華爾街投資銀行康托爾·菲茨杰拉德（Cantor Fitzgerald）已正式進入比特幣貸款

華爾街投資銀行康托爾·菲茨杰拉德（Cantor Fitzgerald）已正式踏上比特幣貸款，本週執行了其第一批交易，這是一項計劃的20億美元信貸計劃的一部分，以機構的加密參與者為目標。

Wall Street investment bank Cantor Fitzgerald has begun offering bitcoin lending to institutional clients, executing its first batch of deals this week.

華爾街投資銀行康托爾·菲茨杰拉德（Cantor Fitzgerald）已開始向機構客戶提供比特幣貸款，並在本週執行第一批交易。

The bank is aiming to provide up to $2 billion in credit to crypto hedge funds and other institutional investors, according to sources familiar with the matter.

據熟悉此事的消息人士稱，該銀行的目標是向加密對沖基金和其他機構投資者提供多達20億美元的信貸。

The initiative, first reported by The Block in July, will be launched with Maple Finance’s crypto lending platform and FalconX, a prime broker for institutional crypto trading.

該倡議於7月首次報導，將由Maple Finance的加密貸款平台和Falconx（機構加密貨幣交易的主要經紀人）發起。

The move marks a significant step for Cantor as it deepens its engagement in digital finance.

此舉是康托爾（Cantor）加深對數字融資的參與度的重要一步。

Announced in July, Cantor’s lending platform is designed to service the growing demand for capital among institutions holding bitcoin.

Cantor的貸款平台於7月宣布，旨在為持有比特幣的機構中對資本的不斷增長的需求提供服務。

“Institutions holding bitcoin are looking for better access to capital, and we’re stepping in to meet that demand,” said Christian Wall, co-CEO and global head of fixed income at Cantor.

“持有比特幣的機構正在尋求更好的資本獲取，我們正在介入以滿足這一需求，” Cantor的聯合首席執行官兼全球固定收益負責人克里斯蒂安·沃爾（Christian Wall）說。

Custody services for the lending program will be provided by Anchorage Digital and Copper.co, both specializing in digital asset security.

貸款計劃的監護權服務將由Anchorage Digital和Copper.co提供，均專門從事數字資產安全。

The launch also comes as Cantor strengthens its ties with Tether, the issuer of the largest stablecoin, USDT.

該發布也隨著Cantor與最大的Stablecoin USDT的發行人Tether的聯繫加強了聯繫。

Cantor will continue managing U.S. Treasuries for Tether, a role it began in 2022.

康托爾將繼續管理美國國債，這是2022年開始的。

The partnership with Tether is part of Cantor’s broader strategy to integrate crypto into traditional finance.

與Tether的合作關係是Cantor將加密貨幣融入傳統金融的更廣泛戰略的一部分。

The bank’s former CEO, Howard Lutnick, now the U.S. Secretary of Commerce, has been a vocal advocate for bringing crypto into the mainstream.

該銀行的前首席執行官霍華德·盧特尼克（Howard Lutnick）現在是美國商務部長，一直是將加密貨幣帶入主流的人聲。

Cantor Fitzgerald has played a key role in supporting Tether, especially during periods when the stablecoin issuer faced difficulties maintaining relationships with other financial institutions.

坎托·菲茨杰拉德（Cantor Fitzgerald）在支持系車方面發揮了關鍵作用，尤其是在Stablecoin發行人面臨與其他金融機構關係的困難時期。

A significant portion of Tether’s reserves, mainly in U.S. Treasury bills, are reportedly held by Cantor.

據報導，Tether的儲備中很大一部分，主要是在美國國債法案中。

“This isn’t just about bitcoin, it’s about combining Wall Street infrastructure with crypto-native expertise to deliver something neither side can do alone,” said Brandon Lutnick, Cantor’s chairman.

“這不僅僅是比特幣，還涉及將華爾街基礎設施與加密本地專業知識相結合，以提供雙方都無法做的事情，”康托爾·盧特尼克（Brandon Lutnick）說。

Maple Finance’s CEO Sidney Powell noted that the partnership will help cater to the increasing institutional demand for regulated crypto exposure.

Maple Finance的首席執行官西德尼·鮑威爾（Sidney Powell）指出，該合作夥伴關係將有助於滿足對監管加密貨幣暴露的機構需求不斷增長的需求。

Josh Barkhordar, FalconX’s U.S. sales head, described the move as “a needed step toward building institutional-grade credit markets for digital assets.”

Falconx的美國銷售負責人喬什·巴克霍爾（Josh Barkhordar）將此舉描述為“建立數字資產的機構信貸市場的必要步驟”。

Cantor’s announcement follows an April report by the Financial Times that the bank was working on a $3 billion bitcoin investment initiative with SoftBank, Tether, and Bitfinex.

康托爾（Cantor）的公告是《金融時報》（Financial Times）4月份的一份報告，該報告稱，該銀行正在使用軟銀，繫帶和比特菲恩（Bitfinex）制定一項30億美元的比特幣投資計劃。
