Regulatory News
监管动态
1. FCMs in the United States Get Regulatory Guidance
期货商（FCM）获美国监管指导
The CFTC (Commodity Futures Trading Commission), which regulates the US derivatives market, has handed down regulatory guidance as it relates to the holding of a customer's digital currencies by future commission merchants. For reference, JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs are both FCMs.
为提供透明度和稳定性，负责监管美国衍生产品市场的商品期货交易委员会（CFTC）近日发布了监管指南，旨在对期货佣金商所持有的客户数字货币进行了相关指导。摩根大通和高盛均为期货商。
This guidance seeks to protect an FCM’s customers from the volatility that another customer holding digital currencies can present. A requirement of note here is one that would make it mandatory for FCMs to deposit a customer’s digital funds with a “bank or trust company” with said funds being available “for withdrawal at request”. The requirement goes further, but in summation this regulatory guidance is meant to provide transparency and stability. (CoinGeek)
本指南旨在保护期货商客户不会受到持有数字货币的其他客户可能带来的波动影响。值得注意的是，指南要求期货商必须将客户的数字资金存入“银行或信托公司”，并保证这些资金“可根据要求进行提取”。(CoinGeek)
2. Digital Assets to Receive More Regulatory Clarity From the US Government
美国政府关于数字资产的最新监管动态
In yet another astounding and exciting move from the US, the US Federal Reserve as well as the Treasury Department have both just proposed a re-definition of money that includes digital currencies. This comes as government agencies seek to combat people who “have been exploiting the threshold loophole to launder illicit funds”. That is, as of now, transaction data is only recorded for transactions of $3,000 and over under the Bank Secrecy Act. A proposed amendment will lower that to $250. The proposed rules extend to digital assets as well, and are a substantial and correct step in the direction of regulatory clarity. (CoinGeek)
美国政府又公布了一项令人震惊与振奋的举措：为打击那些“一直在利用门槛漏洞洗钱以获取非法资金”的犯罪行为，美联储和财政部均提议对包括数字货币在内的货币进行重新定义。此前，根据《银行保密法》规定，相关部门仅对总额超过3,000美元的交易数据进行记录，而拟议的修正案则会将这一金额降低至250美元并同样适用于数字资产交易。此举标志着美国政府已朝着监管清晰方向迈出了实质性的正确一步。(CoinGeek)
Industry Updates
行业要闻
1. A Different Sort of DeFi Startup
一家非同寻常的DeFi初创企业
Decentralized lending startup, Yield, is standing out from its DeFi counterparts by offering a “stable long-term borrowing and lending” option in the oft-volatile decentralized finance space. Incubated by Paradigm, this novel lender likens itself to a Treasury bill. For the uninitiated, a traditional Treasury bill is a low-risk, stable security that is backed by the Treasury Department. Yield’s purpose is stated quite well by their whitepaper, which says that they “want to build a liquidity provision formula that works in ‘yield space’ rather than ‘price’ space. Specifically, they want the interest rate – not the price – to be a pure function of reserves.”(NASDAQ)
去中心化借贷初创企业Yield凭借为经常波动的去中心化融资领域提供“稳定的长期借贷”选择而在DeFi同行中脱颖而出。在Paradigm的孵化下，这个新的借贷平台将自己比作是美国国债。对于外行人士来说，传统的美国国债是一种背靠美国财政部的低风险稳定证券。Yield已在其白皮书中对其发展愿景做以阐述，即 “想要在‘收益空间’而非‘价格空间’中创建有效的流动性提升方式。具体而言，我们希望利率 —— 而不是价格 —— 具有纯粹的储备功能。”
(NASDAQ)
2. A Powerful Acquisition
一个意义非凡的收购计划
INX limited has announced that it is set to acquire Openfinance Securities. While INX itself is a company with strong government integration in that it received SEC clearance for its Ethereum-based security token IPO, Openfinance has also achieved a membership agreement with FINRA. All that makes this acquisition that much stronger. (AMBCrypto)
日前，INX limited正式宣布将收购Openfinance Securities。INX与政府有着紧密合作关系，其基于以太坊的数字证券IPO已获得了美国证券交易委员会的批准。Openfinance此前也与FINRA达成了成员协议。这也意味着此次收购具有特别意义。(AMBCrypto)

投融资进展
1. Polymarket Has Garnered Attention that is Worth $4 Million
Polymarket成功完成400万融资轮
A momentous week for decentralized information marketplace Polymarket, as they, early this week, closed a very successful funding round, totaling $4 million. To give a little background on the company that has captured the attention of the likes of Polychain and Naval Ravikant, Polymarket allows users to bet crypto on “hotly debated topics, ranging from politics and health through to business and science.” (CoinDesk)
刚刚过去的一周对于去中心化信息市场Polymarke来说具有重要意义。本周早些时候，Polymarket宣布成功完成了一轮总价值高达400万美元的融资并吸引到了包括Polychain和Naval Ravikant在内的投资目光。Polymark允许用户投资“政治、健康、商业和科学等激进领域”的加密资产。(CoinDesk)
2. Professional Investors See the Advantage of Digital Assets
专业投资人士青睐数字资产
A survey conducted by CoinTelegraph Consulting has just come back with exciting and quantifying news about professional investor sentiment towards digital assets. The detailed report found that “61.15% of professional investors [in Europe] in the survey either already [own] digital assets or [are] planning to buy in the future.” These are truly exciting times for the adoption of digital assets! (CoinTelegraph)
CoinTelegraph Consulting的最新报告反映出专业投资人士对数字资产的积极态度。报告指出，“调查中（欧洲）61.15%的专业投资者[已拥有]数字资产或[计划]在将来购买此类资产。”这也印证了数字资产大众采用的新纪元已经到来! (CoinTelegraph)
