加密货币交易所的创始人在加利福尼亚州的法院被判犯有与反洗钱（AML）相关的同名人物（AML）。

在3月12日在加利福尼亚北部地区的美国地方法院进行的一次审判中，陪审团裁定AML比特币创作者罗兰·马库斯·安德拉德（Rowland Marcus Andrade）犯有两项重罪罪名，这是欺骗投资者的计划的一部分。

A California jury has found the founder of cryptocurrency exchange AML Bitcoin, Rowland Marcus Andrade, guilty of two felony counts of wire fraud and money laundering.

加利福尼亚州的一个陪审团发现了加密货币交易所AML比特币的创始人，罗兰·马库斯·安德拉德（Rowland Marcus Andrade），犯有两项重罪的电汇欺诈和洗钱。

The verdict, reached on March 12 in the US District Court for the Northern District of California, concludes a case that began with criminal charges filed by the Justice Department in June 2020. These charges ran parallel to a civil case filed by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) against Andrade and the NAC Foundation, of which he was the founder and CEO.

该判决于3月12日在美国加利福尼亚北部地区的美国地方法院达成，案件始于2020年6月司法部于2020年6月提起的刑事指控。这些指控与美国证券交易委员会（SEC）对Andrade及其NAC基金会提出的民事案件平行。

The SEC's case notably involved political lobbyist Jack Abramoff, who served four years in prison between 2006 and 2010 following his conviction on mail fraud, conspiracy to bribe public officials and tax evasion. A judge agreed to stay the SEC lawsuit in January 2021 until the conclusion of Andrade's criminal case, suggesting that it may now proceed.

SEC的案件特别涉及政治游说者杰克·艾布拉莫夫（Jack Abramoff），后者在2006年至2010年在邮寄欺诈，串谋贿赂公职人员和逃税之后被判入狱四年。法官同意在2021年1月持续SEC诉讼，直到安德拉德（Andrade）的刑事案件结束，这表明现在可以进行。

The indictment claimed that the NAC Foundation, for which Andrade was the founder and CEO, asserted its cryptocurrency, AML Bitcoin, which ultimately never launched, would fully comply with money laundering and Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations. Andrade allegedly used these claims to solicit investors for an initial coin offering between 2017 and 2018.

起诉书声称，Andrade是创始人兼首席执行官的NAC基金会断言其加密货币AML比特币（最终从未启动）将完全遵守洗钱，并了解您的客户（KYC）法规。据称，安德拉德（Andrade）使用这些主张来征集投资者在2017年至2018年之间的初始硬币。

According to the IRS, Andrade misappropriated and diverted more than $2 million in proceeds from the sale of the AML Bitcoin token to be used for the foundation's operations. Instead, he allegedly spent the funds on his personal expenses, including the purchase of two properties in California and luxury vehicles, such as a Rolls-Royce Dawn and a Mercedes-Benz S-Class.

根据国税局的说法，安德拉德（Andrade）盗用并转移了超过200万美元的收益，用于出售AML比特币代币，用于基金会的运营。取而代之的是，据称他将这些资金用于个人支出，包括在加利福尼亚州购买两家物业和豪华车辆，例如劳斯莱斯黎明和梅赛德斯 - 奔驰S级。

"Andrade falsely claimed, among other misrepresentations, that the Panama Canal Authority was close to permitting AML Bitcoin to be used for ships passing through the Panama Canal when no such agreement existed," added the Justice Department in a March 13 statement.

司法部在3月13日的声明中补充说：“安德拉德（Andrade）错误地声称，除其他虚假陈述外，巴拿马运河权限即将允许在没有这种协议的情况下将AML比特币用于穿过巴拿马运河的船只。”

Andrade's sentencing hearing is scheduled for July 22. He remains free on a $75,000 bond with some travel restrictions. The sentence for the wire fraud count carries a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison, while the money laundering count is punishable by a maximum of 10 years.

安德拉德（Andrade）的宣判听证会定于7月22日举行。他仍然免费获得75,000美元的债券，并有一些旅行限制。电汇欺诈罪的刑期最高判处20年监禁，而洗钱罪最多可判处10年。
