美國 SEC 要求交易所在 ETF 截止日期前更新監管文件後，比特幣和以太幣價格上漲

在美國證券交易委員會要求想要交易以太幣交易所交易基金（ETF）的交易所更新監管文件後，比特幣和以太幣等加密貨幣週二大幅上漲。

Bitcoin and ether prices rose on Tuesday after the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) asked aspiring ether exchange-traded fund (ETF) exchanges to update 19b-4 filings ahead of the May 23 deadline for the approval of the world's second-largest cryptocurrency's ETF.

在美國證券交易委員會(SEC) 要求有抱負的以太幣交易所交易基金(ETF) 交易所在5 月23 日批准全球第二大加密貨幣的最後期限之前更新19b-4 備案文件後，比特幣和以太幣價格週二上漲ETF。

Bitcoin rose as high as $71,957 and ether hit $3,720.80, levels last seen on April 9.

比特幣漲至 71,957 美元，以太幣觸及 3,720.80 美元，上次達到 4 月 9 日的水平。

“Bitcoin on Monday jumped more than 6 per cent on international exchanges as $70,000 was breached fairly easily by the bulls only to reach the resistance of $72,000 after 40 days. This jump, however, was led by ETH which jumped more than 15 per cent as ETH gains surpassed BTC by distance after a really long time,” CoinSwitch Markets Desk said in a statement.

「週一，比特幣在國際交易所上漲超過 6%，多頭很容易突破 7 萬美元，但在 40 天後才達到 7.2 萬美元的阻力位。然而，這次上漲是由 ETH 帶動的，ETH 漲幅超過 15%，因為 ETH 漲幅在很長一段時間後遠遠超過了 BTC，」CoinSwitch Markets Desk 在一份聲明中表示。

As on 12:42 pm on Tuesday, Bitcoin (BTC) prices stood at $71,334.89, which is about 6.5 per cent higher as compared to Tuesday. The current market cap of bitcoin currently stands at $1,405.39 billion. The 24-hour trading volume is $52.06 billion. Bitcoin is nearly 6.45 per cent up in the last 24 hours with a circulating supply of 19.70 million, according to Binance’s real-time data.

截至週二中午 12:42，比特幣 (BTC) 價格為 71,334.89 美元，較週二上漲約 6.5%。目前比特幣的市值為 14,053.9 億美元。 24小時交易量為520.6億美元。根據幣安的即時數據，比特幣在過去 24 小時內上漲了近 6.45%，流通量為 1,970 萬枚。

Ethereum (ETH) is currently trading at $3,684.90 with a current market cap of $442.66 billion. The 24-hour trading volume is $36.30 billion. Ethereum is about 19.30 per cent in the last 24 hours with a circulating supply of 120.13 million.

以太坊 (ETH) 目前交易價格為 3,684.90 美元，目前市值為 4,426.6 億美元。 24小時交易量為363億美元。以太坊近24小時流通量約19.30%，流通量為1.2013億枚。

While Bitcoin is the world’s biggest and best-known cryptocurrency, Ether is the coin linked to the ethereum blockchain network.

比特幣是世界上最大、最著名的加密貨幣，而以太幣則是與以太坊區塊鏈網路相連的硬幣。

“The major reason for ETH’s rise could be attributed to the Ethereum ETF deadline, which is May 23. While many analysts were predicting that it is highly unlikely for an ETH ETF to be approved, the probability of an ETF approval suddenly jumped from 25 per cent to 75 per cent by Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas. This happened as SEC asked aspiring ether ETF exchanges to update 19b-4 filings ahead of the May 23 deadline,” according to CoinSwitch Markets Desk.

「ETH上漲的主要原因可能是以太坊ETF的截止日期，即5月23日。雖然許多分析師預測ETH ETF獲得批准的可能性極小，但ETF獲得批准的機率突然從25%躍升至10% 。當這種情況發生時，SEC 要求有抱負的以太 ETF 交易所在 5 月 23 日截止日期之前更新 19b-4 備案，」CoinSwitch Markets Desk 表示。

However it is still unlikely that the ETH ETF will be approved this week itself — the SEC seems to be moving in a positive direction, and that is what has triggered the market, it added.

然而，ETH ETF 本週仍不太可能獲得批准——美國證券交易委員會 (SEC) 似乎正在朝著積極的方向發展，而這正是觸發市場的原因，它補充道。

With Ethereum on the move, other common layer-2 protocols built on top of Ethereum saw some gains as well with ARB and OP leading the pack with more than 18 per cent gains against USDT, CoinSwitch stated.

CoinSwitch 表示，隨著以太坊的發展，建立在以太坊之上的其他常見第 2 層協議也取得了一些收益，其中 ARB 和 OP 領先，相對於 USDT 漲幅超過 18%。

Bitcoin prices have regained traction since last October and hitting a record high of $73,803.25 in March. Bitcoin is now higher by over 82 per cent from the year’s low of $38,505 on January 23.

自去年 10 月以來，比特幣價格重新回升，並在 3 月創下 73,803.25 美元的歷史新高。目前，比特幣價格較 1 月 23 日的年低點 38,505 美元上漲了 82% 以上。

The approval and launch of spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds in the US this year has opened the asset class to new investors and reignited the excitement that evaporated when prices collapsed in the “crypto winter” of 2022.

今年美國現貨比特幣交易所交易基金的批准和推出，向新投資者開放了該資產類別，並重新點燃了 2022 年「加密貨幣冬天」價格暴跌時消失的興奮情緒。

The world’s largest cryptocurrency has surged 161% in the past two quarters, on hopes of a cut in interest rates by the US Federal Reserve and optimism around the launch of spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

由於聯準會降息的希望以及對現貨比特幣交易所交易基金（ETF）推出的樂觀情緒，全球最大的加密貨幣在過去兩個季度飆升了 161%。

Cryptocurrencies exist on a decentralized digital ledger known as blockchain and investors may opt to access their holdings either through a locally stored software wallet or a hardware wallet, to avoid risks related to owning crypto with an exchange, as in the case of the former FTX.

加密貨幣存在於稱為區塊鏈的去中心化數位分類帳上，投資者可以選擇透過本地儲存的軟體錢包或硬體錢包存取其持有的資產，以避免與在交易所擁有加密貨幣相關的風險，就像前FTX 的情況一樣。

Losing access to a crypto wallet is a well-known problem. Investors forgetting their intricate passwords is a primary reason, but loss of access to two-factor authentication devices, unexpected shutdowns of cryptocurrency exchanges and cyberattacks are also common.

無法存取加密錢包是一個眾所周知的問題。投資者忘記複雜的密碼是一個主要原因，但無法存取雙重認證設備、加密貨幣交易所意外關閉和網路攻擊也很常見。

Wallet passwords are usually alphanumeric and the wallet provider also offers a set of randomized words, known as “seed phrases”, for additional security – both these are known only to the user. If investors lose the passwords and phrases, access to their wallets is cut off.

錢包密碼通常是字母數字，錢包提供者還提供一組隨機單詞，稱為“種子短語”，以提高安全性——這兩種密碼只有用戶知道。如果投資者失去密碼和短語，他們的錢包就會被切斷。

According to a Reuters report, password recovery services firms are witnessing a jump in requests.

根據路透社報道，密碼恢復服務公司的請求數量大幅增加。

A Switzerland-based firm that uses Nvidia’s graphic processing unit cards to run artificial intelligence models to access stranded wallets saw requests jump tenfold in the first quarter, compared with the year-ago period.

一家總部位於瑞士的公司使用 Nvidia 的圖形處理單元卡運行人工智慧模型來存取擱淺的錢包，該公司第一季的請求量與去年同期相比激增了十倍。

“We have seen a spike (in requests to unlock wallets) every time the price changes dramatically,” according to the Reuters report citing a top executive at the firm who did not want to be named.

路透社引述該公司不願透露姓名的高管的話說：“每當價格發生巨大變化時，我們就會看到（解鎖錢包的請求）激增。”
