Coinbase和Opensea獲得SEC緩刑

加密貨幣交易所巨頭Coinbase已與美國證券交易委員會（SEC）達成協議，以駁回金融監管機構針對Coinbase的案件，這標誌著Gary Gensler擔任代理機構主席的巨大事件。

Coinbase, a major cryptocurrency exchange, announced Friday that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) staff has agreed to dismiss its case against Coinbase, pending approval by the full Commission.

主要加密貨幣交易所Coinbase週五宣布，美國證券交易委員會（SEC）工作人員已同意駁回其針對Coinbase的案件，待得到全體委員會的批准。

The SEC is also closing its investigation into the non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace OpenSea, according to Devin Finzer, the co-founder of the platform.

該平台聯合創始人Devin Finzer表示，SEC還將關閉對不可殺死的令牌（NFT）市場Opensea的調查。

Coinbase applied for a direct listing with the SEC in 2020, but the financial regulator sued the exchange in April 2021, alleging that Coinbase failed to register its Lend program with the SEC. Coinbase countered that the SEC had shifted its position on the matter.

Coinbase於2020年申請了與SEC的直接上市，但金融監管機構於2021年4月起訴該交易所，指控Coinbase未能在SEC註冊其貸款計劃。 Coinbase反駁說，SEC已將其在此事上的立場轉移。

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong announced the development in a video Friday, adding that the Commissioners still need to take a vote on the matter, but the exchange is hopeful.

Coinbase首席執行官布萊恩·阿姆斯特朗（Brian Armstrong）在周五的視頻中宣布了這一開發項目，並補充說，專員仍然需要對此事進行投票，但交易所充滿希望。

"If this goes through, it's a really big deal, not just for us, but for the whole crypto industry," he said.Coinbase is also awaiting a verdict in a separate lawsuit filed by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) over the exchange's margin trading products.

他說：“如果這樣做的話，這不僅對我們來說是一件大事，而且對於整個加密行業來說。” Exchange的保證金交易產品。

Coinbase had argued that the CFTC lacks jurisdiction over the matter, as the exchange's customers are trading cryptocurrencies, which are not commodities. A federal judge had ruled against Coinbase in the case last year, but the exchange appealed the decision.

Coinbase曾認為，由於交易所的客戶正在交易非商品的加密貨幣，因此CFTC對此事缺乏管轄權。一位聯邦法官去年裁定了Coinbase，但該交易所提出了這一決定。

Coinbase expressed gratitude to the revamped SEC under Acting Chair and Commissioner Mark Uyeda for making the dismissal deal possible. Armstrong said in the video that the SEC staff had changed its position on the matter after Gensler left the agency.

Coinbase表示感謝代理主席和專員Mark Uyeda對SEC進行的改革，以使解僱協議成為可能。阿姆斯特朗在視頻中說，在Gensler離開該機構後，SEC工作人員改變了對此事的立場。

"The SEC staff changed their position on our Lend program after Gensler left the agency. They realized that their case was flawed and that they couldn't win. So they offered to dismiss the case without any settlement or compromise," Armstrong said.

阿姆斯特朗說：“ SEC的工作人員在Gensler離開該機構後改變了他們在我們的貸款計劃中的立場。他們意識到他們的案件有缺陷，無法獲勝。因此，他們提出駁回該案而沒有任何解決方案或妥協。”

"This is a huge victory for Coinbase and for the crypto industry as a whole. It shows that the SEC is finally starting to take a more pragmatic approach to regulating crypto."

“對於Coinbase和整個加密貨幣行業來說，這是一次巨大的勝利。這表明SEC終於開始採取更務實的方法來調節加密貨幣。”

Coinbase Chief Legal Officer Paul Grewal elaborated on the matter in a series of posts on Medium, revealing that the case will be dismissed "with prejudice."

Coinbase首席法律官Paul Grewal在一系列媒介上對此事進行了詳細闡述，並表明該案將“有偏見”駁回。

"Case dismissed." Two words that every defendant in every case yearns to hear. Today we can announce upon full Commission approval @SECGov is dropping our case. There will be no settlement or compromise-- a wrong will simply be made right. 1/4

“案件被駁回。”每個被告在每種情況下都渴望聽到的兩個詞。今天，我們可以宣布全面委員會批准@Secgov正在撤銷我們的案件。不會有解決方案或妥協 - 錯誤將是正確的。 1/4

"A dismissal 'with prejudice' means the case cannot be refiled later, not even a settlement agreement with some major concessions."

“解僱'有偏見'意味著案件以後再也不能對此進行補習，甚至沒有與一些主要優惠的和解協議。”

Attorney Jeremy Hogan, a well-followed figure in crypto, explained that a lawsuit that will be dismissed with prejudice means the case "cannot be refiled later, not even a settlement agreement with some minor concessions!"

律師傑里米·霍根（Jeremy Hogan）是加密貨幣的一個備受關注的人物，他解釋說，將因偏見而被駁回的訴訟意味著案件“稍後再也無法與某些小讓步達成和解協議！”

The Coinbase Case was Dismissed WITH Prejudice - meaning it cannot be refiled later; not even a settlement agreement with some minor concessions!

共同案件被偏見被駁回 - 這意味著以後不能對其進行補充；甚至沒有與一些小讓步達成和解協議！

I guess this SEC is not waiting for Atkins to be confirmed before making big crypto moves.

我想這個SEC並沒有在進行大加密動作之前等待阿特金斯得到確認。

For Grewal, the case's dismissal following an official Commissioners' vote will mean that "the U.S. can finally get back to doing what it does best: building innovative tech that improves the world."

對於格雷瓦爾（Grewal），此案在官方專員投票之後被解僱將意味著“美國最終可以恢復做到最好的事情：建立改善世界的創新技術。”

"When the dust fully settles on this matter, the U.S. will be able to finally get back to doing what it does best: building innovative tech that improves the world. And that will be a victory for everyone."

“當塵埃完全解決這一問題時，美國將能夠最終回到做最擅長的事情：建立改善世界的創新技術。這將是每個人的勝利。”

Financial services lawyer James Murphy, another popular crypto lawyer who goes by MetaLawMan on social media, is expecting "more dismissals to follow."

金融服務律師詹姆斯·墨菲（James Murphy）是另一位受歡迎的加密律師，他在社交媒體上被Metalawman登上，他期望“有更多的解僱”。

Victory is at hand.

勝利在場。
