ByBit 加密货币交易所退出法国市场
按交易量计算第二大加密货币交易所 ByBit 宣布，以监管障碍为由，将于 2025 年 1 月 8 日开始退出法国市场。交易所将在2025年1月8日至16日期间，为具有匹配Coinhouse账户的ByBit用户转移无人认领的数字资产期间暂时停止提现。
该交易所周二表示，自明年 1 月 8 日起，ByBit 加密货币交易所将不再向法国领土的国民或dent（“法国用户”）提供提款和托管服务。
已要求受影响的用户在截止日期前将其数字资产转移至Coinhouse交易所，以避免资金损失或支付额外费用。

Accounts with 10 USDC or less will be charged a fee of 10 USDC and be closed permanently. Those with more than 10 USDC will incur the same fee amount, and then the difference will be forwarded to their corresponding Coinhouse accounts. Users without verified Coinhouse accounts will be required to open and verify the Coinhouse accounts through the necessary KYC process. All subsequent withdrawals will then be handled through their Coinhouse accounts.
All unclaimed digital assets still held on ByBit after the deadline will be transferred automatically between January 8th and January 16th, 2025, for ByBit users with matching Coinhouse accounts. Withdrawals will be unavailable during this transfer period. Those with verified accounts will not face extra costs, but unverified users will have to pay a monthly fee of 0.16% of their holdings or 1 USDC – whichever is higher.
ByBit has been under increasing scrutiny from the French Autorité des Marchés Financiers since 2022, and French users have been restricted to ‘Close-Only’ mode since August of this year. The restrictions applied to all products offered by ByBit.
France continues to tighten crypto regulations for exchanges and French users
According to the FSB (Financial Stability Board), trading and investment were the main use cases of crypto assets in France. Stablecoins were mostly used as a medium of exchange for crypto-to-crypto transactions. However, the use of crypto assets for payments remained limited, just like the direct links between traditional finance and the crypto market.
ByBit’s exit from France emphasized the tightening regulatory environment in the country and Europe in general. Exchanges face increasing scrutiny and pressure to align with the evolving compliance frameworks in the French market. ByBit’s decision signaled the importance of users staying informed about regulatory changes and acting swiftly to secure their digital assets. The ByBit exchange is expected to focus on European markets where compliance pathways are clearer as regulators refine their crypto oversight.
French authorities have made significant progress in supervising, monitoring, and regulating crypto assets. They have also managed to successfully bring a huge part of the digital assets market into the regulatory perimeter.
