FTX 前首席执行官 Sam Bankman-Fried 被判 25 年监禁

New York, NY - In a momentous conclusion to one of the most high-profile fraud trials in recent history, Sam Bankman-Fried, the former CEO of FTX, was sentenced to 25 years in prison on Thursday. Judge Lewis Kaplan, presiding over the proceedings, found that the "extraordinary dimensions" of Bankman-Fried's crimes warranted a severe punishment, despite arguments from both prosecutors and defense attorneys for a more lenient sentence.

纽约 - FTX 前首席执行官 Sam Bankman-Fried 周四被判处 25 年监禁，这是近代历史上最引人注目的欺诈审判之一的重大结论。主持诉讼的刘易斯·卡普兰法官认为，尽管检察官和辩护律师都主张从轻处罚，但班克曼·弗里德的罪行“规模非凡”，值得严厉处罚。

The sentencing hearing marks the culmination of a saga that has captivated the financial world and beyond. Bankman-Fried, once hailed as a visionary in the cryptocurrency industry, was accused of orchestrating a vast scheme to defraud FTX customers and investors. The collapse of FTX in November 2022 sent shockwaves through the market, wiping out billions of dollars in assets and eroding trust in the cryptocurrency sector.

量刑听证会标志着这场令金融界及其他领域着迷的传奇故事达到高潮。班克曼-弗里德曾被誉为加密货币行业的远见卓识者，他被指控策划了一项大规模的计划来欺骗 FTX 客户和投资者。 2022 年 11 月 FTX 的崩溃给市场带来了冲击，损失了数十亿美元的资产，并削弱了人们对加密货币行业的信任。

At the heart of the prosecution's case was the allegation that Bankman-Fried had diverted customer funds from FTX to Alameda Research, a hedge fund he also controlled. Prosecutors argued that this diversion was done to cover up losses incurred by Alameda's risky investments. Bankman-Fried's defense team contended that he did not intentionally commit fraud, but that his actions were the result of poor management and overwhelming market volatility.

检方案件的核心是指控 Bankman-Fried 将客户资金从 FTX 转移到他也控制的一家对冲基金 Alameda Research。检察官辩称，这种转移是为了掩盖阿拉米达风险投资造成的损失。班克曼-弗里德的辩护团队辩称，他并没有故意实施欺诈，但他的行为是管理不善和市场剧烈波动的结果。

Judge Kaplan rejected the defense's arguments, finding that Bankman-Fried knowingly deceived customers and investors about the true financial condition of FTX. The evidence presented at trial, including testimony from former FTX executives and internal company documents, painted a damning picture of a company operating with a reckless disregard for regulatory compliance and ethical principles.

卡普兰法官驳回了辩方的论点，认为 Bankman-Fried 在 FTX 的真实财务状况方面故意欺骗客户和投资者。审判中提供的证据，包括前 FTX 高管的证词和公司内部文件，描绘了一家公司肆意无视监管合规和道德原则的可怕景象。

In pronouncing the sentence, Judge Kaplan emphasized the severity of Bankman-Fried's crimes. He noted that the collapse of FTX had caused significant financial harm to countless individuals and institutions, and that it had undermined confidence in the entire cryptocurrency market.

卡普兰法官在宣判时强调了班克曼-弗里德罪行的严重性。他指出，FTX 的崩溃给无数个人和机构造成了重大财务损失，并削弱了对整个加密货币市场的信心。

"The judgment has to adequately reflect the seriousness of the crime, and this was a very serious crime," Judge Kaplan said.

卡普兰法官说：“判决必须充分反映犯罪的严重性，这是一项非常严重的犯罪。”

Bankman-Fried's sentencing is a testament to the profound consequences of financial fraud. It sends a clear message that those who abuse their positions of trust and engage in deceptive practices will be held accountable. The sentence also underscores the need for increased regulation and transparency in the cryptocurrency industry.

班克曼-弗里德的判决证明了金融欺诈的深远后果。它发出了一个明确的信息，即那些滥用职权并从事欺骗行为的人将被追究责任。这句话还强调了加密货币行业加强监管和透明度的必要性。

In addition to the prison sentence, Judge Kaplan ordered Bankman-Fried to pay a fine of $1.3 billion and forfeit all his assets. Bankman-Fried has 14 days to file an appeal.

除了监禁之外，卡普兰法官还命令班克曼-弗里德支付 13 亿美元的罚款并没收他的所有资产。班克曼-弗里德有 14 天的时间提出上诉。
