UPI — Cryptocurrency exchange Gemini Trust Co. has agreed to pay $5 million to settle a claim by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission over its attempt to launch the first U.S.-regulated Bitcoin futures contract, according to a joint court filing on Monday.

UPI——週一聯合法庭文件顯示，加密貨幣交易所 Gemini Trust Co. 已同意支付 500 萬美元，以和解商品期貨交易委員會對其試圖推出第一份美國監管的比特幣期貨合約的索賠。

The proposed settlement, which was filed in Manhattan federal court, comes ahead of a trial that was scheduled to begin on Jan. 21 -- the day after Donald Trump's second term inauguration as U.S. president.

擬議的和解協議已在曼哈頓聯邦法院提交，審判定於 1 月 21 日開始，即唐納德·川普第二次就任美國總統後的第二天。

Gemini settled the case without admitting or denying liability. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission initially sued the exchange in 2022, alleging that it misled the derivatives regulator in its bid to launch the futures contract.

雙子座在不承認或否認責任的情況下解決了此案。商品期貨交易委員會最初於 2022 年對該交易所提起訴訟，指控其在推出期貨合約時誤導了衍生性商品監管機構。

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission claimed that Gemini made false and misleading statements about its measures to prevent manipulation of the Bitcoin prices, which were to serve as a reference for the derivatives.

美國商品期貨交易委員會聲稱，Gemini對其防止操縱比特幣價格的措施做出了虛假和誤導性的陳述，以作為衍生性商品的參考。

The civil enforcement case against Gemini is among several actions by President Joe Biden's administration to establish regulatory authority over cryptocurrencies.

針對 Gemini 的民事執法案件是喬·拜登總統政府為建立加密貨幣監管機構而採取的多項行動之一。

Many crypto advocates cheered Trump's election, expecting his administration to support more industry-friendly regulation.

許多加密貨幣倡導者為川普的當選歡呼，期望他的政府支持更加有利於產業的監管。

In late 2017 or early 2018, Gemini turned over subpoenaed laptops from two former executives as part of a related criminal investigation, which concluded without any charges being filed.

2017 年底或 2018 年初，作為相關刑事調查的一部分，Gemini 交出了兩名前高階主管傳喚的筆記型電腦，調查結果並未提出任何指控。
