參議院民主黨人伊麗莎白·沃倫（Elizabeth Warren）和理查德·布盧門塔爾（Richard Blumenthal）希望梅塔（Meta）解釋其穩定計劃

議員在周三發送給社交媒體巨頭的一封信中，要求該公司以前被稱為Facebook的公司詳細介紹其穩定的野心，並指出了Meta騙局遇到的有關問題的先前報告

Senate Democrats Elizabeth Warren and Richard Blumenthal are seeking answers from Meta regarding its plans for a stablecoin. In a letter on Wednesday, the lawmakers expressed their concerns about the potential implications of Meta, the parent company of Facebook, controlling its own cryptocurrency.

參議院民主黨人伊麗莎白·沃倫（Elizabeth Warren）和理查德·布魯門塔爾（Richard Blumenthal）正在尋求梅塔（Meta）關於其穩定計劃的答案。立法者在周三的一封信中表達了他們對Facebook母公司Meta的潛在影響的擔憂，控制了自己的加密貨幣。

As the Senate prepares to vote on the GENIUS Act, its stablecoin bill, Senator Blumenthal and Senator Warren penned a message to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, highlighting their interest in understanding the company’s involvement in the legislation.

當參議院準備對《天才法》進行投票時，其Stablecoin法案，參議員Blumenthal和參議員Warren向Meta首席執行官馬克·扎克伯格（Mark Zuckerberg）發表了信息，強調了他們對了解該公司參與立法的興趣。

Earlier this year, Fortune reported that Meta was considering integrating stablecoins for payment purposes. The senators' inquiries focused on this aspect, aiming to clarify Meta's role in the Senate bill and its feedback on the legislation.

今年早些時候，《財富》報導說，梅塔正在考慮用於付款目的的Stablecoins。參議員的詢問重點是這一方面，目的是闡明元在參議院法案中的作用及其對立法的反饋。

"We are concerned that, despite the clear bipartisan and international opposition to Meta's previous attempts to intervene in the financial system, your company may be planning to integrate itself into the U.S. payments ecosystem through an affiliation with a stablecoin issuer," the senators wrote in the letter.

參議員在信中寫道：“儘管兩黨和國際反對梅塔先前試圖干預金融體系的反對，但貴公司可能正在計劃通過與Stablecoin發行人的隸屬關係將自己納入美國付款生態系統。”

The senators pointed out that an amendment to the stablecoin bill, which is expected to receive a vote on Wednesday, would specifically prevent a tech firm like Meta, with over $100 billion in assets, from affiliating with or owning a stablecoin issuer. They added that they supported the amendment.

參議員指出，預計將在周三進行投票的Stablecoin法案的修正案將特別防止像Meta這樣的科技公司擁有超過1000億美元的資產，無法與穩定的發行人聯繫或擁有穩定的發行人。他們補充說，他們支持修正案。

"We are also troubled by reports that, despite this amendment and the intent of Congress, you may be lobbying for provisions in the bill that would enable such affiliations," the senators stated.

參議員說：“儘管有這項修正和國會的意圖，但我們也感到困擾。

Their letter also touched upon the company's past issues with scams, "alleged anticompetitive conduct," and privacy problems.

他們的信也涉及公司過去的騙局，“據稱的反競爭行為”和隱私問題。

"If Meta controlled its own stablecoin, the company could further pry into consumers' transactions and commercial activity," the letter said. "The massive amounts of consumer data it would ingest could help Meta fuel surveillance pricing schemes on its platform, more intrusive targeted advertising, or otherwise help the company monetize sensitive private information through sales to third party data brokers."

這封信說：“如果元控制自己的穩定幣，該公司可能會進一步竊取消費者的交易和商業活動。” “它將攝入的大量消費數據可以幫助其平台上的元燃料監視定價方案，更具侵入性的目標廣告，或者以其他方式幫助公司通過向第三方數據經紀人銷售銷售敏感的私人信息。”

The senators concluded their letter by posing a series of questions to Zuckerberg, seeking insights into Meta's involvement in the stablecoin bill and its broader cryptocurrency ambitions.

參議員通過向扎克伯格提出了一系列問題來結束他們的信，尋求了解梅塔參與Stablecoin法案及其更廣泛的加密貨幣野心。

The senators' questions included:

參議員的問題包括：

* Is Meta planning to launch its own stablecoin?

* Meta計劃推出自己的Stablecoin？

* Did Meta or any entity affiliated with the company lobby for or provide feedback on the Senate or House bill?

* Meta或與公司大堂有聯繫的任何實體有關參議院或眾議院法案的反饋？

* Would Meta prefer an amendment to the bill that would permit an affiliation between a large technology company and a stablecoin issuer?

* META是否更喜歡對允許大型技術公司與Stablecoin發行人之間有隸屬關係的法案進行修正？

* What is Meta's view on the amendment that would prohibit any entity with over $100 billion in assets from affiliating with or owning a stablecoin issuer, and why?

* Meta對修正案的觀點是什麼，該修正案將禁止擁有超過1000億美元資產的任何實體與締合或擁有Stablecoin發行人的聯繫，為什麼？

* How might Meta's new stablecoin plans differ from the now-defunct Libra (later Diem) project that Meta spearheaded in 2019?

* Meta的新Stablecoin計劃與現已失去的天秤座（後來的Diem）項目有何不同？

A spokesperson for Meta did not immediately return a request for comment.

META的發言人沒有立即返回置評請求。

The letter comes the same day the Senate is set to vote on the GENIUS Act, its stablecoin bill. Though Senate Majority Leader John Thune said weeks ago that the body might consider amendments to the bill, he told Politico earlier this week that the path for amendments was less clear.

這封信是在參議院將對《天才法案》（其Stablecoin法案）投票的同一天。儘管參議院多數黨領袖約翰·圖恩（John Thune）幾週前表示，該屍體可能會考慮對該法案的修正案，但他本週早些時候告訴Politico，修正案的道路還不太清楚。

The bill is likely to pass without any amendments. Senator Ruben Gallego, an Arizona Democrat, told CoinDesk last week he expected 16 Democrats to support the bill alongside a majority of Republicans, easily clearing the 60-vote procedural threshold for cloture.

該法案可能沒有任何修正案就可以通過。亞利桑那民主黨參議員魯本·加勒戈（Ruben Gallego）上週對科德斯克（Coindesk）表示，他希望16名民主黨人與大多數共和黨人一起支持該法案，很容易清除60票的程序閾值。
