SEC放棄了對Ripple Labs的追求，結束了對XRP的長期法律鬥爭

美國證券交易委員會已決定結束對波紋的追求。監管機構正在對XRP的長期法律鬥爭中的上訴

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has decided to drop its case against Ripple. The regulatory agency is no longer appealing its rulings in the long-running legal battle over XRP.

美國證券交易委員會已決定放棄對Ripple的案件。監管機構不再在XRP的長期法律鬥爭中對其裁決提出上訴。

Confirming this development on Sunday, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse shared a personal message on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Ripple首席執行官布拉德·加林豪斯（Brad Garlinghouse）在周日確認這一發展，在X上分享了一條個人信息，該信息以前稱為Twitter。

"I'm finally able to announce that this case has ended. It's over," stated Garlinghouse in a video message.

“我終於能夠宣布此案已經結束。它結束了，” Garlinghouse在一條視頻消息中說。

This incredible journey began in December 2020 when the SEC filed suit against Ripple. The regulator accused the company of conducting an unregistered securities offering, amounting to $1.3 billion through sales of its XRP token.

這次令人難以置信的旅程始於2020年12月，當時SEC對Ripple提起訴訟。監管機構指責該公司通過銷售XRP代幣進行未註冊的證券產品，總計13億美元。

The case started with the SEC charging Ripple with selling XRP to raise capital without registering its offerings with the agency.

該案始於SEC收費Ripple，以出售XRP以籌集資金，而無需在該機構註冊其產品。

However, in July, a federal judge ruled that sales of XRP on crypto exchanges were not securities transactions. But, crucially, the judge found that Ripple’s "institutional sales" of XRP did violate securities law.

但是，7月，一名聯邦法官裁定，XRP在加密交易所的銷售不是證券交易。但是，至關重要的是，法官發現Ripple的XRP“機構銷售”確實違反了證券法。

The SEC had planned to appeal those rulings, but in a surprising turn, the agency has decided to drop the case entirely.

SEC計劃對這些裁決提出上訴，但令人驚訝的是，該機構已決定完全撤銷此案。

The development marks a complete reversal of the agency's position, which had planned to appeal parts of the court's decision in the case.

該發展標誌著該機構立場的完全逆轉，該立場計劃在該案中對法院的一部分提出上訴。

The SEC has not yet released an official statement confirming this case closure.

SEC尚未發表正式聲明，證實了此案封閉。

The case, which began in 2020, had a significant impact on XRP holders, who suffered heavy losses.

該案始於2020年，對遭受重大損失的XRP持有人產生了重大影響。

Garlinghouse noted that approximately $15 billion in market value was erased when the SEC first filed its lawsuit against Ripple.

Garlinghouse指出，當SEC首次針對Ripple提起訴訟時，將消除了大約150億美元的市場價值。

"The SEC was the market manipulator," claimed Garlinghouse in his statement. He argued that the regulator's actions harmed investors rather than protecting them, which he described as contrary to the agency's mission.

Garlinghouse在聲明中說：“ SEC是市場操縱者。”他辯稱，監管機構的行動損害了投資者，而不是保護投資者，他稱這與該機構的使命相反。

This resolution also comes during a shift in the SEC's approach to cryptocurrency regulation.

該決議也是在SEC的加密貨幣調節方法的轉變中。

Under Acting Chairman Mark Uyeda, the agency has withdrawn from more than ten other crypto enforcement cases, including those against major players like Coinbase, Unispay Labs, and Karcen.

在代理主席馬克·烏耶達（Mark Uyeda）的領導下，該機構撤回了其他十多個加密執法案件，包括針對Coinbase，Unispay Labs和Karcen等主要參與者的案件。

"This was the first major shot fired in the 'war on crypto'," said Garlinghouse about the lawsuit. He suggested that the case was "doomed from the start" and part of a broader government effort to "pick winners" in the cryptocurrency space.

Garlinghouse談到訴訟時說：“這是“加密戰爭”中發射的第一批重大射擊。”他建議該案“從一開始就注定要失敗”，這是政府在加密貨幣領域中“接收穫獎者”的更廣泛努力的一部分。

Former SEC Chair Mary Jo White publicly criticized the agency's decision to pursue the case. According to Garlinghouse, White stated that the SEC was "dead wrong" in its approach to Ripple and XRP.

前美國證券交易委員會主席瑪麗·喬·懷特（Mary Jo White）公開批評該機構提出此案的決定。根據加林豪斯（Garlinghouse）的說法，懷特（White）表示，SEC在其對Ripple和XRP的方法中是“錯誤的”。

During the legal proceedings, the SEC faced judicial criticism. Garlinghouse noted that the agency was sanctioned for discovery abuses, with the judge rebuking them for lacking "faithful allegiance to the law" in their handling of the case.

在法律程序中，SEC面臨司法批評。加林豪斯（Garlinghouse）指出，該機構因發現虐待而受到批准，法官在處理案件時斥責他們缺乏“忠實效忠法律”。

The outcome of this case has now established that "the digital asset XRP is not a security. That is now the law," stated Garlinghouse. This precedent could influence how regulators approach digital assets in the future.

Garlinghouse說，此案的結果已經確定，“數字資產XRP不是安全性。現在是法律。” Garlinghouse說。這種先例可能會影響監管機構將來如何處理數字資產。

In response to the case development, XRP's price showed a positive reaction, rising to $2.55. The crypto market has been closely following updates in the case, which has significant implications for the broader digital asset industry.

為了應對案件的發展，XRP的價格顯示出積極的反應，上升至2.55美元。加密市場一直緊隨其後的更新，這對更廣泛的數字資產行業具有重大影響。

As the legal battle comes to an end, it opens up possibilities for broader crypto adoption and innovation in the American market.

隨著法律鬥爭的結束，它為美國市場上採用更廣泛的加密貨幣和創新開闢了可能性。

"This is a fight Ripple never wanted, but one we knew we had to win. And today, emphatically, we have,"

“這是一場不想要的戰鬥，但是我們知道我們必須贏得勝利。今天，我們有，我們有。”

Garlinghouse stated. He expressed gratitude to Ripple employees, the legal team led by Chief Legal Officer Stu Alderody, and the broader XRP community.

加林豪斯說。他對Ripple員工，由首席法律官Stu Alderody和更廣泛的XRP社區領導的法律團隊表示感謝。

"It's time to make the United States the crypto capital of the world," concluded Garlinghouse, hinting at the company's aspirations for the future.

加林豪斯（Garlinghouse）總結說：“現在該使美國成為世界的加密之都。”
