加拿大加密货币交易平台没有时间获取文件

CTP 受到与传统同事一样的待遇。新 CTP 在成为 CIRO 会员之前不会有过渡期

Crypto trading platforms (CTPs) in Canada have been given a final reminder to submit their applications to become full-fledged investment dealers and members of the Canadian securities industry’s self-regulatory organization.

加拿大的加密货币交易平台（CTP）已收到最后提醒，请提交申请，以成为成熟的投资交易商和加拿大证券行业自律组织的成员。

In a news release on Monday, the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO) and Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA) highlighted that CTPs have until March 31 to join the self-regulatory organization.

在周一的新闻稿中，加拿大投资监管组织 (CIRO) 和加拿大证券管理局 (CSA) 强调，CTP 必须在 3 月 31 日之前加入自律组织。

According to the regulators, new CTPs will not be granted an interim period before CIRO membership, as was previously permitted. In addition to obtaining CIRO membership, CTPs are also required to register in individual jurisdictions.

根据监管机构的说法，新的 CTP 在成为 CIRO 成员之前不会像之前所允许的那样有一个过渡期。除了获得 CIRO 会员资格外，CTP 还需要在各个司法管辖区进行注册。

Currently, there are 15 CTPs operating in Canada. Among them, Coinsquare became the first to gain IIROC (now known as CIRO) membership. The crypto exchange applied for membership in November 2020 and was notified of its approval in October 2022.

目前，加拿大有 15 个 CTP 运营。其中，Coinsquare成为第一个获得IIROC（现称为CIRO）会员的公司。该加密货币交易所于 2020 年 11 月申请会员资格，并于 2022 年 10 月收到批准通知。

The CSA first began establishing pre-registration requirements for CTPs in August 2022, initially focusing on collecting undertakings — binding agreements — on customer protections.

CSA 于 2022 年 8 月首次开始制定 CTP 的预注册要求，最初侧重于收集有关客户保护的承诺（具有约束力的协议）。

However, their stance shifted significantly in a second notice in February 2023, reflecting a heightened caution following the failures of several crypto firms during the bear market. The second set of requirements placed particular emphasis on stablecoins.

然而，他们的立场在 2023 年 2 月的第二次通知中发生了重大转变，反映出在熊市期间几家加密货币公司倒闭后他们变得更加谨慎。第二组要求特别强调稳定币。

In response to the new regulatory regime, some crypto exchanges have taken different approaches. While Kraken and Gemini moved swiftly to comply with the requirements, others, including OKX, dYdX, Paxos, ByBit and Binance, announced their exits from the Canadian market.

为了应对新的监管制度，一些加密货币交易所采取了不同的做法。尽管 Kraken 和 Gemini 迅速采取行动遵守这些要求，但 OKX、dYdX、Paxos、ByBit 和 Binance 等其他公司却宣布退出加拿大市场。

The CSA also issued guidance for investment firms holding crypto in July 2023 and further expanded on that guidance in a proposal in January. Notably, Canada has had spot Bitcoin ETFs since 2021.

CSA 还于 2023 年 7 月发布了针对持有加密货币的投资公司的指南，并在 1 月份的提案中进一步扩展了该指南。值得注意的是，加拿大自 2021 年以来就拥有现货比特币 ETF。
