve, Tether's unwavering dedication to compliance and its commitment to combating illicit activities will remain critical factors in ensuring the long-term integrity and stability of the cryptocurrency ecosystem.

随着数字资产监管环境的不断发展，Tether 对合规性的坚定不移以及对打击非法活动的承诺将仍然是确保加密货币生态系统长期完整性和稳定性的关键因素。
