随着加密货币的广泛使用，两位美国参议员提出了一项立法，以建立一个旨在打击数字资产欺诈的联邦特别工作组，这标志着一种保护投资者和金融系统的更加协调的方法。
民主党人伊丽莎-斯洛特金（Elissa Slotkin）和共和党人杰里-莫兰（Jerry Moran）提出的《加强加密货币执法机构框架法案》（SAFE）旨在联合政府机构和私营部门专家，共同识别、预防和应对加密货币诈骗。
《SAFE 加密货币法案》提议成立一个工作组，负责分析加密货币欺诈的趋势，并制定实时预防犯罪的策略。
地方执法机构将获得更强大的调查工具，而公众教育活动将提高人们对常见骗局的认识。
斯洛特金说：
"根据《安全加密货币法案》成立的这一特别工作组将使我们能够利用我们拥有的一切资源来打击数字资产欺诈。"
莫兰补充说：
"随着加密货币的使用越来越广泛，这项立法将有助于应对威胁，并确保所有美国人都能得到更好的保护，免受加密货币诈骗。"
联邦调查局（FBI）的数据显示，2024 年美国人因加密货币相关的投资骗局损失了 93 亿美元，比 2023 年增加了 66%，其中 60 岁以上的个人损失了 28.4 亿美元，这凸显了立法的紧迫性。
其中许多骗局都提到了加密货币，但不一定涉及实际的区块链交易，这凸显了欺诈者不断发展的复杂性。
Delphi Labs 法律总顾问加布里埃尔-夏皮罗（Gabriel Shapiro）评论说，《加密货币安全法案》可能会让欺诈者惶惶不可终日。
"如果这项法案进展顺利，骗子们可能会吓得屁滚尿流，"他说，"包括总检察长、金融犯罪执法网络总监和美国特勤局局长在内的高级官员将带头追捕加密货币罪犯。
Shapiro 补充说，该法案可能会特别有效，因为美国证券和商品监管机构目前不太重视对黑客、骗子和庞氏骗局的执法。
区块链情报公司TRM Labs是准备提供协助的私营合作伙伴之一，该公司副总裁兼全球政策主管Ari Redbord指出，行业和执法部门之间的合作可以 "有效降低犯罪分子利用变革性技术造成危害的能力"。"
虽然该法案的重点是减少欺诈，但其连锁反应可能会波及更广泛的加密银行业务和商业领域。
规模较小的公司和初创企业可能会发现获得银行服务的渠道更加有限，这可能会促使一些公司在监管较松的地区开展业务。
市场集中度是另一个令人担忧的问题。
资金雄厚的公司可能会更好地消化合规成本，而规模较小的公司则要努力满足新的报告、许可和透明度要求。
这可能会减少竞争和创新，尽管大公司可能会从监管的明确性中获益。
对于中小型企业来说，《加密货币安全法案》可能会大幅增加运营成本。
报告义务、许可要求和透明度要求可能会给资源有限的小型企业带来压力。
合规成本可能会减少用于增长和创新的预算，从而可能减缓新技术和服务开发的步伐。
