Coinbase訴訟由SEC撤銷，反映了特朗普領導下的新加密立場

週四，美國證券交易委員會（SEC）駁回了針對美國最大的加密貨幣交易所Coinbase的訴訟

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has dismissed its lawsuit against Coinbase, the biggest cryptocurrency exchange in the U.S., according to a report by CC Agency. The move comes as part of a broader shift in Washington’s approach to cryptocurrencies following President Donald Trump’s return to the White House and signals a potential easing of regulatory pressure on the industry.

根據CC機構的一份報告，美國證券交易委員會（SEC）已駁回了針對美國最大的加密貨幣交易所Coinbase的訴訟。此舉是在唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）返回白宮（Donald Trump）返回白宮後的加密貨幣方法的更廣泛轉變的一部分，並表示潛在地減輕了該行業的監管壓力。

The SEC had sued Coinbase in 2023 for allegedly offering unregistered crypto tokens for trading to the public. The lawsuit was part of a broader crackdown on the cryptocurrency industry that began under former SEC chairman Gary Gensler, who became a vocal critic of the industry.

SEC在2023年起起訴Coinbase，據稱向未註冊的加密代幣提供了向公眾交易。該訴訟是對加密貨幣行業的更廣泛鎮壓的一部分，該行業始於前美國證券交易委員會（Gary Gensler）的前SEC主席，後者成為該行業的聲音批評家。

A key point of contention was the classification of certain crypto assets as securities. SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce, known for her dissenting voice on crypto matters, had expressed her disagreement with the lawsuit.

一個關鍵的爭論是將某些加密資產分類為證券。 SEC專員Hester Peirce以其對加密事務的反對聲明而聞名，她對訴訟表示了分歧。

“I did not support the action against Coinbase. Among other things, I was concerned that it was part of the Commission’s larger strategy to use its enforcement tool to regulate the crypto industry, which is an industry that the Commission has been assigned to regulate by statute for the past 80 years. Despite the fact that Congress has never expressly authorized the Commission to register any new industry, we have done so in the past and can do so again,” said Peirce.

“我不支持針對Coinbase的行動。除其他外，我擔心使用其執行工具來規範加密貨幣行業是委員會更大的戰略的一部分，該行業是委員會在過去80年中通過法規調節的行業。儘管國會從未明確授權委員會註冊任何新行業，但我們過去曾經這樣做，並且可以再次這樣做。” Peirce說。

Coinbase had previously expressed confidence in the SEC dropping the case. Chief legal officer Paul Grewal wrote in a blog post on February 21 that the lawsuit was a “major wrong that must be undone.” He also urged lawmakers to pass legislation that would provide “long-term certainty” to the industry and help the U.S. maintain its leadership in the crypto sector.

Coinbase先前曾表示對SEC的信心刪除了案件。首席法律官保羅·格雷瓦爾（Paul Grewal）在2月21日在博客文章中寫道，訴訟是“必須撤銷的重大錯誤”。他還敦促立法者通過立法，該立法將為行業提供“長期確定性”，並幫助美國在加密貨幣領域保持領導地位。

“Congress should create certainty in this new and vital sector of the economy. Without it, the administrative state will continue to flounder. And without U.S. leadership in this global industry, the benefits to the American people and our broader society will never fully be realized. Clarity will bring new inflows of capital into the U.S., update our financial system so consumers pay lower fees, and help create economic freedom for all,” said Grewal.

“國會應該在這個新的和重要的經濟領域中確定確定性。沒有它，行政狀態將繼續陷入困境。如果沒有美國在這個全球行業中的領導地位，對美國人民和我們更廣泛的社會的好處將永遠無法完全實現。清晰度將為美國帶來新的資本流入，更新我們的金融體系，以便消費者支付較低的費用，並幫助所有人創造經濟自由。”

The cryptocurrency industry has been anticipating a more favorable regulatory environment following Trump’s reelection victory in 2024. Since his inauguration on 20th January, the SEC has taken several steps that suggest a shift in stance.

特朗普在2024年連任勝利之後，加密貨幣行業一直在預期一個更有利的監管環境。自從1月20日的就職典禮以來，SEC已採取了多個步驟，表明立場發生了變化。

Earlier this month, the SEC announced the formation of a "crypto task force" to coordinate the agency’s actions in response to the rapid technological advancements in the digital asset industry.

本月初，SEC宣布成立了“加密特遣部隊”，以協調該機構的行動，以應對數字資產行業的快速技術進步。

Furthermore, a federal judge in Washington paused the SEC’s lawsuit against Binance after a joint request from both parties. The judge agreed to stay the case for 60 days to allow for the establishment of the new task force and the administrative processing of the case.

此外，華盛頓的一名聯邦法官在雙方的共同要求後停止了SEC針對Binance的訴訟。法官同意將案件保留60天，以允許建立新工作隊和案件的行政處理。

These developments are unfolding ahead of the confirmation of Trump’s nominee to lead the SEC, Paul Atkins. A report by the New York Times mentions that Atkins’s consulting firm, Monument Circle Advisors, counts several clients within the cryptocurrency industry.input:

在特朗普的提名人確認領導SEC Paul Atkins之前，這些事態發展正在發展。 《紐約時報》的一份報告提到，阿特金斯的諮詢公司Monument Circle Advisors計算了加密貨幣行業中的幾個客戶。

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has dismissed its lawsuit against Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN), the biggest cryptocurrency exchange in the U.S., according to CC Agency. The move comes as part of a broader shift in Washington’s approach to cryptocurrencies.

根據CC機構的說法，美國證券交易委員會（SEC）已駁回了對Coinbase（NASDAQ：COIN）的訴訟，這是美國最大的加密貨幣交易所。此舉是華盛頓加密貨幣方法的更廣泛轉變的一部分。

The SEC sued Coinbase in 2023 for allegedly allowing users to trade crypto tokens that were classified as unregistered securities. The lawsuit was part of a broader crackdown on the cryptocurrency industry. It comes as former SEC chairman Gary Gensler, who became a prominent critic of the industry, stepped down from his role.

SEC在2023年起訴Coinbase涉嫌允許用戶交易被歸類為未註冊證券的加密代幣。該訴訟是對加密貨幣行業的更廣泛鎮壓的一部分。隨著前美國證券交易委員會（SEC）董事長加里·加斯勒（Gary Gensler）成為該行業的傑出批評者，他辭去了角色。

A key issue in the case was the classification of certain crypto assets as securities. SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce, known for her dissenting voice on crypto matters, expressed her opposition to the lawsuit.

在此情況下，關鍵問題是將某些加密資產分類為證券。 SEC專員赫斯特·皮爾斯（Hester Peirce）以對加密貨幣事務的反對聲明而聞名，她對訴訟表示反對。

“I did not support the action against Coinbase. Among other things, I was concerned that it was part of the Commission’s larger strategy to use its enforcement tool to regulate the crypto industry, which is an industry that the Commission has been assigned by statute to regulate for the past 80 years.

Coinbase預計SEC決定撤銷此案。首席法律官保羅·格雷瓦爾（Paul Grewal）在2月21日的博客文章中說，這將“是正確的錯誤”。他敦促立法者制定將為行業提供“長期確定性”的立法。

“Congress should create certainty in this new and vital sector of the economy. Without it, the administrative state will continue to flounder.
