A new cryptocurrency order from South Carolina Attorney General Alan Wilson’s office has been dismissed.

南卡羅來納州總檢察長艾倫·威爾遜（Alan Wilson）辦公室的新加密貨幣命令已被駁回。

The 2023 order, which was written by a deputy attorney general in the attorney general’s division of securities, had halted cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase from operating its “staking rewards” program in the state.

2023年的命令是由總檢察長證券司副總檢察長撰寫的，已停止了加密貨幣交易所Coinbase在該州運行其“ Staking Rewards”計劃。

But after administrative actions, the order was dismissed March 27, according to a copy of the dismissal obtained by The Post and Courier.

但是在行政訴訟之後，該命令於3月27日被駁回，根據郵政和快遞員的解僱副本。

The order, first reported by The Block, said the program wasn’t federally insured. That left more than 43,000 South Carolina accounts exposed to losses if the company experienced technical issues or failed to safeguard customer assets, the order said.

該訂單首先報導了該計劃，該計劃沒有聯邦政府投保。該命令說，如果公司經歷了技術問題或未能保護客戶資產，則剩下的43,000多個南卡羅來納州的帳戶遭受了損失。

Coinbase said no user has ever lost assets through its services. And the company estimates the order has cost South Carolinians at least $2 million in missed earnings through the program.

Coinbase表示，沒有用戶通過其服務損失資產。該公司估計，通過該計劃，該訂單使南卡羅來納州至少損失了200萬美元的遺失收入。

In a statement, Coinbase Chief Legal Officer Paul Grewal called the dismissal a “huge win for consumer protection and financial opportunity.”

Coinbase首席法律官Paul Grewal在一份聲明中稱，解僱是“消費者保護和財務機會的巨大勝利”。

“Staking represents the best of what crypto has to offer — open, accessible economic opportunity for anyone who wants to participate,” Grewal said. “Crypto is bipartisan, it’s good policy and it’s here to stay.”

格雷瓦爾說：“積分代表了加密貨幣所能提供的最好的東西 - 對於想要參加的任何人來說，開放，可訪問的經濟機會。” “加密是兩黨，這是一個很好的政策，它將留在這裡。”

Still, the attorney general’s office noted in its dismissal that the action “does not necessarily reflect the division’s position on the merits of this matter” or its “position on any other case.”

儘管如此，總檢察長辦公室在解僱中指出，該訴訟“不一定反映了該部門對此事的優點的立場”或“在任何其他案件上的立場”。

The decision also comes after the SEC and Coinbase agreed last month to dismiss a broader federal case.

該決定還提出了SEC和Coinbase上個月同意駁回更廣泛的聯邦案件之後。

That case, which was filed in March 2023, accused Coinbase of illegally selling cryptocurrency securities to the public through its exchange and failing to register with the SEC.

該案件於2023年3月提起訴訟，指控Coinbase非法通過其交易所向公眾出售加密貨幣證券，並且未能在SEC註冊。

Coinbase applied to register with the SEC in 2022 but was never granted the opportunity to do so, the company said.

該公司表示，Coinbase於2022年申請在SEC註冊，但從未獲得過這樣做的機會。

The agency is charged with policing Wall Street and capital markets. It can impose hefty penalties for violations of federal securities law. Such offenses can be detected through routine examinations or tips from members of the public.

該機構負責警務華爾街和資本市場。它可能因違反聯邦證券法的行為施加巨額罰款。可以通過常規考試或公眾的提示來檢測此類犯罪。

The agency’s role has expanded in recent years to include emerging technologies like crypto.

近年來，該機構的角色不斷擴大，包括加密技術等新興技術。

Coinbase is the largest U.S. cryptocurrency platform. It allows investors to buy, sell and trade cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Coinbase是美國最大的加密貨幣平台。它允許投資者購買，出售和交易加密貨幣，例如比特幣和以太坊。

Coinbase also offers a staking program, which allows investors to deposit cryptocurrency with the company in exchange for potential profit. In its 2023 lawsuit, the SEC said Coinbase failed to register as a national securities exchange, a broker or a clearing agency.

Coinbase還提供了一項製品計劃，該計劃使投資者可以將加密貨幣存入公司以換取潛在利潤。 SEC在2023年的訴訟中表示，Coinbase未能註冊為國家證券交易所，經紀人或清算機構。

By failing to register, Coinbase denied investors protections like inspections, recordkeeping and safeguards against conflicts between the company’s interests and those of its customers, the SEC said in a statement announcing the suit earlier this year.

SEC在今年早些時候宣布該訴訟的聲明中說，Coinbase未能註冊，否認了投資者的保護，記錄保存和保護措施，以抵禦公司利益與其利益之間的衝突。

The agency’s complaint also said Coinbase should have realized its actions would come with scrutiny from the SEC.

該機構的投訴還說，Coinbase應該意識到其行動將受到SEC的審查。

But the SEC’s case was met with administrative difficulties.

但是SEC的案件遇到了行政困難。

After the administrative law judge assigned to the case recused himself in December, the agency moved to administratively close the case.

行政法法官分配給案件在12月撤回自己之後，該機構搬到行政上關閉了案件。

The SEC said it would pursue a new administrative case if it decided to continue handling the matter in-house. Otherwise, the agency said it would pursue the matter in federal court.

SEC表示，如果決定繼續內部處理此事，它將提起新的行政案件。否則，該機構表示將在聯邦法院提起此事。

Coinbase said it was grateful for the administrative law judge’s service and looked forward to the next chapter in its journey.

Coinbase表示，這對行政法法官的服務表示感謝，並期待其旅程的下一章。

The agency’s case against Coinbase was part of a broader crackdown on the cryptocurrency industry.

該機構針對Coinbase的案件是對加密貨幣行業的更廣泛鎮壓的一部分。

In June 2023, the SEC sued another cryptocurrency giant, Binance, for allegedly defrauding investors and illegally operating a securities exchange.

2023年6月，美國證券交易委員會（SEC）起訴另一個加密貨幣巨頭Binance涉嫌欺騙投資者並非法運營證券交易所。

The agency is also investigating other cryptocurrency companies and platforms.

該機構還正在調查其他加密貨幣公司和平台。
