SEC放弃了针对DRW的加密货币贸易部门Cumberland DRW的执法案

美国证券交易委员会（SEC）已同意撤销其针对总部位于芝加哥贸易公司DRW的加密货币贸易部门Cumberland DRW的执法案件

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has agreed to drop its enforcement case against Cumberland DRW, the crypto trading arm of Chicago-based trading firm DRW, the company announced Tuesday.

该公司周二宣布，美国证券交易委员会（SEC）已同意撤销其针对总部位于芝加哥贸易公司DRW的加密货币贸易部门Cumberland DRW的执法案件。

The SEC sued Cumberland DRW last October, accusing the firm of acting as an unregistered securities dealer and alleging it sold more than $2 billion in unregistered securities, naming tokens like Polygon (POL), Solana (SOL), Cosmos (ATOM), Algorand (ALGO) and Filecoin (FIL) as a “non-exhaustive” list of tokens the agency considered to be securities.

The SEC sued Cumberland DRW last October, accusing the firm of acting as an unregistered securities dealer and alleging it sold more than $2 billion in unregistered securities, naming tokens like Polygon (POL), Solana (SOL), Cosmos (ATOM), Algorand (ALGO) and Filecoin (FIL) as a “non-exhaustive” list of tokens the agency considered to be securities.

At the time the suit was filed, Cumberland DRW and its CEO Don Wilson pledged to fight the charges. In an interview with CoinDesk last October, Wilson said that his firm had tried and failed to register as a securities dealer with the SEC, and suggested that the lack of clarity for crypto companies was a feature, not a bug of the agency’s regulatory approach.

在提起诉讼时，坎伯兰德DRW及其首席执行官唐·威尔逊（Don Wilson）承诺与指控作斗争。威尔逊在去年10月接受Coindesk采访时说，他的公司曾尝试并未能在SEC注册为证券交易，并建议对加密货币公司缺乏明确性是一项功能，而不是该机构监管方法的错误。

“This dynamic put the SEC in a position where they could say everyone is breaking the rule, and we’re just going to go after whoever we want to,” Wilson told CoinDesk. “It reminds me of ‘Atlas Shrugged.’ If everybody is breaking the law, they get to selectively harass whoever they want to.”

威尔逊告诉Coindesk：“这种动态使SEC处于一个可以说每个人都在违反规则的位置，而我们只要追随我们想要的任何人。” “这让我想起了'Atlas耸了耸肩'。如果每个人都违反法律，他们就会有选择地骚扰他们想要的人。”

Just five months later, under the new leadership of Acting Chair Mark Uyeda, the SEC has completely reversed course. The agency’s decision to drop its suit against Cumberland DRW is the latest in a series of abandoned lawsuits: the SEC has also dropped its case against Coinbase (COIN), and agreed to drop its cases against ConsenSys and Kraken. It has also closed a multitude of probes into crypto companies, including Gemini, OpenSea, Robinhood (HOOD) Crypto and Yuga Labs.

仅五个月后，在代理主席马克·乌耶达（Mark Uyeda）的新领导下，SEC完全扭转了路线。该机构决定针对坎伯兰德DRW提起诉讼的决定是一系列废弃诉讼中的最新诉讼：SEC还放弃了对Coinbase（Coin）的案件，并同意将其针对Consensys和Kraken案件撤销。它还关闭了包括Gemini，Opensea，Robinhood（Hood）Crypto和Yuga Labs在内的加密货币公司的大量调查。

As with its ConsenSys and Kraken agreements, the SEC's agreement with Cumberland is pending approval from a majority of the three commissioners currently on the panel. The Commission voted to drop its Coinbase case last week.

与其一致性和Kraken协议一样，SEC与Cumberland的协议正在等待目前在小组中的三名专员中的大多数批准。该委员会上周投票决定放弃其Coinbase案。

“As a firm deeply committed to the principles of integrity and transparency, we look forward to continuing our dialogue with the SEC to help shape a future where technological advancements and regulatory clarity go hand in hand, ensuring that the U.S. remains at the forefront of global financial innovation,” Cumberland said in its announcement.

坎伯兰郡在宣布其宣布中说：“作为一家致力于诚信和透明度原则的公司，我们期待继续与SEC进行对话，以帮助塑造未来的技术进步和监管清晰度，以确保美国在全球金融创新的最前沿。”
