一群投資者已針對分散的加密貨幣交易所Meteora提起集體訴訟

在4月21日在紐約南部地區的美國地方法院提交的一項修訂的申訴中，原告聲稱風險投資公司Kelsier Labs

A group of investors has filed a class-action lawsuit against decentralized cryptocurrency exchange Meteora for allegedly engaging in activities that manipulated the launch and market price of the M3M3 token.

一群投資者已針對分散的加密貨幣交易所Meteora提起集體訴訟，據稱從事操縱M3M3代幣的發行和市場價格的活動。

In an amended complaint filed on April 21 in the US District Court for the Southern District of New York, the plaintiffs claimed that venture capital firm Kelsier Labs, Meteora, and four current or former executives “intentionally misrepresented” information in a bid to launch the token in December 2024.

在4月21日在紐約南部地區的美國地方法院提起的一項修訂的申訴中，原告聲稱風險投資公司Kelsier Labs，Meteora和四名現任或前任高管“故意歪曲”的信息，以旨在於2024年12月啟動該令牌。

The investors stated that they suffered at least $69 million in losses between December 2024 and February 2025 after the parties presented “trusted leaders in the Solana ecosystem” as being behind the token launch, rather than a “blatant fraud” in which sales were manipulated to artificially inflate the price.

投資者表示，在各方向當事方提出“索拉納生態系統中值得信賴的領導者”之後，他們遭受了至少6,900萬美元的損失，這是代幣發射的幕後黑手，而不是“公然的欺詐”，其中銷售被操縱以人為地誇大了價格。

“This artificially-inflated valuation communicated highly misleading information to non-insider investors, who reasonably relied on Defendants’ representations that the $M3M3 launch was fully accessible to the public and conducted in a transparent manner fair to non-insider investors, and thus reasonably relied on $M3M3 market price as a meaningful measure of its value,” the complaint stated. “The post-launch price spike also served to corroborate Defendants’ aggressively-marketed, but misleading, assertions that $M3M3 had intrinsic value and a comparatively low risk profile.”

“這種人工膨脹的估值將高度誤導性的信息傳達給了非投資者投資者，他們合理地依靠被告的陳述，即公眾可以完全訪問公眾，並以透明的方式對非投資者投資者進行公平進行，因此合理地合理地依靠了$ 3M3的市場價格，以$ 3M3的市場價格對其價值的有意義的衡量標準。” “發出後的價格飆升也有助於證實被告的積極營銷，但具有誤導性的斷言，即M3M3具有內在價值和相對較低的風險狀況。”

The lawsuit is one of many involving different crypto firms that have alleged fraud through violations of US securities laws. Though the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), under acting chair Mark Uyeda since US President Donald Trump took office, has scaled back or dismissed many enforcement actions involving digital assets, the agency said in February that it still intended to pursue cases against fraudulent token projects.

該訴訟是許多涉及不同加密企業的訴訟之一，這些公司涉嫌違反美國證券法的欺詐行為。儘管自美國總統唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）上任以來，美國證券交易委員會（SEC）（SEC）在代理主席馬克·烏耶達（Mark Uyeda）領導下，已經縮減或駁回了許多涉及數字資產的執法行動，但該機構在2月份表示，它仍然打算針對欺詐性代幣項目提起訴訟。

投資者補充說：

The parties allegedly used multiple burner wallets to purchase the M3M3 tokens in bulk at the start of the launch to quickly increase demand and drive up the price. They also sold the tokens at lower price tiers to create the impression of fair and competitive pricing, according to the lawsuit.

據稱，各方使用多個燃燒器錢包在發布開始時批量購買M3M3令牌，以迅速增加需求並提高價格。根據訴訟，他們還以較低的價格級別出售了代幣，以創造出公平和競爭價格的印象。

However, the parties allegedly engaged in "insider trading" at the higher price tiers, keeping the majority of the tokens for themselves and selling small batches to pump up the market price, which they later used to exit their positions at a profit.

但是，據稱，各方以較高的價格層進行“內部交易”，使大多數令牌為自己保持自己的大部分，並出售小額批次以高價提高市場價格，後來他們用來以利潤退出頭寸。

The investors stated that they had no knowledge of the alleged scheme to defraud them and were induced to invest in the M3M3 tokens based on the defendants' false and misleading statements and omissions.

投資者表示，他們不知道欺騙他們的計劃，並受到基於被告的虛假和誤導性陳述和遺漏的誘使投資M3M3代幣。

The defendants are also accused of making false and misleading statements about the token's value, risk profile, and liquidity to induce investors to buy the tokens at inflated prices.

被告還被指控對代幣的價值，風險概況和流動性作出虛假和誤導性的陳述，以誘使投資者以高昂的價格購買令牌。

The investors are seeking to recover their losses, as well as punitive damages from the defendants for their alleged fraudulent conduct.

投資者正在尋求追回損失，以及被告所謂的欺詐行為的懲罰性賠償。

The lawsuit is unfolding amid heightened scrutiny of the memecoin market, particularly in the wake of the collapse of several major crypto firms in 2024.

由於對紀念品市場的審查加劇了審查，尤其是在2024年幾家主要加密公司崩潰之後，該訴訟正在進行中。

Regulators around the world are increasingly turning their attention to the memecoin sector, which has seen a surge in popularity in recent years.

世界各地的監管機構越來越多地將注意力轉移到Memecoin行業上，該部門近年來一直在流行。

Meteora has been linked to the launch of several high-profile yet controversial tokens, including those for Trump (TRUMP), his wife Melania (MELANIA), Libra (LIBRA), and online influencer Haliey Welch (HAWK).

Meteora與推出了幾個備受矚目但有爭議的令牌，包括特朗普（特朗普），他的妻子梅拉尼亞（Melania），天秤座（天秤座）和在線影響者Haliey Welch（Hawk）的代幣。

According to the lawsuit, the firm “purported to offer a comprehensive solution to the problems in the memecoin investment market” with the launch of M3M3. The defendants in the case allegedly attempted to distinguish the token from other notable memecoins by highlighting the “legitimacy and trustworthiness” through the involvement of Meteora co-founder Ben Chow and the platform.

根據訴訟，M3M3的推出“據稱為Memecoin投資市場中的問題提供了全面的解決方案。據稱，該案的被告試圖通過通過Meteora聯合創始人Ben Chow和平台的參與來強調“合法性和可信賴性”，從而將令牌與其他值得注意的紀念物區分開。

Kelsier Ventures, KIP Protocol, and Meteora face a similar class-action lawsuit filed in New York in March over LIBRA allegedly being launched in a “deceptive, manipulative and fundamentally unfair” manner. Argentine President Javier Milei briefly promoted the token over social media after his sister reportedly received payments from the project.

Kelsier Ventures，KIP協議和Meteora在3月在紐約提起類似的集體訴訟，據稱以“欺騙性，操縱性和根本性不公平”的方式發動了天秤座。據報導，他的姐姐從項目中獲得付款後，阿根廷總統哈維爾·麥利（Javier Milei）在社交媒體上短暫宣傳了代幣。
