幣安因涉嫌證券違規在加拿大面臨集體訴訟

在持續的監管審查中，著名的加密貨幣交易所幣安在加拿大面臨集體訴訟。該訴訟向安大略省高等法院提起，指控違反證券法，特別是涉及向散戶投資者出售不受監管的衍生產品。安大略證券法 (OSA) 違規和損害是原告索賠的核心，為眾多加拿大幣安用戶尋求賠償和撤銷未經授權的交易。

Binance, one of the world's leading cryptocurrency exchanges, is facing a significant legal challenge in Canada as a class-action lawsuit alleges violations of securities laws. The lawsuit, filed in Ontario's Superior Court of Justice on April 19, reignites legal scrutiny against the exchange.

幣安是全球領先的加密貨幣交易所之一，在加拿大面臨重大法律挑戰，集體訴訟指控違反證券法。該訴訟於 4 月 19 日向安大略省高等法院提起，重新引發了針對該交易所的法律審查。

The legal action stems from allegations that Binance sold cryptocurrency derivative products to retail investors without proper registration, contravening provisions of the Ontario Securities Act (OSA) and federal regulations. The plaintiffs, represented by Christopher Lochan and Jeremy Leeder, are seeking damages and the recission of unlawful derivative trades executed by Canadian Binance users, who number in the tens of thousands.

這項法律訴訟源於指控幣安在未經適當註冊的情況下向散戶投資者出售加密貨幣衍生產品，違反了安大略省證券法（OSA）和聯邦法規的規定。以 Christopher Lochan 和 Jeremy Leeder 為代表的原告正在尋求損害賠償，並要求撤銷數以萬計的加拿大幣安用戶執行的非法衍生性商品交易。

The lawsuit comes amidst Binance's announced plans to cease operations in Ontario following warnings issued by the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) in 2023. Despite this announcement, the OSC's investigation into Binance is ongoing, signifying continued regulatory scrutiny.

此次訴訟發生之際，幣安宣布計劃在2023 年安大略省證券委員會(OSC) 發出警告後停止在安大略省的業務。繼續。

The lawsuit further tarnishes Binance's reputation, which has been marred by previous controversies. In 2021, former CEO Changpeng Zhao pleaded guilty to anti-money laundering violations in the United States. Although current CEO Richard Teng has made efforts to enhance Binance's regulatory compliance, including securing a cryptocurrency license in Dubai, the exchange's past regulatory issues continue to overshadow its progress.

這次訴訟進一步損害了幣安的聲譽，先前的爭議已經損害了幣安的聲譽。 2021年，前執行長趙長鵬承認在美國違反反洗錢規定。儘管現任執行長理查德·滕（Richard Teng）努力加強幣安的監管合規性，包括在杜拜獲得加密貨幣牌照，但該交易所過去的監管問題仍然掩蓋了其進展。

The Ontario Superior Court of Justice has published a certification motion for the lawsuit, providing legal standing to the class-action representation. The plaintiffs contend that Binance's actions have caused significant financial losses to Canadian investors who had minimal understanding of the risks associated with cryptocurrency derivatives, which are complex financial instruments.

安大略省高等法院已發布了該訴訟的認證動議，為集體訴訟代表提供了法律地位。原告認為，幣安的行為對加拿大投資者造成了重大財務損失，因為他們對加密貨幣衍生性商品相關風險知之甚少，而加密貨幣衍生性商品是複雜的金融工具。

The lawsuit argues that Binance failed to provide adequate disclosure of the risks involved and did not register the products with the appropriate regulatory authorities. This alleged failure to comply with securities laws has resulted in significant harm to Canadian investors, the plaintiffs claim.

訴訟稱，幣安未能充分揭露所涉及的風險，也沒有向適當的監管機構註冊產品。原告聲稱，這種所謂的不遵守證券法的行為對加拿大投資者造成了重大損害。

The legal battle in Canada is part of a broader trend of increased regulatory scrutiny of cryptocurrency exchanges globally. Regulators worldwide are grappling with the challenges posed by the rapidly evolving cryptocurrency market and are seeking to protect investors from potential risks. The outcome of the lawsuit will have significant implications for Binance's operations in Canada and may set a precedent for other jurisdictions considering similar regulatory actions.

加拿大的法律戰是全球加密貨幣交易所加強監管審查這一更廣泛趨勢的一部分。世界各地的監管機構正在努力應對快速發展的加密貨幣市場帶來的挑戰，並尋求保護投資者免受潛在風險的影響。該訴訟的結果將對幣安在加拿大的業務產生重大影響，並可能為其他司法管轄區考慮類似的監管行動樹立先例。
