Terraform Labs 和執行長在紐約法院被判犯有加密貨幣欺騙罪

在提起民事訴訟後，美國證券交易委員會 (SEC) 認定 Terraform Labs 及其聯合創始人 Do Kwon 犯有盜竊罪。起訴書稱，Terraform 未能披露其加密貨幣 TerraUSD (UST) 和 Luna (LUNA) 的波動性，並在與韓國行動支付應用程式的合作方面誤導投資者。美國證券交易委員會認為這項判決開創了先例，強調了加密貨幣產業需要更嚴格的監管。

Terraform Labs and Co-Founder Do Kwon Convicted of Crypto Fraud by US Court

Terraform Labs 及其共同創辦人 Do Kwon 被美國法院判犯有加密貨幣詐欺罪

In a landmark verdict, a New York court has convicted Terraform Labs and its co-founder, Do Kwon, of theft by deception in a civil lawsuit filed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The SEC alleged that Terraform Labs misled investors about the stability of its cryptocurrency, TerraUSD (UST), and its associated token, Luna (LUNA).

在一項具有里程碑意義的判決中，紐約法院在美國證券交易委員會 (SEC) 提起的民事訴訟中判定 Terraform Labs 及其聯合創始人 Do Kwon 犯有欺騙盜竊罪。 SEC 指控 Terraform Labs 在其加密貨幣 TerraUSD (UST) 及其相關代幣 Luna (LUNA) 的穩定性方面誤導了投資者。

According to the SEC, Terraform Labs failed to disclose the inherent instability of UST and LUNA, prominently marketed as "stablecoins" that were supposedly immune to price fluctuations. The company also allegedly lied about its partnerships with popular Korean mobile payment apps, inflating the perceived legitimacy and value of its crypto assets.

據 SEC 稱，Terraform Labs 未能披露 UST 和 LUNA 固有的不穩定性，這兩種貨幣主要作為「穩定幣」進行行銷，據稱不受價格波動的影響。據稱，該公司還對其與韓國流行行動支付應用程式的合作關係撒了謊，誇大了其加密資產的合法性和價值。

"We are pleased with today's jury verdict holding Terraform Labs and Do Kwon liable for a massive crypto fraud," said Gubir Grewal, SEC Enforcement Director. "Terraform Labs and Kwon, its former CEO, deceived investors about the stability of their crypto assets and misled investors about their partnerships."

SEC 執法總監 Gubir Grewal 表示：“我們對陪審團今天做出的裁決感到滿意，裁定 Terraform Labs 和 Do Kwon 對大規模加密貨幣欺詐負有責任。” “Terraform Labs 及其前首席執行官 Kwon 在其加密資產的穩定性方面欺騙了投資者，並在其合作夥伴關係方面誤導了投資者。”

The trial commenced on March 25 without Kwon, who is currently residing in Montenegro. US and South Korean authorities are currently considering extradition requests to bring him to justice. The jury swiftly convicted Terraform Labs on all six charges, sending a strong message about the inadequate regulation and rampant fraud within the cryptocurrency sector.

審判於 3 月 25 日開始，目前居住在黑山的 Kwon 缺席。美國和韓國當局目前正考慮引渡請求，將他繩之以法。陪審團迅速判定 Terraform Labs 的全部六項指控有罪，發出了關於加密貨幣行業監管不力和欺詐猖獗的強烈訊息。

The SEC views this verdict as a precedent-setting case that underscores the need for stricter oversight of cryptocurrencies. The collapse of Terraform Labs in May 2022 sent shockwaves through the crypto market, dragging down numerous other crypto companies in its wake.

美國證券交易委員會認為這項判決是一個先例，強調了對加密貨幣進行更嚴格監管的必要性。 2022 年 5 月，Terraform Labs 的倒閉為加密貨幣市場帶來了衝擊，也拖累了許多其他加密貨幣公司。

"Today's verdict sends a clear message that those who cheat investors in the crypto market will be held accountable," said Grewal. "The SEC will continue to bring enforcement actions to protect investors and ensure fair and orderly crypto markets."

Grewal 表示：“今天的判決發出了一個明確的信息，即那些在加密貨幣市場上欺騙投資者的人將被追究責任。” “美國證券交易委員會將繼續採取執法行動，以保護投資者並確保加密市場公平有序。”

The SEC's investigation into Terraform Labs and Kwon is ongoing, with the possibility of further charges being filed. The verdict serves as a stark reminder of the risks associated with investing in unregulated cryptocurrencies and the importance of investor due diligence.

美國證券交易委員會對 Terraform Labs 和 Kwon 的調查正在進行中，並有可能提出進一步指控。該判決嚴厲提醒人們投資不受監管的加密貨​​幣所面臨的風險以及投資者盡職調查的重要性。
