SEC放棄了針對DRW的加密貨幣貿易部門Cumberland DRW的執法案

美國證券交易委員會（SEC）已同意撤銷其針對總部位於芝加哥貿易公司DRW的加密貨幣貿易部門Cumberland DRW的執法案件

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has agreed to drop its enforcement case against Cumberland DRW, the crypto trading arm of Chicago-based trading firm DRW, the company announced Tuesday.

該公司週二宣布，美國證券交易委員會（SEC）已同意撤銷其針對總部位於芝加哥貿易公司DRW的加密貨幣貿易部門Cumberland DRW的執法案件。

The SEC sued Cumberland DRW last October, accusing the firm of acting as an unregistered securities dealer and alleging it sold more than $2 billion in unregistered securities, naming tokens like Polygon (POL), Solana (SOL), Cosmos (ATOM), Algorand (ALGO) and Filecoin (FIL) as a “non-exhaustive” list of tokens the agency considered to be securities.

The SEC sued Cumberland DRW last October, accusing the firm of acting as an unregistered securities dealer and alleging it sold more than $2 billion in unregistered securities, naming tokens like Polygon (POL), Solana (SOL), Cosmos (ATOM), Algorand (ALGO) and Filecoin (FIL) as a “non-exhaustive” list of tokens the agency considered to be securities.

At the time the suit was filed, Cumberland DRW and its CEO Don Wilson pledged to fight the charges. In an interview with CoinDesk last October, Wilson said that his firm had tried and failed to register as a securities dealer with the SEC, and suggested that the lack of clarity for crypto companies was a feature, not a bug of the agency’s regulatory approach.

在提起訴訟時，坎伯蘭德DRW及其首席執行官唐·威爾遜（Don Wilson）承諾與指控作鬥爭。威爾遜在去年10月接受Coindesk採訪時說，他的公司曾嘗試並未能在SEC註冊為證券交易，並建議對加密貨幣公司缺乏明確性是一項功能，而不是該機構監管方法的錯誤。

“This dynamic put the SEC in a position where they could say everyone is breaking the rule, and we’re just going to go after whoever we want to,” Wilson told CoinDesk. “It reminds me of ‘Atlas Shrugged.’ If everybody is breaking the law, they get to selectively harass whoever they want to.”

威爾遜告訴Coindesk：“這種動態使SEC處於一個可以說每個人都在違反規則的位置，而我們只要追隨我們想要的任何人。” “這讓我想起了'Atlas聳了聳肩'。如果每個人都違反法律，他們就會有選擇地騷擾他們想要的人。”

Just five months later, under the new leadership of Acting Chair Mark Uyeda, the SEC has completely reversed course. The agency’s decision to drop its suit against Cumberland DRW is the latest in a series of abandoned lawsuits: the SEC has also dropped its case against Coinbase (COIN), and agreed to drop its cases against ConsenSys and Kraken. It has also closed a multitude of probes into crypto companies, including Gemini, OpenSea, Robinhood (HOOD) Crypto and Yuga Labs.

僅五個月後，在代理主席馬克·烏耶達（Mark Uyeda）的新領導下，SEC完全扭轉了路線。該機構決定針對坎伯蘭德DRW提起訴訟的決定是一系列廢棄訴訟中的最新訴訟：SEC還放棄了對Coinbase（Coin）的案件，並同意將其針對Consensys和Kraken案件撤銷。它還關閉了包括Gemini，Opensea，Robinhood（Hood）Crypto和Yuga Labs在內的加密貨幣公司的大量調查。

As with its ConsenSys and Kraken agreements, the SEC's agreement with Cumberland is pending approval from a majority of the three commissioners currently on the panel. The Commission voted to drop its Coinbase case last week.

與其一致性和Kraken協議一樣，SEC與Cumberland的協議正在等待目前在小組中的三名專員中的大多數批准。該委員會上週投票決定放棄其Coinbase案。

“As a firm deeply committed to the principles of integrity and transparency, we look forward to continuing our dialogue with the SEC to help shape a future where technological advancements and regulatory clarity go hand in hand, ensuring that the U.S. remains at the forefront of global financial innovation,” Cumberland said in its announcement.

坎伯蘭郡在宣布其宣布中說：“作為一家致力於誠信和透明度原則的公司，我們期待繼續與SEC進行對話，以幫助塑造未來的技術進步和監管清晰度，以確保美國在全球金融創新的最前沿。”
