Crypto exchange Coinbase has filed an amicus brief in the bankruptcy case of crypto custodian Prime Trust. According to Paul Grewal, Coinbase's chief legal officer, the filing is an attempt to protect customer assets that are being held by the custodian during its financial restructuring.

加密交易所Coinbase已在加密託管Prime Trust的破產案件中提交了一份法庭之友。根據Coinbase首席法律官Paul Grewal的說法，該文件是一種試圖保護保管人在財務重組期間持有的客戶資產的嘗試。

Coinbase's Grewal cites Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), which is designed to ensure that assets held by custodians remain the property of the customers even in bankruptcy cases.

Coinbase的Grewal引用了《統一商業法典》（UCC）第8條，該法案旨在確保託管人持有的資產即使在破產案件中仍然是客戶的財產。

Coinbase intervenes in Prime Trust bankruptcy

Coinbase干預主要信託破產

Prime Trust is a crypto custody service that offers a range of services, including helping institutional investors to securely save their cryptocurrencies. On August 14, 2023, Prime Trust filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in Delaware, and it requested the formation of a committee to oversee the liquidation of its assets.

Prime Trust是一項加密監護服務，提供一系列服務，包括幫助機構投資者安全地保存其加密貨幣。 2023年8月14日，Prime Trust申請了第11章在特拉華州的破產保護，並要求成立一個委員會來監督其資產清算。

The company disclosed a shortfall of $82 million in customer deposits, and regulators had identified a deficiency in customer deposits. Moreover, a large portion of clients' holdings are in illiquid tokens, which has further complicated the bankruptcy situation.

該公司披露了8200萬美元的客戶存款短缺，監管機構已經確定了客戶存款的不足。此外，很大一部分客戶的持有量都在流動的代幣中，這進一步使破產狀況變得更加複雜。

As of February 5, Coinbase has joined the legal proceedings surrounding Prime Trust's bankruptcy by filing an amicus brief, in which it urges the court to uphold the legal protections that are in place for customer assets held by custodi剜stians.

截至2月5日，Coinbase通過提交法庭摘要來加入圍繞Prime Trust破產的法律訴訟，該摘要敦促法院堅持Custodi stians持有的客戶資產的法律保護。

In an X post, Paul Grewal highlighted that customer assets should not be absorbed into a custodian's bankruptcy proceedings. He argues that both Coinbase and Prime Trust's user agreements stipulate that custodian assets belong to clients, not custodians, as outlined in Article 8.

在X帖子中，保羅·格雷瓦爾（Paul Grewal）強調說，不應將客戶資產吸收到保管人的破產程序中。他認為，Coinbase和Prime Trust的用戶協議都規定，如第8條所述，保管人資產屬於客戶，而不是託管人。

“UCC Article 8 is a pillar of commercial law that protects customer assets– held by custodians big and small, in digital or traditional finance (including BNY and DTC)– from unfairly getting swallowed up in bankruptcy,” said Paul.

保羅說：“ UCC第8條是商業法的支柱，可保護客戶資產 - 由大小在數字或傳統金融（包括BNY和DTC）中持有的客戶資產 - 免受破產吞沒的不公平吞噬。”

Coinbase's intervention aims to set a precedent for the treatment of customer assets within the crypto industry and beyond. Grewal emphasized the broader implications of the case, stating that “This is bigger than crypto.”

Coinbase的干預旨在為處理加密行業及其他地區的客戶資產的治療設定先例。格雷瓦爾（Grewal）強調了案件的更廣泛的含義，指出“這比加密貨幣大。”

The UCC Article 8, according to Grewal, serves as a foundational element of commercial law that applies to both digital and traditional financial institutions, which are inherently susceptible to bankruptcy proceedings given the nature of their businesses.

根據格雷瓦爾（Grewal）的說法，UCC第8條是適用於數字和傳統金融機構的商業法的基本要素，鑑於其業務的性質，這些數字和傳統金融機構本質上容易受到破產程序的影響。
