Goldman Sachs Retreats from Bitcoin Trading Desk Plan

高盛退出比特幣交易台計劃

Financial giant Goldman Sachs has reportedly shelved its plans to establish a Bitcoin trading desk. Instead, the institution will focus on other cryptocurrency-related initiatives, such as holding digital coins on behalf of large fund clients. The bank has indicated that it may reconsider a trading desk in the future.

據報道，金融巨頭高盛擱置了建立比特幣交易櫃檯的計畫。相反，該機構將專注於其他與加密貨幣相關的舉措，例如代表大型基金客戶持有數位貨幣。該銀行表示，未來可能會重新考慮交易櫃檯。

Goldman Sachs's decision highlights the waning interest in Bitcoin after its precipitous decline from its peak of nearly $20,000 in December. The cryptocurrency has lost almost 70% of its value since then.

高盛的決定突顯了人們對比特幣的興趣減弱，此前比特幣從 12 月接近 20,000 美元的高峰急劇下跌。自那時以來，加密貨幣的價值已損失了近 70%。

ShapeShift Introduces Personal Information Requirement

ShapeShift 引入個人資訊需求

Trading platform ShapeShift announced on Tuesday that it will begin requiring users to provide personal information. This move has raised concerns among cryptocurrency enthusiasts that other platforms will follow suit. Anonymity and decentralization from government control have long been key selling points for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. However, as regulators worldwide grapple with oversight of the sector, this could change.

交易平台 ShapeShift 週二宣布，將開始要求用戶提供個人資訊。此舉引起了加密貨幣愛好者的擔憂，擔心其他平台也會跟進。長期以來，匿名性和政府控制的去中心化一直是比特幣和其他加密貨幣的關鍵賣點。然而，隨著世界各地的監管機構努力對該行業進行監管，這種情況可能會改變。

Iran Recognizes Cryptocurrency Mining

伊朗承認加密貨幣開採

In a separate development, the price of Bitcoin in Iran reached a record high of $24,000 on the Iranian exchange EXIR. This surge was prompted by news that the Iranian government has recognized the mining of digital coins as an industry. The Central Bank of Iran is expected to draft a policy framework for cryptocurrencies in the coming weeks. The government hopes that the potential use of alternative coins will facilitate trade between Tehran and its partners amidst renewed U.S. sanctions.

另一項進展是，伊朗交易所 EXIR 上的比特幣價格創下了 24,000 美元的歷史新高。這一激增是由伊朗政府已承認數位貨幣開採作為一個行業的消息所推動的。預計伊朗中央銀行將在未來幾週內起草加密貨幣政策框架。政府希望在美國重新實施制裁的情況下，替代硬幣的潛在使用將促進德黑蘭與其合作夥伴之間的貿易。

The cryptocurrency market remains volatile, with both positive and negative news impacting its performance. As regulators and financial institutions continue to navigate the evolving landscape, the long-term future of cryptocurrencies remains uncertain.

加密貨幣市場仍然波動，正面和負面的消息都會影響其表現。隨著監管機構和金融機構繼續應對不斷變化的情況，加密貨幣的長期未來仍然不確定。
