Binance's effort to block a lawsuit that accuses it of illegally selling crypto assets has hit a roadblock after the US Supreme Court declined to hear its appeal, Bloomberg Law reported.

根據彭博社報道，在美國最高法院拒絕聽取其上訴後，幣安試圖阻止一項指控其非法出售加密資產的訴訟，但這項努力遇到了障礙。

The lawsuit, filed in 2020, alleges that a group of Binance investors were not warned by the crypto exchange about the risks involved in several tokens, including ELF, EOS, and FUN, which they purchased in 2017. The investors are seeking compensation for their losses, as well as interest and legal costs.

該訴訟於 2020 年提起，稱一群幣安投資者沒有收到該加密貨幣交易所關於他們在 2017 年購買的 ELF、EOS 和 FUN 等多種代幣所涉及風險的警告。 ，以及利息和法律費用。

Binance has argued that it should not be subject to US securities laws because it is not a US-based company.

幣安辯稱，它不應受到美國證券法的約束，因為它不是總部位於美國的公司。

A US district court initially dismissed the case in March 2022, ruling in favor of Binance's argument that US securities laws did not apply because the transactions were considered "extraterritorial" and some claims were filed too late.

美國地方法院最初於 2022 年 3 月駁回了此案，裁定支持幣安的論點，即美國證券法不適用，因為這些交易被認為是「域外」的，而且一些索賠提出得太晚。

But an appeals court later reversed that decision, finding that there was enough evidence to suggest that the transactions were domestic, based on the location of servers and the investors' activities within the US, according to a public document shared by Bloomberg Law.

但根據彭博社法律分享的一份公開文件，上訴法院後來推翻了這項決定，認為根據伺服器的位置和投資者在美國境內的活動，有足夠的證據表明這些交易是國內交易。

Following the decision, Binance and its former CEO, Changpeng Zhao, appealed to the Supreme Court. They argued that the 2nd Circuit misapplied the 2010 Morrison v National Australia Bank decision by permitting liability across different stages of securities transactions and countries.

判決後，幣安及其前執行長趙長鵬向最高法院提出上訴。他們認為，第二巡迴法院誤用了 2010 年莫里森訴澳洲國民銀行案的判決，允許跨證券交易階段和國家承擔責任。
