CFTC 主席 Rostin Behnam 在參議院農業、營養和林業委員會最近舉行的聽證會上發表了幾項有關加密貨幣的重要聲明。

He reiterated that Bitcoin and Ethereum are classified as commodities under the Commodities Exchange Act. Their classification follows a recent decision made by a district court in Illinois, which affirmed their status.

他重申，根據《商品交易法》，比特幣和以太坊被歸類為商品。他們的分類是在伊利諾伊州地方法院最近做出的一項決定之後進行的，該決定確認了他們的地位。

As reported by Fox Business journalist Eleanor Terrett, CFTC Chairman Behnam stated that Bitcoin and Ethereum are recognized as digital commodities under the Commodity Exchange Act, according to Coinpedia. Here’s what she posted on her X handle:

根據 Coinpedia 報道，福斯商業新聞記者 Eleanor Terrett 報道，CFTC 主席 Behnam 表示，根據《商品交易法》，比特幣和以太坊被視為數位商品。以下是她在 X 帳號上發布的內容：

For regulatory purposes, it is important to distinguish commodities from securities, where commodities are tradable products like oil or gold, while securities represent a share of ownership in a company. This classification puts Bitcoin and Ethereum under the jurisdiction of the CFTC, which is separate from assets overseen by the SEC.

出於監管目的，區分商品和證券非常重要，其中商品是石油或黃金等可交易產品，而證券代表公司的所有權份額。這種分類將比特幣和以太坊置於 CFTC 的管轄之下，這與 SEC 監管的資產是分開的。

70%-80% of Cryptocurrencies Not Securities: Behnam

70%-80% 的加密貨幣不是證券：Behnam

Coingape shares that Behnam disputed SEC Chairman Gary Gensler’s view, stating that 70%-80% of cryptocurrencies are not securities, highlighting the ongoing debate on how digital assets should be regulated.

Coingape 表示，Behnam 對 SEC 主席 Gary Gensler 的觀點提出異議，稱 70%-80% 的加密貨幣不是證券，這凸顯了關於如何監管數位資產的持續爭論。

This distinction may bring clarity as Bitcoin and Ethereum are now accepted as commodities. It could set the stage for wider acceptance in the crypto market. The precedent may also reduce some of the uncertainty that has hindered growth in the market.

隨著比特幣和以太坊現在被接受為商品，這種差異可能會帶來清晰度。它可以為加密貨幣市場更廣泛的接受奠定基礎。這項先例也可能減少一些阻礙市場成長的不確定性。

Moving forward, Behnam wants legislation to ensure the CFTC has oversight of non-security tokens, highlighting the need for strong investor protections due to the market’s volatility. His comments show a willingness to balance oversight with encouraging further development in the crypto space.

展望未來，Behnam 希望立法確保 CFTC 對非證券代幣進行監督，並強調由於市場波動而需要強有力的投資者保護。他的評論表明願意平衡監管與鼓勵加密貨幣領域的進一步發展。

The world of Defi is currently experiencing rapid technological and regulatory developments. At the heart of understanding how the regulations are changing is the distinction between commodities and securities. Behnam’s comments highlight the CFTC’s efforts to adapt regulations to keep up with the dynamic nature of the digital frontier.
