Coinbase Legal Loss: Supreme Court Rejects Exchange’s Arbitration Bid in Dogecoin Sweepstakes Case

Coinbase 法律损失：最高法院驳回交易所在狗狗币抽奖案中的仲裁请求

Coinbase suffered a legal setback on Monday after the US Supreme Court ruled against the cryptocurrency exchange in a dispute over a Dogecoin sweepstakes that went awry.

周一，美国最高法院就狗狗币抽奖活动出现纠纷，对加密货币交易所做出了不利于该加密货币交易所的裁决，此后，Coinbase 周一遭遇法律挫折。

A group of users had accused the trading platform of false advertising, claiming they were misled into paying $100 to enter the sweepstakes, sparking a legal battle that reached the highest court in the land.

一群用户指责该交易平台存在虚假广告，声称他们被误导而支付 100 美元才能参加抽奖，引发了一场法律诉讼，并最终闹到了该国最高法院。

Coinbase’s top lawyer, Paul Grewal, took to Mastodon X to comment on the ruling, writing: “What a week. Some you win. Some you lose. We are grateful for having had the opportunity to present our case to the Court and appreciate the Court’s consideration of this matter.”

Coinbase 的顶级律师 Paul Grewal 在 Mastodon X 上对裁决发表评论，他写道：“这真是一周了。有些你赢了。有些你会失去。我们很高兴有机会向法院陈述我们的案件，并感谢法院对此事的考虑。”

The crypto exchange sought to compel the users to engage in arbitration, a process typically favored by businesses as it allows for disputes to be resolved outside of court proceedings.

该加密货币交易所试图迫使用户参与仲裁，这一过程通常受到企业青睐，因为它允许在法庭程序之外解决争议。

Coinbase users had agreed to resolve disputes through arbitration when they signed up for the exchange’s services. However, the Dogecoin sweepstakes encountered a legal hurdle as a separate agreement stated that any disputes regarding the contest would be settled in a California court. The user agreement’s arbitration provision clashed with the forum selection clause stipulated for the sweepstakes contest.

Coinbase用户在注册交易所服务时已同意通过仲裁解决争议。然而，狗狗币抽奖活动遇到了法律障碍，因为一项单独的协议规定，有关比赛的任何争议将在加州法院解决。用户协议的仲裁条款与抽奖比赛规定的论坛选择条款发生冲突。

A federal judge in California and the 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals both ruled against Coinbase in the matter, leading the exchange to file an appeal with the Supreme Court.

加利福尼亚州的一名联邦法官和美国第九巡回上诉法院均在此事上做出了对 Coinbase 不利的裁决，导致该交易所向最高法院提起上诉。

The high court agreed to take up the dispute in November, and while the justices did not explicitly side with the 9th Circuit, they unanimously ruled that Coinbase was not entitled to compel arbitration.

高等法院于 11 月同意受理该纠纷，虽然法官们没有明确站在第九巡回法院一边，但他们一致裁定 Coinbase 无权强制仲裁。

Coinbase had argued that not allowing it to force arbitration would wreak havoc, but the Supreme Court was not swayed by this claim.

Coinbase 辩称，不允许其强制仲裁会造成严重破坏，但最高法院并没有被这一说法所动摇。
