美國領先的交易所 Coinbase 在最高法院敗訴，輸掉了圍繞狗狗幣抽獎活動的仲裁糾紛。

Coinbase Legal Loss: Supreme Court Rejects Exchange’s Arbitration Bid in Dogecoin Sweepstakes Case

Coinbase 法律損失：最高法院駁回交易所在狗狗幣抽獎案的仲裁請求

Coinbase suffered a legal setback on Monday after the US Supreme Court ruled against the cryptocurrency exchange in a dispute over a Dogecoin sweepstakes that went awry.

週一，美國最高法院就狗狗幣抽獎活動出現糾紛，對加密貨幣交易所做出了不利於該加密貨幣交易所的裁決，此後，Coinbase 週一遭遇法律挫折。

A group of users had accused the trading platform of false advertising, claiming they were misled into paying $100 to enter the sweepstakes, sparking a legal battle that reached the highest court in the land.

一群用戶指責該交易平台存在虛假廣告，聲稱他們被誤導而支付 100 美元才能參加抽獎，引發了一場法律訴訟，並最終鬧到了該國最高法院。

Coinbase’s top lawyer, Paul Grewal, took to Mastodon X to comment on the ruling, writing: “What a week. Some you win. Some you lose. We are grateful for having had the opportunity to present our case to the Court and appreciate the Court’s consideration of this matter.”

Coinbase 的頂級律師 Paul Grewal 在 Mastodon X 上對裁決發表評論，他寫道：「這真是一周了。有些你贏了。有些你會失去。我們很高興有機會向法院陳述我們的案件，並感謝法院對此事的考慮。

The crypto exchange sought to compel the users to engage in arbitration, a process typically favored by businesses as it allows for disputes to be resolved outside of court proceedings.

該加密貨幣交易所試圖迫使用戶參與仲裁，這一過程通常受到企業青睞，因為它允許在法庭程序之外解決爭議。

Coinbase users had agreed to resolve disputes through arbitration when they signed up for the exchange’s services. However, the Dogecoin sweepstakes encountered a legal hurdle as a separate agreement stated that any disputes regarding the contest would be settled in a California court. The user agreement’s arbitration provision clashed with the forum selection clause stipulated for the sweepstakes contest.

Coinbase用戶已同意透過仲裁在註冊交易所服務時解決爭議。然而，狗狗幣抽獎活動遇到了法律障礙，因為一項單獨的協議規定，有關比賽的任何爭議將在加州法院解決。使用者協議的仲裁條款與抽獎比賽規定的論壇選擇條款發生衝突。

A federal judge in California and the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals both ruled against Coinbase in the matter, leading the exchange to file an appeal with the Supreme Court.

加州的一名聯邦法官和美國第九巡迴上訴法院都在此事上做出了對 Coinbase 不利的裁決，導致該交易所向最高法院提起上訴。

The high court agreed to take up the dispute in November, and while the justices did not explicitly side with the 9th Circuit, they unanimously ruled that Coinbase was not entitled to compel arbitration.

高等法院於 11 月同意受理該糾紛，雖然法官們沒有明確站在第九巡迴法院這邊，但他們一致裁定 Coinbase 無權強制仲裁。

Coinbase had argued that not allowing it to force arbitration would wreak havoc, but the Supreme Court was not swayed by this claim.

Coinbase 辯稱，不允許其強制仲裁會造成嚴重破壞，但最高法院並沒有被這項說法動搖。
