泰国任命两位加密货币领袖为金融中心顾问

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong revealed that the company once debated copying Michael Saylor’s aggressive Bitcoin-buying strategy. The 42-year-old billionaire, during a live Q&A session via X on May 9, discussed details regarding Coinbase’s balance sheet. While Armstrong considered putting most of the balance sheet into crypto, he ultimately chose a more cautious path. “There were definitely moments over the last 12 years where we thought, man, should we put 80% of our balance sheet into crypto — into Bitcoin specifically,” Armstrong said.

While the exchange still holds $1.3 billion in crypto, mainly Bitcoin (BTC), CFO Alesia Haas — who also participated in the Q&A — emphasized they aim to support customers, not compete with them. Meanwhile, Saylor continues to scoop up Bitcoin and fill MicroStrategy’s coffers. Recently, the company spent over $1.42 billion on 15,355 BTC, with an average price of $92,737 per Bitcoin. MicroStrategy, now going as “Strategy,” boasts total Bitcoin holdings of 553,555 BTC. That’s about 2.5% of the total supply. It’s expected to end 2025 with 691,249 BTC, up from a prior estimate of 601,029. In an earnings call on May 1, Saylor addressed Bitcoin’s volatility concerns directly and claimed that over 70 publicly traded companies are participating in the so-called “digital gold rush.” For example, logistics firm Freight Technologies recently struck a $20 million deal with an institutional investor to purchase cryptocurrency — but opted for Official Trump (TRUMP) memecoins over Bitcoin. Various analysts also remain bullish, as the Bitcoin-reserve model continues to gain traction. Firms like Twenty One Capital and Strive Enterprises are emulating the “Strategy” strategy. Some see huge stock surges, like Next Technology Holding, which jumped 700% after boosting its Bitcoin stash. Read more:Ethereum enters ‘rebuild era,’ Vitalik Buterin calls for cultural shift

披露：此处表达的观点和意见仅属于作者，不代表 crypto.news 编辑的观点和意见。 稳定币已成为数字资产生态系统不可或缺的一部分，2024 年年化交易量达到 15.6 万亿美元（根据 ARK Invest 的数据，分别为 VISA 和万事达卡的 119% 和 200%），现已无缝衔接传统金融与基于区块链的交易。然而，对透明度、安全性和监管监督的担忧长期以来一直困扰着该行业。 你可能还喜欢：美国在加密货币领域的领导地位：重点是稳定币 | 观点 为了解决这些问题，欧盟推出了《加密资产市场监管条例》（MiCA），为稳定币的发行制定了明确的指导方针。该监管框架旨在保护消费者、确保金融稳定并为数字（又称加密）资产创造公平的竞争环境。这意味着企业和机构可以与值得信赖、透明且合规的稳定币提供商合作。 MiCA 于 2024 年生效，是塑造欧洲数字资产未来的里程碑式一步。它为稳定币发行人提供了明确的框架，规定了严格的财务和运营要求。它要求稳定币发行人满足许多重要的监管要求，首先是寻求监管部门的批准，即电子货币代币的发行人必须持有电子货币机构许可证或成为金融机构。 其次，它们必须拥有完整的一对一储备，这意味着每个代币都必须完全由高质量、高流动性的金融储备支持。资产保管必须独立，因此储备必须与发行人的自有资产分开持有，以确保完全可赎回。发行人必须向监管机构提供定期报告和透明度，并接受独立的财务审计。最后，符合 MiCA 标准的稳定币不能有利息支付或收益，确保它们被用作支付手段而不是投资工具。 监管的作用 监管确实很重要，因为这些措施对于建立稳定币市场的信任至关重要，确保只有受监管和负责任的发行人才能在欧洲运营。但这不仅仅是合规问题；它还关乎建立信任、稳定和长期可行性的基础。许多数字资产都在不受监管的环境中运作，这导致了不确定性、缺乏透明度以及企业和投资者的潜在风险。然而，随着 MiCA 的实施，不受监管的稳定币将不再被允许在欧洲市场运营。 企业应选择使用受监管发行机构的稳定币，因为这为他们提供了一系列安全措施，例如法律保障，企业可以放心地进行交易，因为他们知道他们的稳定币提供商是受监管的实体，遵循严格的财务和运营要求。由于稳定币得到充分支持和审计，因此它们可以提供市场稳定性，最大限度地降低风险，并为交易提供可预测的稳定数字资产。由于遵守欧洲金融法规可以让机构、监管机构和企业客户放心，因此机构信心已成为常态。 考虑稳定币发行人所在的司法管辖区也非常重要。例如，荷兰是欧洲少数获得 AAA 评级的银行业国家之一，以其财务实力、稳定性和监管严格性而闻名。使用与一级银行保持关系的 EMI 发行的稳定币对于确保支持流通中的稳定币的欧元储备存放在值得信赖的金融机构的账户中至关重要。一级金融机构拥有庞大的资产负债表，可确保稳定币储备分散且不会受到高集中风险的影响。 在 AAA 管辖区开展银行业务有很多好处，特别是资金在流动性强的顶级金融机构中得到保障，从而可以加强储备管理。它提供了更大的机构信任，当然，企业更喜欢由受监管、资本充足的银行支持的稳定币。此外，强大的银行框架可确保无缝法定货币的进出，并减轻脱钩风险，提供可扩展性和流动性。稳定币发行人甚至可以更进一步，将储备金存放在独立结构和管理的基金会中，确保在发行人出现财务困难的情况下获得全面的资产保护。 欧洲稳定币的未来是明确的。只有受监管、透明且有充分支持的数字资产才能在 MiCA 下生存。 阅读更多：MiCA 的综合加密宣言中缺少什么？| 观点 阿诺德·斯塔尔·布斯曼 阿诺德·斯塔尔·布斯曼是 Quantoz Payments 的首席执行官，Quantoz Payments 是一家领先的荷兰电子货币机构，是荷兰中央银行授权的金融科技公司，也是为数不多的完全支持稳定币的发行商之一，旨在符合 MiCA 标准。Arnoud 拥有超过 25 年的企业家、首席执行官和顾问经验，涉及多个行业和地区。最近，他担任加拿大上市公司 Minehub Technologies Inc. 的总裁兼首席执行官。在此之前，他曾在 ING Bank 担任批发银行业务的多个职位，并在新西兰和亚洲的 ANZ Banking Group 工作。他现居荷兰，拥有乌得勒支大学计算机科学硕士学位。  

French authorities are looking to provide extra security for cryptocurrency executives and their families following a series of high-profile kidnappings and attempted abductions. France’s Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau made the announcement in a statement on Friday, May 16. His remarks came as France grapples with a wave of violent attacks targeting leading figures in the crypto industry. The most recent incident involved an attempted abduction in central Paris. Authorities now say they are enhancing protection measures for prominent individuals in the sector and their families. “These repeated kidnappings of professionals in the crypto sector will be fought with specific tools, both immediate and short-term, to prevent, dissuade and hinder in order to protect the industry,” Politico quoted Retailleau. The Interior Minister’s meeting with leading crypto executives followed the latest kidnapping attempt. On Tuesday, masked men tried to abduct the daughter of Pierre Noizat, founder and chief executive officer of the crypto exchange platform Paymium. The attempted kidnapping took place in the heart of Paris and follows two other recent attacks against French crypto entrepreneurs and their families.

Éric Larchevêque, another Ledger co-founder, commented on Friday’s meeting with Retailleau and law enforcement officials, saying it demonstrated that authorities now understand the scale of the threat. According to Larchevêque, the global crypto industry has recorded approximately 50 attacks on executives and industry participants over the past year. Of these, more than 25%, or 14 incidents, occurred in France, which he referred to as the “ground zero” of crypto kidnappings.

February 2025 saw $1.53 billion in crypto losses, an 18x increase from a year ago, largely driven by a $1.46 billion Bybit hack. Crypto hacks drained $1.53 billion in February 2025, an 18x jump from last year, with most of it coming from a $1.46 billion Bybit hack.
