參議院批准對天才法案的程序投票來製定Stablecoin法規

昨晚，參議院批准了對Stablecoins Genius Act的程序投票，有66票贊成投票，32次反對和兩個棄權。

Last night the Senate approved a procedural vote for the GENIUS Act for stablecoins, with 66 voting in favor, 32 against and two abstentions. Sixteen Democrats supported the vote, led by Senators Gillibrand, Alsobrooks, Gallego and Warner. The same vote failed on 8 May.

昨晚，參議院批准了對Stablecoins Genius Act的程序投票，有66票贊成投票，32次反對和兩個棄權。 16名民主黨人支持參議員吉利布蘭德，阿爾索布魯克，加勒戈和華納的投票。同樣的投票在5月8日失敗。

The vote was about cloture, or an agreement to avoid endless debate (filibuster) which requires the support of 60% of the senators present. A full senate vote is still needed to pass the bill itself.

投票是關於CLOTURE的，或者是避免無休止的辯論（Filibuster）的協議，該辯論需要60％的參議員的支持。仍然需要進行全面的參議院投票來通過該法案本身。

Democrat Senator Andy Kim supported the bill at the Banking Committee level, but did not support cloture last night. On video he can be seen discussing the draft with fellow Democrat Senator Kirsten Gillibrand. It appears there’s still work to be done for Democrat support in the final vote as Senator Gillibrand was seen having a strident discussion on the floor with Republican bill sponsor Senator Bill Hagerty. She was also on the receiving end of comments from Senator Warren.

民主黨參議員安迪·金（Andy Kim）在銀行委員會一級支持該法案，但昨晚不支持Cloture。在視頻中，可以看到他與民主黨參議員柯斯滕·吉利布蘭德（Kirsten Gillibrand）討論草案。在最後一票中，似乎仍有工作要做，因為吉利布蘭德參議員被認為與共和黨比爾·贊助商比爾·哈格蒂（Bill Hagerty）進行了激烈的討論。她也處於參議員沃倫（Warren）評論的接收端。

Some Democrat senators come around, others don’t

一些民主黨參議員來了，有些人沒有

Democrat Senator Mark Warner published comments earlier in the day, saying “Many senators, myself included, have very real concerns about the Trump family’s use of crypto technologies to evade oversight, hide shady financial dealings, and personally profit at the expense of everyday Americans.”

民主黨參議員馬克·華納（Mark Warner）當天早些時候發表了評論，他說：“許多參議員，包括我本人，對特朗普家族使用加密技術來逃避監督，隱藏陰暗的財務往來並親自以犧牲日常美國人為代價的親自獲利。”

He continued, “But we cannot allow that corruption to blind us to the broader reality: blockchain technology is here to stay. If American lawmakers don’t shape it, others will – and not in ways that serve our interests or democratic values. Innovation in this space is happening, with or without us.”

他繼續說：“但是我們不能讓這種腐敗使我們對更廣泛的現實視而不見：區塊鏈技術將留在這裡。如果美國立法者不塑造它，其他人就會 - 而不是以我們的利益或民主價值觀的方式。在這個領域中，有或沒有我們的創新。”

Senator Elizabeth Warren disagreed, saying on the floor, “What has changed in the bill since the last vote? The answer? Not much. Its basic flaws remain unaddressed. While a strong stablecoin bill is the best possible outcome, this weak bill is worse than no bill at all.”

伊麗莎白·沃倫（Elizabeth Warren）參議員不同意，在地板上說：“自上次投票以來，法案發生了什麼變化？答案？沒有什麼。它的基本缺陷仍然沒有解決。雖然強大的穩定法案是最好的結果，但這項薄弱的賬單比根本沒有賬單要差。”

She previously raised a number of issues late last week, which we recently analyzed alongside a new draft of the GENIUS Act that has several changes, although none are massive. It includes some wording to address stablecoins issued by BigTech firms, without imposing an outright ban. Instead it gives some discretion to a committee involving the Treasury, Federal Reserve and FDIC.

她此前曾在上週晚些時候提出了許多問題，我們最近與《天才法案》的新草稿一起進行了分析，該草案有多次變化，儘管沒有任何變化。它包括一些措辭，以解決BigTech公司發行的穩定幣，而無需實施完全禁令。取而代之的是，它為涉及財政部，美聯儲和FDIC的委員會提供了一些酌處權。

Last week Senator Gillibrand highlighted that while there are ethics elements to the stablecoin bill, it is not an ethics bill, quipping that it would be rather a long one if it had to deal with Trump ethics issues.

上週參議員吉利布蘭（Gillibrand）強調，儘管有道德規範的倫理元素，但這不是道德法案，如果必須處理特朗普道德問題，那將是一個漫長的道德法案。

Trump conflict of interest concerns

特朗普的利益衝突問題

There are several conflict of interest concerns regarding the stablecoin bill and cryptocurrency. The biggest is the issue of the $TRUMP memecoin, which has attracted foreign investors and large token holders get access to a dinner with President Trump.

關於Stablecoin法案和加密貨幣存在一些利益衝突問題。最大的是特朗普紀念$的問題，該問題吸引了外國投資者，大量的代幣持有人可以與特朗普總統共進晚餐。

Additionally, members of the Trump family are backers of World Liberty Financial which issued the USD1 stablecoin. A UAE company chaired by the country’s national security advisor bought $2 billion of the stablecoin to make a payment. Senator Gillibrand said the $TRUMP coin was illegal, but regarding the stablecoin, that family members must simply comply with the laws like everyone else.

此外，特朗普家族的成員是世界自由金融的支持者，它發行了USD1 Stablecoin。該國國家安全顧問主持的一家阿聯酋公司以20億美元的價格付款。吉利布蘭參議員說，特朗普硬幣是非法的，但是關於穩定的硬幣，家庭成員必須像其他所有人一樣遵守法律。

We ran a poll to gather reader views on whether there are conflicts of interest. Early results were that 75% of people felt there were, but that figure declined over time. With more than 160 votes posted, the percentage seeing conflicts has dropped to 60%, with 7% unsure.

我們進行了一項民意調查，以收集讀者對是否存在利益衝突的看法。早期的結果是，有75％的人覺得那裡有，但是隨著時間的流逝，這個數字有所下降。由於發布了160票，因此看到衝突的百分比已下降到60％，不確定7％。
