打破：SEC已撤銷了針對Coinbase的執法案件。 Coinbase花費了4600萬美元來影響選舉的結果。現在他們已經獲得了收益。

SEC目前是由代理主席馬克·烏耶達（Mark Uyeda）領導的，特朗普在前主席加里·金斯勒（Gary Gensler）辭職後任命了特朗普（Gary Gensler）的辭職，後者是強硬加密法規的擁護者。

The Securities and Exchange Commission under President Donald Trump has dropped a major lawsuit against cryptocurrency exchange platform Coinbase, which spent heavily on the 2024 election and donated a million dollars to Trump's inauguration, according to a new report.

唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）總統領導下的證券交易委員會已針對加密貨幣交換平台Coinbase提起了重大訴訟，該案件在2024年的選舉上花費了大量時間，並向特朗普的就職典禮捐贈了一百萬美元。

The SEC's decision, announced Friday by Coinbase's chief legal officer, is the latest evidence of the cryptocurrency industry's growing political influence and the current administration's willingness to abandon corporate enforcement efforts.

Coinbase首席法律官週五宣布的SEC的決定是加密貨幣行業不斷增長的政治影響力以及現任政府願意放棄公司執法工作的最新證據。

The New York Times reported Friday that the SEC under the Biden administration sued Coinbase in 2023 "on the grounds that the digital currencies sold on its platform constituted unregistered securities that put consumers at risk of financial harm."

《紐約時報》週五報導說，拜登政府的SEC在2023年起訴了Coinbase，這是因為數字貨幣在其平台上出售的是沒有註冊的證券，這使消費者處於金融危害的危險中。”

Robert Weissman, co-president of the consumer advocacy group Public Citizen, said in a statement that "the SEC abandonment of its case against Coinbase is proof positive that the crypto industry's flood of campaign spending has paid off."

消費者倡導集團公民的聯合總裁羅伯特·韋斯曼（Robert Weissman）在一份聲明中說：“ SEC放棄了針對Coinbase的案件證明了加密貨幣行業的競選開支氾濫的洪水已經得到了回報。”

"The now-abandoned lawsuit against Coinbase involved the most basic assertion of SEC authority: Coinbase cryptocurrency offerings are actually securities and must be registered and regulated as such," said Weissman. "Retreat from this basic assertion is a massive gift to the industry, which can only be understood in light of its massive political spending in the last election."

魏斯曼說：“對Coinbase的現在廢除的訴訟涉及SEC權威的最基本主張：Coinbase Cryptocurrency產品實際上是證券，必須進行註冊和監管。” “從這一基本主張中撤退是給該行業的巨大禮物，只有在上次選舉中其巨大的政治支出才能理解。”

According to the campaign finance watchdog OpenSecrets, Coinbase spent over $46 million trying to influence the 2024 election, part of a broader wave of spending from the cryptocurrency industry.

根據競選財務監管機構OpenseCrets的說法，Coinbase花費了超過4600萬美元，試圖影響2024年選舉，這是加密貨幣行業的更廣泛支出的一部分。

A trio of pro-crypto super PACs spent over $130 million in an effort to "elect a crypto-friendly president and members of Congress," OpenSecrets noted in a blog post just days before the 2024 contest.

OpenSecrets在2024年競賽開始前幾天，OpenSecrets在博客文章中指出，三架Pro-Crypto Super PAC花費了超過1.3億美元，以“選舉一個對加密貨幣友好的總統和國會議員”。

Public Citizen argued ahead of the 2024 election that Coinbase's campaign spending appeared to be illegal because the company is a federal contractor.

公共公民在2024年大選之前辯稱，Coinbase的競選支出似乎是非法的，因為該公司是聯邦承包商。

Now they're already getting their payoff.

現在他們已經獲得了收益。

The SEC is currently led by Acting Chair Mark Uyeda, whom Trump appointed to the post following the resignation of former Chair Gary Gensler, a proponent of tough crypto regulation.

SEC目前是由代理主席馬克·烏耶達（Mark Uyeda）領導的，特朗普在前主席加里·金斯勒（Gary Gensler）辭職後任命了特朗普（Gary Gensler）的辭職，後者是強硬加密法規的擁護者。

Following the November election, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong met privately with Trump, who has profited massively from his own foray into crypto. The two discussed personnel appointments, according to The Wall Street Journal.

11月大選後，Coinbase首席執行官布萊恩·阿姆斯特朗（Brian Armstrong）私下會見了特朗普（Trump），後者從自己涉足加密貨幣的企業中獲利。根據《華爾街日報》的報導，兩人討論了人事任命。

Since taking office last month, Trump has moved to stock his administration with crypto enthusiasts, including some with glaring conflicts of interest.

自上個月上任以來，特朗普已將其政府與加密愛好者一起庫存，其中包括一些巨大的利益衝突。

The Coinbase CEO's sister, Kathryn Armstrong Loving, has been identified as a member of the Elon Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency. Coinbase, meanwhile, "brought on Trump’s campaign co-manager Chris LaCivita as a member of its Global Advisory Council," Sludge reported.

Coinbase首席執行官的姐姐Kathryn Armstrong Loving已被確定為埃隆·馬斯克領導的政府效率部的成員。同時，Coinbase“使特朗普的競選聯合經理克里斯·拉克維塔（Chris Lacivita）成為其全球諮詢委員會的成員，” Sludge報導。

Weissman of Public Citizen warned Friday that "when the crypto crash happens," the SEC's decision to drop its lawsuit against Coinbase "will go down as one that made it far worse than it would have been."

公民公民的魏斯曼週五警告說，當加密貨幣墜毀發生時，SEC決定對Coinbase提起訴訟的決定“將會降低，這使它比以前要差得多。”

"The SEC decision is also an important marker in the Trump administration's rush to abandon prosecution and enforcement actions against corporate criminals and wrongdoers," he added. "This is not just an antitrust abandonment of those already wronged by corporate wrongdoers, it is an invitation to a corporate crime spree and epidemic of corporate wrongdoing. Americans, watch your head, watch your wallet, and watch your back."

他補充說：“ SEC決定也是特朗普政府急於放棄起訴和對公司犯罪分子的執法行動的重要標誌。” “這不僅是對公司不法行為者所犯錯的人的反托拉斯放棄，還邀請了公司犯罪的狂歡和企業不當行為的流行。
