Coinbase Canada首席執行官Lucas Matheson為該國的新政府提供了一個案子

多倫多 - Coinbase Canada的首席執行官Lucas Matheson為加拿大新政府提供了一個案子，可以在他在多倫多的2025年共識中露面時制定國家加密戰略。

TORONTO — Lucas Matheson, CEO of Coinbase Canada, made a case for the new Canadian government to create a national crypto strategy during his appearance at Consensus 2025 in Toronto on Thursday.

多倫多 - Coinbase Canada首席執行官Lucas Matheson為新加拿大政府提供了一個案子，在周四在多倫多舉行的2025年共識中露面時制定了國家加密戰略。

Speaking on a panel titled, "What the new Canadian Government Needs to do to Lead In Crypto," Matheson outlined some key steps he believes will help position Canada as a leader in the blockchain space.

Matheson在一個題為“新加拿大政府在領導加密貨幣中需要做的事情”的小組演講，概述了他認為將有助於將加拿大定位為區塊鏈領域的領導者的一些關鍵步驟。

Matheson highlighted that Canada has long been a hub for crypto innovation, citing Ethereum's origins and the strong presence of Web3 developers at Canadian universities.

Matheson強調，加拿大長期以來一直是加密創新的樞紐，理由是以太坊的起源以及Web3開發人員在加拿大大學的強大存在。

However, he said the country risks falling behind as other nations actively shape crypto policies. "We need leadership. We need champions in government to embrace this technology and legitimize it in the eyes of the everyday Canadian," Matheson said. He emphasized the importance of having a dedicated federal crypto leader, similar to the U.S. crypto czar.

但是，他說，隨著其他國家積極塑造加密政策，該國有可能落後於落後。馬蒂森說：“我們需要領導才能。我們需要政府的冠軍來擁抱這項技術，並在日常加拿大人的眼中使其合法化。”他強調了擁有一位敬業的聯邦加密貨幣領導人的重要性，類似於美國加密沙皇。

One of his primary suggestions was for Carney to establish a government-led crypto task force within the first 100 days of the new administration.

他的主要建議之一是Carney在新政府的前100天內建立​​政府主導的加密貨幣工作隊。

This task force would develop a national crypto strategy, including defining digital assets, regulating stablecoins, and allowing banks to hold crypto securely. Matheson also proposed creating a strategic bitcoin reserve and integrating crypto mining with existing data centers.

該工作隊將製定一項國家加密戰略，包括定義數字資產，調節穩定幣，並允許銀行安全地持有加密貨幣。 Matheson還建議創建戰略性比特幣儲備並將加密礦山與現有數據中心集成。

Matheson noted that stablecoins could play a key role in making digital assets less speculative, suggesting that Canada needs a stable, Canadian-dollar-denominated coin to boost financial efficiency.

Matheson指出，Stablecoins可以在使數字資產降低投機方面發揮關鍵作用，這表明加拿大需要穩定的，加拿大美元的負面的硬幣來提高財務效率。

"One in five Canadians remit money abroad. We pay between 6% and 12% to remit money all around the world. And today, with crypto, you can click different buttons on your phone and send your friends and family 6% to 12% more money," he said.

他說：“加拿大人中有五分之一的錢在國外匯款。我們支付了6％至12％的錢，以使全球匯款匯款。今天，有了加密貨幣，您可以單擊手機上的不同按鈕，並向您的朋友和家人寄出6％至12％的錢。”

Matheson also noted that 15% of Canadians are considered underbanked in Canada, which creates "a significant opportunity for us to drive innovation and change," in the country via crypto.

Matheson還指出，在加拿大，有15％的加拿大人被認為是賬單上的，這是通過加密貨幣的“為我們推動創新和變革的重要機會”。

'Stand With Crypto'

“與加密站在一起”

To further advocate for policy change, Matheson pointed to the "Stand with Crypto" initiative.

為了進一步倡導政策變更，Matheson指出了“與加密貨幣”倡議。

This aims to educate lawmakers about blockchain's benefits and address misconceptions. He noted that the initiative is gaining traction among industry leaders and aims to build support among the members of Parliament.

這旨在教育議員有關區塊鏈的福利並解決誤解。他指出，該倡議正在在行業領導人之間獲得關注，並旨在在議會議員之間建立支持。

As Canada transitions to a new government led by Mark Carney, Matheson expressed optimism about the new administration's new mandates regarding innovative technology.

隨著加拿大向馬克·卡尼（Mark Carney）領導的新政府過渡，對新政府對創新技術的新任務表示樂觀。

"They [Liberals] are mandated to build Canada to find economic growth and opportunities for us to embrace technology. And we have a government that is highly motivated to think of opportunities to help our country gain more economic advantage. And I think crypto and other technologies will need to be embraced, and to do that, we need to educate them," he said.

他說：“他們（自由主義者）被要求建立加拿大，以尋找經濟增長和我們擁抱技術的機會。我們有一個高度動力去思考幫助我們國家獲得更多經濟優勢的機會。而且，我認為需要接受加密和其他技術，為此，我們需要做到這一點，我們需要對他們進行教育。”

However, Matheson cautioned that Canada risks being left behind in the global race to integrate crypto into the financial system unless it takes swift action.

但是，馬蒂森（Matheson）警告說，除非採取迅速採取行動，否則加拿大在全球競賽中有可能將加密貨幣納入金融體系。

He compared the current challenges in Canada as "a square peg, round hole, legal definitional problem," due to several different layers of securities regulators.

他將目前在加拿大的挑戰視為“正方形釘，圓孔，法定定義問題”，這是由於幾個不同的證券監管機構。

This means that Canadians are forced to look elsewhere for crypto-related services, potentially resulting in a loss of opportunity for the country and opening users to risks.

這意味著加拿大人被迫在其他地方尋求與加密相關的服務，這可能導致該國失去了機會，並為使用者打開了風險。

"We're at risk for not moving fast enough to embrace the types of technology and products and services in Canada, and as a regulated financial institution, it's a priority for us to make sure that we can introduce these products and services in a compliant way, so that Canadians aren't just using a VPN and jumping off and using non compliant platforms around the world."

“我們有不夠快速行動以接受加拿大的技術，產品和服務的類型的風險，作為一個受監管的金融機構，我們的優先事項是確保我們可以以合規的方式介紹這些產品和服務，以便加拿大人不僅使用VPN並跳下VPN並跳下並在世界各地使用非兼容的平台。”
