Ripple Labs和SEC可能很快就會達成長期的法律攤牌

此案自2020年12月以來一直拖延了案件，當時SEC指控波紋通過未註冊的銷售籌集了超過10億美元

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Ripple Labs may soon be reaching a settlement in their long-running legal battle, according to two well-placed sources, Fox Business reported on Monday, citing “two well-placed sources.”

Fox Business週一報導說，美國證券交易委員會（SEC）和Ripple Labs可能很快就會在他們長期進行的法律鬥爭中達成和解。

The case, which began in December 2020 when the SEC accused Ripple of selling unregistered securities to raise over $1.3 billion, could be wrapping up — though not without last-minute bickering over its terms.

該案始於2020年12月，當時SEC指控波紋出售未註冊的證券以籌集超過13億美元，但可能會結束 - 儘管並非沒有最後一刻的爭吵。

Sources told Fox that Ripple’s legal team is pushing to renegotiate aspects of a pivotal 2023 ruling by District Judge Analisa Torres of the Southern District of New York (SDNY). That decision ordered Ripple to pay a $125 million penalty for its institutional XRP sales, which the court deemed unregistered securities offerings while sparing the company the nearly $2 billion fine the SEC had demanded. The SEC appealed Torres’ ruling shortly before former Chair Gary Gensler stepped down.

消息人士告訴福克斯，Ripple的法律團隊正在推動紐約南部地區地區法官Analisa Torres（SDNY）的2023年關鍵裁決的重新談判。該決定命令Ripple為其機構XRP銷售支付1.25億美元的罰款，法院認為未註冊的證券產品，同時向該公司支付了SEC所要求的近20億美元罰款。 SEC在前主席加里·加斯勒（Gary Gensler）辭職之前不久就提出了托雷斯的裁決。

Torres’ ruling was widely considered to be a win for Ripple at the time it was issued, because the court decided that its programmatic sales of XRP to exchanges for purchase by retail traders did not constitute securities transactions. However, now that the SEC and its new leadership is in a full-scale retreat from many of its investigations into crypto companies, and has agreed to drop ongoing enforcement suits against companies like Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN), Cumberland DRW and Kraken, Ripple’s partial victory may not taste quite as sweet.

托雷斯（Torres）的裁決被普遍認為是發行時波紋的勝利，因為法院裁定其將XRP的程序銷售額銷售給零售貿易商購買的交易所並不構成證券交易。但是，既然SEC及其新領導層正在從其對加密公司的許多調查中進行全面撤退，並且已經同意制定針對Coinbase（Nasdaq：Coin），Cumberland DRW和Kraken等公司的持續執法訴訟，Ripple的部分勝利可能不會像甜蜜的味道一樣味道。
