SEC 指控 Mango DAO 和 Blockworks 基金會未註冊的代幣銷售和經紀活動

SEC 指控去中心化自治組織 Mango DAO 和總部位於巴拿馬的實體 Blockworks Foundation 未經註冊銷售「MNGO」代幣以及與 Mango Markets 平台相關的未經註冊經紀活動。

The SEC has charged Mango DAO and Blockworks Foundation with the unregistered sale of ‘MNGO’ tokens and unregistered broker activity related to the Mango Markets platform.

SEC 指控 Mango DAO 和 Blockworks 基金會未經註冊銷售「MNGO」代幣以及與 Mango Markets 平台相關的未經註冊經紀活動。

The SEC alleges that Mango DAO, a decentralized autonomous organization, and Blockworks Foundation, a Panama-based entity, raised over $70 million from the sale of MNGO tokens starting in August 2021. The SEC claims that these entities bypassed protections meant to safeguard investors by avoiding federal registration rules.

SEC 指控，去中心化自治組織Mango DAO 和總部位於巴拿馬的實體Blockworks Foundation 從2021 年8 月開始透過銷售MNGO 代幣籌集了超過7000 萬美元。投資者的保護措施：規避聯邦註冊規則。

All parties charged settled the charges, agreeing to destroy their tokens and pay a fine.

所有被指控的各方都達成和解，同意銷毀其代幣並支付罰款。

The MNGO tokens acted as governance tokens, allowing holders to have a say in how Mango Markets operates. Mango Markets is a crypto trading platform where users can trade digital assets.

MNGO 代幣充當治理代幣，允許持有者對 Mango Markets 的運作方式擁有發言權。 Mango Markets是一個加密貨幣交易平台，用戶可以在其中交易數位資產。

Mango Markets recently allocated $250,000 in USD Coin (USDC) to address U.S. regulatory scrutiny, following a series of regulatory challenges, including a 2022 Avraham Eisenberg hack that resulted in $116 million in losses.

在遭遇一系列監管挑戰（包括 2022 年 Avraham Eisenberg 駭客攻擊導致 1.16 億美元損失）後，Mango Markets 最近分配了 25 萬美元的美元硬幣 (USDC)，以應對美國監管審查。

Crypto lawyer Bill Hughes suggested on X that Eisenberg’s Mango Market hack and subsequent conviction threw more scrutiny on the entire project, eventually culminating in settled SEC charges and a monetary fine.

加密貨幣律師比爾休斯 (Bill Hughes) 在 X 上表示，艾森伯格對芒果市場的駭客攻擊和隨後的定罪對整個項目進行了更多審查，最終導致 SEC 指控和罰款。

Mango token ICO didn't require proof you weren't a US person, so US persons participated. US persons also helped create Mango Markets and got a token allocation as compensation for their work. The Mango DAO website was accessible by US persons. Mango Markets was accessed by US…

芒果代幣ICO不需要證明你不是美國人，所以美國人參與了。美國人還幫助創建了 Mango Markets，並獲得了代幣分配作為他們工作的補償。 Mango DAO 網站可供美國人造訪。 Mango Markets 被美國造訪…

Unregistered brokers

未註冊經紀人

The SEC also charged Blockworks Foundation and Mango Labs LLC with acting as unregistered brokers, alleging that they recruited users to trade on Mango Markets and provided advice and valuations on investment opportunities.

SEC 還指控 Blockworks Foundation 和 Mango Labs LLC 充當未註冊經紀人，聲稱他們招募用戶在 Mango Markets 上進行交易，並提供有關投資機會的建議和估值。

According to the SEC, this activity meant that the entities were operating as brokers without the necessary regulatory registration.

根據美國證券交易委員會的說法，這項活動意味著這些實體在沒有必要的監管註冊的情況下以經紀人身份運作。

Similarly, on Sept. 18, the SEC charged Rari Capital and its co-founders for acting as unregistered brokers. They allegedly conducted unregistered securities offerings through investment products holding over $1 billion in crypto assets.

同樣，9 月 18 日，SEC 指控 Rari Capital 及其聯合創始人充當未註冊經紀人。據稱，他們透過持有超過 10 億美元加密資產的投資產品進行了未經註冊的證券發行。

For context, the SEC requires entities offering securities, such as stocks or tokens with investment features, to register with them to ensure investor protections. This includes adhering to strict disclosure rules and other regulations.

就背景而言，美國證券交易委員會要求提供證券（例如具有投資功能的股票或代幣）的實體向其註冊，以確保投資者受到保護。這包括遵守嚴格的揭露規則和其他法規。
