美国货币监理署(OCC)已初步有条件批准 World Liberty Trust Company 设立全国性信托银行。这家拟设机构位于佛罗里达州,与特朗普家族支持的 World Liberty Financial 有关联,获批后将推动 USD1 稳定币的发行安排调整。

拟接手 USD1 发行

根据 OCC 决定函,这家机构计划负责 USD1 的发行与赎回,接替目前担任独家发行人与托管方的 BitGo。除稳定币业务外,它还计划以受托人身份提供数字资产托管,并允许托管客户将获批稳定币转换为 USD1。

文件显示,这是一家全国性信托银行,而不是传统商业银行。按申请安排,该机构不会吸收存款,不提供美国联邦存款保险公司(FDIC)保险,现阶段也不会申请美联储主账户。

审批附带多项条件

这次批准并非最终无条件放行。OCC 要求该机构满足多项前置条件,其中包括至少 2000 万美元资本金,并遵守去年生效的《GENIUS Act》稳定币法律要求。

  • 最低资本要求为 2000 万美元
  • 机构类型为全国性信托银行
  • 获批后需在 18 个月内开业

文件还提到,相关机构承诺不落入《银行控股公司法》所界定的“银行”范围。这意味着其业务将集中在信托、托管和稳定币相关服务,而非传统存贷款业务。

特朗普关联引发质疑

申请审查期间,监管方收到多份意见,质疑该项目与特朗普、其家族、Witkoff 家族以及阿联酋投资者之间可能存在利益冲突,也有人提及美国宪法中的薪酬条款问题。

不过,OCC 基本未采纳这类意见。监管方表示,World Liberty Financial 本身并不是此次申请的直接主体,因此相关政治和利益冲突问题不属于本次审查的核心范围。

公开文件显示,项目联合创始人 Zachary Witkoff 被列为组织人、董事兼总裁,另有一份被动持股承诺文件由 Eric Trump 代表一家投资实体签署。美国参议员 Elizabeth Warren 则批评 OCC 向加密公司发放此类牌照的做法,称这些机构具备部分银行功能,却未承担相应监管约束。

The US plans to give AI partners a "single-choice" question: Pax Silica is transitioning from a cooperation framework to a technical camp
According to a report by Reuters on August 15, the U.S. government is preparing to make clearer demands to dozens of countries: if a country joins the competitive artificial intelligence cooperation framework led by China, it may be excluded from the U.S.-led Pax Silica alliance. The report is based on statements by a U.S. official and an internal draft seen by Reuters, so the current accurate description is "the U.S. is preparing" rather than "new rules have already taken effect." Whether the draft will be implemented as written, which countries will be officially notified, and how the exit or exemption mechanisms will be designed remain to be seen until public documents are released.
