BIT全球起诉Coinbase用于将WBTC代币推荐

在最新的发展中，BIT Global已针对加密货币贸易平台Coinbase Global Inc提起诉讼，声称Coinbase已非法地将其WBTC代币淘汰

Bit Global, a cryptocurrency exchange, has filed a lawsuit against Coinbase Global Inc (NASDAQ:COIN) alleging that the crypto trading platform unlawfully delisted its WBTC token so it could promote its own rival cbBTC.

加密货币交易所BIT Global已针对Coinbase Global Inc（NASDAQ：COIN）提起诉讼，该诉讼指控加密货币交易平台非法地将其WBTC代币授予，因此可以促进其自己的竞争对手CBBTC。

According to a Dec. 13 complaint, BiT Global alleges that Coinbase's decision to delist wBTC was to massively financially benefit from its own product and that it has caused huge financial losses to the plaintiff and other wBTC investors. The lawsuit also claims that delisting wBTC will ultimately deteriorate consumer confidence in wBTC.

根据12月13日的投诉，BIT Global声称Coinbase对WBTC的决定是从其自己的产品中大大受益匪浅，并且对原告和其他WBTC投资者造成了巨大的财务损失。该诉讼还声称，将WBTC推迟最终会使消费者对WBTC的信心恶化。

The lawsuit covers allegations of attempted monopolization of the wrapped Bitcoin market in violation of the Sherman Act, claims of predatory practices to undermine wBTC's market position and accusations of false statements implying wBTC failed to meet listing standards. It was filed by law firm Kneupper & Covey in the Northern District of California.

该诉讼涵盖了违反《谢尔曼法案》企图垄断包裹比特币市场的指控，掠夺性做法的主张破坏了WBTC的市场地位，并指控虚假陈述表明WBTC未能符合清单标准。它是由加利福尼亚北部地区的律师事务所Kneupper＆Covey提起的。

Lawsuit: Coinbase's Latest List Countless Meme Coins

诉讼：Coinbase的最新清单无数模因硬币

The lawsuit pointed out that in recent months, Coinbase has been rapidly expanding its offerings with the listings of meme coins and tokens like Dogwifhat (WIF), Pepe (PEPE) and Mog Coin (MOG), all of which have "no inherent value."

该诉讼指出，最近几个月，Coinbase通过模因硬币和诸如Dogwifhat（Wif），Pepe（Pepe）和Mog Coin（MOG）等模因硬币和代币的清单迅速扩展其产品，所有这些都没有“固有价值”。

It further stated that these actions suggest Coinbase is engaging in a broader strategy to monopolize the cryptocurrency market.

它进一步指出，这些行动表明Coinbase正在采用更广泛的战略来垄断加密货币市场。

The suit adds that Coinbase's decision to list these memecoins while abruptly pulling out wBTC from the listing demonstrates a complete disregard for any defined listing standards.

该诉讼补充说，Coinbase决定列出这些模因的决定，同时突然从清单中撤出WBTC，这表明对任何定义的清单标准都完全无视。

"Like all the centralized tech giants before it, Coinbase gives lip service to the innovation of a decentralized world. But in the case of wrapped Bitcoin, Coinbase viewed it as just another cash grab," the firm's lawsuit noted.

该公司的诉讼指出：“像之前的所有集中科技巨头一样，Coinbase为分散世界的创新提供了口头服务。但是，对于包裹的比特币，Coinbase将其视为另一种现金抢购。”

Coinbase launched its own wrapped Bitcoin token in September, called Coinbase Wrapped BTC, or cbBTC. Last month, it delisted wBTC, explaining that it did not meet the exchange's listing standards. However, BiT Global alleged Friday that this was an unfair business practice.

Coinbase在9月推出了自己包装的比特币代币，称为Coinbase包装BTC或CBBTC。上个月，它使WBTC脱颖而出，并解释说它不符合交易所的上市标准。但是，Bit Global指控周五这是一种不公平的商业实践。

"Having decided to copycat WBTC with its own product, Coinbase resorted to unfair and deceptive tactics that long been used by tech giants to crush their competition. But in this case, they were employed by one of the largest financial institutions in the world to eliminate an industry competitor."

“决定使用自己的产品模仿WBTC，Coinbase诉诸于不公平和欺骗性的策略，这些策略长期以来被科技巨头用来压制他们的竞争。但是在这种情况下，它们是由世界上最大的金融机构之一雇用的，以消除一个行业竞争对手。”

The BitGlobal complaint noted that Coinbase's decision to list Mog just two weeks after delisting wBTC shows that the decision had "nothing to do with standards and everything to do with unfairly and fraudulently pushing wBTC out of the market.”

Bitglobal的投诉指出，Coinbase在脱颖而出的WBTC后仅两周就将MOG列出的决定表明，该决定“与标准无关，与不公平和欺诈地将WBTC推出市场无关。”

What Now?

现在什么？

The suit, which was filed by law firm Kneupper & Covey in the Northern District of California, seeks damages in an amount to be proven at trial, which could exceed $1 billion. It also includes demands for injunctive relief to prevent further harm to BiT Global and other wBTC investors from Coinbase's alleged unlawful conduct.

该诉讼是由律师事务所在加利福尼亚北部地区提起的，在审判中寻求赔偿金，该赔偿金可能超过10亿美元。它还包括对禁令救济的要求，以防止Coinbase所谓的非法行为对BIT Global和其他WBTC投资者的进一步损害。

"We believe this decision sets a terrible precedent for everyone in the cryptocurrency space," stated attorney Kevin Kneupper. "If an exchange of Coinbase's size can delist a cryptocurrency just as it plans to launch its own competing product, who's safe? And who's next?"

律师凯文·克内普（Kevin Kneupper）说：“我们认为，这一决定为加密货币空间中的每个人都设定了一个可怕的先例。” “如果交换Coinbase的尺寸可以像计划推出自己的竞争产品一样安全的加密货币，谁是安全的？
