SEC丟棄Coinbase案，Bybit Hack掩蓋了Lazarus Group牽連的勝利

SEC V Coinbase沒有欺詐指控，SEC決定放棄該案的決定強調了該機構的變化優先事項

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has dropped its case against Coinbase, a major cryptocurrency exchange. The SEC had alleged that Coinbase failed to register its Lend product with the agency, which would have allowed users to earn interest on their crypto holdings. However, Coinbase maintained that its product did not meet the definition of a security and, thus, was not subject to SEC registration.

美國證券交易委員會（SEC）已將其針對主要的加密貨幣交易所Coinbase撤銷。 SEC聲稱Coinbase未能向該機構註冊其貸款產品，這將使用戶能夠從其加密貨幣持有股中獲得利息。但是，Coinbase堅持認為其產品不符合安全的定義，因此不受SEC註冊的約束。

With no allegations of fraud in the SEC v Coinbase case, the SEC’s decision to drop the case highlighted the agency's shifting priorities under Acting Chair Mark Uyeda and Commissioner Hester Peirce’s Crypto Task Force. Friday’s move also showed that Acting Chain Uyeda isn’t waiting for Paul Atkins’ confirmation to end the agency’s assault on cryptos.

SEC V Coinbase案中沒有欺詐指控，SEC決定放棄該案件的決定強調了該機構在代理主席Mark Uyeda和專員Hester Peirce的加密委員會工作隊下的轉移優先事項。週五的舉動還表明，代理連鎖店Uyeda並沒有等待保羅·阿特金斯（Paul Atkins）的確認來結束該機構對加密貨幣的攻擊。

Coinbase was spared from paying any fines or penalties, and the SEC did not have to admit to any wrongdoing on the exchange's part. This outcome is a significant victory for Coinbase and the crypto industry at large. It marks the first time that the SEC has dropped a case involving a crypto exchange without pursuing any further legal action.

Coinbase免於支付任何罰款或罰款，而SEC不必承認交易所的任何不當行為。對於Coinbase和Crypto行業來說，這一結果是一項重大勝利。它標誌著SEC首次放棄了一個涉及加密貨幣交易所的案件，而無需採取任何進一步的法律訴訟。

The SEC's decision to drop the case is likely due to several factors. First, the SEC may have realized that it did not have a strong case against Coinbase. The SEC's definition of a security is broad and can be applied to a wide range of financial products. However, it is ultimately up to the courts to decide whether a particular product meets the definition of a security. In the case of Coinbase's Lend product, the SEC may have concluded that it was not confident that a court would rule in its favor.

SEC決定撤銷此案的決定可能是由於幾個因素。首先，SEC可能已經意識到它沒有針對Coinbase的強有力。 SEC對安全性的定義廣泛，可以應用於廣泛的金融產品。但是，最終由法院決定特定產品是否符合安全的定義。在Coinbase的貸款產品的情況下，SEC可能得出的結論是，法院對其有利的裁決並不確信。

Second, the SEC may have been influenced by the changing regulatory landscape for cryptocurrencies. In March 2023, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) announced that it had reached a settlement with FTX. The CFTC alleged that FTX had engaged in fraud and offered illegal derivatives, which ultimately led to the exchange's collapse. As part of the settlement, the CFTC agreed to pay FTX's customers up to $80 million in restitution.

其次，SEC可能受到加密貨幣的監管格局的影響。 2023年3月，商品期貨貿易委員會（CFTC）宣布已與FTX達成和解。 CFTC聲稱FTX從事欺詐並提供了非法衍生品，最終導致了交易所的崩潰。作為和解的一部分，CFTC同意向FTX的客戶支付高達8000萬美元的賠償金。

The CFTC's settlement with FTX was a landmark moment in the regulation of cryptocurrencies. For the first time, a major U.S. regulator acknowledged that crypto derivatives could be legally offered in the United States. This opened the door for crypto exchanges to apply for CFTC licenses and begin offering regulated crypto derivatives to their customers.

CFTC與FTX的定居點是監管加密貨幣的里程碑時刻。美國主要監管機構首次承認，在美國合法提供加密衍生物。這為加密交易所申請CFTC許可並開始向其客戶提供受監管的加密衍生物打開了大門。

In light of the CFTC's actions, the SEC may have felt pressure to take a more moderate approach to regulating cryptocurrencies. By dropping the case against Coinbase, the SEC avoided a direct confrontation with the CFTC and signaled its willingness to work with other regulators to develop a comprehensive regulatory framework for crypto.

鑑於CFTC的行動，SEC可能會感到採取更溫和的方法來調節加密貨幣的壓力。通過對Coinbase的案件，SEC避免了與CFTC的直接對抗，並表示其願意與其他監管機構合作，以開髮用於加密貨幣的全面監管框架。

Coinbase shares slid on Friday as news of a major security breach at Bybit overshadowed the exchange's victory in its SEC case. Bybit, one of the world's largest crypto exchanges, announced on Friday that it had detected unauthorized activity involving one of its ETH cold wallets.

週五，Coinbase分享了Slid，因為在Bybit的嚴重安全違規的消息掩蓋了交易所在SEC案中的勝利。世界上最大的加密貨幣交易所之一拜比特（Bybit）週五宣布，它發現了未經授權的活動，涉及其ETH冷錢包之一。

“Bybit detected unauthorized activity involving one of our ETH cold wallets. The incident occurred when our ETH multisig cold wallet executed a transfer to our warm wallet. Unfortunately, this transaction was manipulated through a sophisticated attack that masked the signing interface, displaying the correct address while altering the underlying smart contract logic. As a result, the attacker was able to gain control of the affected ETH cold wallet and transfer its holdings to an unidentified address.”

“ Bybit檢測到涉及我們的ETH冷錢包之一的未經授權的活動。當我們的Eth Multisig冷錢包執行轉移到我們的溫暖錢包時，該事件發生。不幸的是，這項交易是通過掩蓋簽名接口的複雜攻擊來操縱的，在更改基礎智能合約邏輯時顯示了正確的地址。結果，攻擊者能夠控制受影響的ETH冷錢包，並將其持有量轉移到身份不明的地址。”

The exchange added that the affected ETH cold wallet had a balance of 53,820 ETH ($143.4 million at the time of the hack), which was fully covered by Bybit's insurance fund. The exchange also stated that all customer assets remained fully backed 1:1 and that the platform remained operational.

該交易所補充說，受影響的ETH Cold Wallet的餘額為53,820 ETH（在黑客攻擊時為1.434億美元），該餘額已由Bybit的保險基金完全覆蓋。交易所還指出，所有客戶資產仍然完全支持1：1，並且該平台仍在運營。

"Upon detecting the suspicious activity, ByBit took immediate action to enhance security measures and halt all cold wallet activity. We engaged our internal security team, third-party auditors, and forensic specialists to investigate the incident thoroughly and identify the perpetrator(s)."

“在發現可疑活動後，Bybit立即採取了行動來加強安全措施並停止所有冷錢包活動。我們聘請了內部安全團隊，第三方審計師和法醫專家，以徹底調查事件並確定肇事者。 “

According to Arkham Intelligence, the Bybit hacker's wallets, totaling 53, now held 1,373 ETH ($3.5 billion), down from the initial $3.8 billion. The crypto community can track the Bybit hacker on Arkham.

根據Arkham Intelligence的說法，Bybit Hacker的錢包總計53，現在持有1,373 ETH（35億美元），低於最初的38億美元。加密社區可以在阿卡姆（Arkham）上跟踪Bybit Hacker。

In response to the hack, Arkham created and funded a bounty to help identify the hacker or hackers. Zachxbt submitted definitive evidence that North Korea's Lazarus Group was
