Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg was at least half right when he recently told the United States Congress that there is no US monopoly on regulation of next-generation payments technology.

监管升级!美国将制定法案以明确加密法规

根据Coindesk 报道,美国国会可能很快会尝试明确其数字资产法规。共和党众议院议员Patrick McHenry(北卡)和民主党众议院议员Stephen Lynch(麻省)星期二提出一项法案,提议创建一个由行业专家以及美国证券交易委员会(SEC)和商品期货交易委员会(CFTC)代表组成的工作组,以评估美国现有数字资产的法律法规框架。 该法案的另外三个提案者是共和党议员Glenn Thompson(宾州),Ted Budd(北卡)和Warren Davidson(俄亥俄)。 该立法的最终目的为建立“ 2021消除创新壁垒法案”,旨在阐明:当加密货币被定义为一种证券时,SEC对其拥有管辖权的时间;以及当加密货币被定义为一种商品时,CFTC对其拥有管辖权的时间。 根据该法案的条款,国会将在法案通过后的90天内成立一个由SEC和CFTC代表组成的工作组。非政府代表将来自金融技术公司,金融服务机构,使用金融技术的小型企业,投资者保护团体,支持对服务欠佳企业进行投资的组织以及至少一名学术研究人员。 法案要求,一年之内该小组需要提交一份报告,分析当前的法规,它们对一级和二级市场的影响以及现有制度如何影响了美国的竞争地位。该报告还将研究目前如何依法处理监管,私钥管理和网络安全的问题,以及未来在预防欺诈,投资者保护和其他相关问题上的最佳策略是什么。该报告还需要包括改善一级和二级数字资产市场的建议,包括“公平性,秩序性,完整性,效率,透明度,可用性和功效” 数字商会首席政策官Amy Davine Kim表示,这项立法旨在为美国的数字资产建立一个有组织的,全面的监管框架。 Kim说:“它将以正式合规的方式将SEC和CFTC结合在一起,以解决多年来影响该领域法律透明度的一些关键问题。现在,我们有机会开始与一些利益相关者有条不紊地解决这些问题。” 众议员Don Beyer说,由于得到了两党的广泛支持,该法案原本定于周一提出,并由众议院全体议员进行口头表决。但由于自由党团强制推迟了无争议立法的投票,该事宜被推迟了。 据悉,美国的法律法规在加密领域还并不完善,对于在何种情况下可以将某种加密货币视为安全的,并没有明确的规定,而SEC过去的一些执法行动为此提供了许多指导。SEC委员Hester Peirce曾试图在2020年解决该问题,她曾提议为加密项目提供三年安全港期。即,加密初创公司将从首次代币发行开始拥有三年的宽限期,以达到足够的去中心化水平,从而通过美国最高法院的机构证券测试。 图片来源:Bloomberg 作者 Sara Zhang 本文来自比推Bitpush.News

什么是MSB牌照,MSB牌照的优势和作用?

MSB是Money Services Business的简称,属于FinCEN(美国财政部下设机构金融犯罪执法局 )管,属于注册许可制。从事金钱服务相关的业务都必须申请该许可。这类似于中国工商登记里加上一项:资金服务业务。 向美国人提供服务的数字资产 “管理方” (例如资产发行方) 与 “兑换方” (例如交易所) 属于美国银行保密法案 (BSA) 下的 MSB,需要在业务开始 180 天内完成 FinCEN 注册。但MSB 是合规进行数字资产交易业务的必要非充分条件。由于美国联邦层面目前对币币交易没有其他明确监管要求,我们熟知的美国本土的B网和P网都是在只持有 MSB 的前提下开展的币币交易业务 之所以MSB牌照的影响大,会影响到其他区块链投资方纷纷办理这个金融牌照像火币,Coinbase,OKEX.都有注册美国MSB牌照。2018年3月,美国财政部和证监会曾明确强调,MSB是虚拟货币交易所及其管理者,在美国境内从事数字资产的相关业务,必须在FinCEN注册MSB牌照。 但持有MSB牌照是在美国合规进行数字资产交易业务的必要非充分条件。美国联邦层面目前对于币币交易没有明确的监管要求,但是由于美国独特的政治体系,各州对于币币交易的牌照要求和联邦监管政策存在差异 MSB牌照的优势和作用: 投资者认可 美国的公司法律及金融业监管非常完善,拥有美国牌照,会让您的数字货币交易平台更受全球投资者的认可。 获得权威批准 获得美国财政部的权威批准,您可以在美国及全球开展相关业务,即代表对数字货币平台的合规监管。 成为一线平台 MSB牌照也是全球数字货币交易机构标准配备的牌照。Coinbase,Bitfinex,Poloniex,火币网等平台均持有此牌照开展经营。 多元化服务 MSB牌照准许货币兑换及发送服务,使您可以更好地满足客户需求,提供更加多元化的服务。 “Coinbase和火币的一小步,数字货币的一大步。”可以说,这个史诗级的利好为这轮BTC强势走高提供了强有力的基础。 不得不说美国MSB数字货币第一块牌照的诞生也为交易所开了一个好头。接下来美国的交易所应该会拿到越来越多的牌照,数字货币的买卖也将陆续变得合法、规范化。甚至可以预见其他国家也会兴起这股浪潮,让贸易和投资真正做到无国界化,与生俱来的特性,让金融本身变得更加简单方便。
