FTX 起诉币安和前首席执行官赵展鹏，索赔 $1.8B，指控欺诈性股票交易

该诉讼于周日（11 月 10 日）由 FTX 破产财产提起，主要围绕 FTX 所称的“欺诈”股票交易。

FTX is suing cryptocurrency exchange Binance and its former CEO for $1.8 billion.

FTX 正在起诉加密货币交易所 Binance 及其前首席执行官，索赔 18 亿美元。

The lawsuit, filed Sunday (Nov. 10) by the FTX bankruptcy estate, centers around what FTX labeled a “fraudulent” share deal. It also accuses ex-Binance chief executive Chanpeng Zhao of orchestrating a “campaign to destroy” his one-time rival crypto exchange.

该诉讼于周日（11 月 10 日）由 FTX 破产财产提起，主要围绕 FTX 所称的“欺诈”股票交易。它还指责币安前首席执行官赵长鹏策划了一场“摧毁”他曾经的竞争对手加密货币交易所的运动。

The share deal happened in July of 2021, when Binance, Zhao and other executives sold a 20% stake in FTX back to the company for $1.7 billion in crypto. The suit argues that the transaction — part of a deal made with FTX founder/convicted fraudster Sam Bankman-Fried — should not have gone forward.

此次股权交易发生在 2021 年 7 月，当时币安、赵和其他高管以 17 亿美元的加密货币将 FTX 20% 的股权出售给该公司。该诉讼称，该交易是与 FTX 创始人/被定罪的欺诈者 Sam Bankman-Fried 达成的交易的一部分，不应该继续进行。

According to the suit, FTX and sister company Alameda Research “may have been insolvent from inception and certainly were balance-sheet insolvent by early 2021,” and thus the resale deal should not have been permitted.

根据诉讼，FTX 和姊妹公司 Alameda Research“可能从一开始就资不抵债，到 2021 年初资产负债表肯定也资不抵债”，因此转售交易不应被允许。

Binance had announced in November of 2022 that it was going to begin liquidating its holdings of FTX’s FTT token.

币安于 2022 年 11 月宣布，将开始清算其持有的 FTX FTT 代币。

“A competitor is trying to go after us with false rumors,” Bankman-Fried said on Twitter soon after. “FTX is fine. Assets are fine.”

班克曼-弗里德不久后在推特上表示：“竞争对手正试图用虚假谣言来攻击我们。” “FTX 很好。资产没问题。”

Later, Binance emerged as a possible rescuer, with the heads of the two companies announcing a deal for Binance to acquire its rival.

后来，币安成为了可能的救援者，两家公司的负责人宣布了币安收购其竞争对手的协议。

However, that deal fell apart the following day, with Binance saying that its due diligence — along with reports of mishandled customer funds at FTX — had led it to walk away from the purchase.

然而，这笔交易第二天就破裂了，币安表示，其尽职调查以及有关 FTX 客户资金处理不当的报告导致其放弃了此次收购。

The Binance suit is the latest in a series of actions by FTX to recover lost funds for its creditors. Last week, the company filed suit against former Trump administration official Anthony Scaramucci and his company SkyBridge Capital.

币安诉讼是 FTX 为债权人追回损失资金而采取的一系列行动中的最新一起。上周，该公司对前特朗普政府官员安东尼·斯卡拉穆奇及其公司天桥资本提起诉讼。

That action claims that FTX hopes to claw back money that was part of “a campaign of influence-buying” by Bankman-Fried, carried out as the company was struggling to meet its cash flow needs.

该行动声称，FTX 希望收回属于 Bankman-Fried“影响力购买活动”一部分的资金，该活动是在该公司难以满足现金流需求时进行的。

“These ‘investments’ conveyed little to no benefit to Debtors, and instead served only to prop up Bankman-Fried’s standing in the worlds of politics and traditional finance,” the suit says, adding he then attempted to leverage as “potential sources of equity investment in FTX to fill the hole in the balance sheet and, therefore, keep his scheme afloat.”

诉讼称：“这些‘投资’几乎没有给债务人带来任何好处，相反，只是为了支撑班克曼-弗里德在政治和传统金融领域的地位。”他还补充说，他随后试图利用杠杆作为“潜在的股权来源”。对 FTX 的投资是为了填补资产负债表上的漏洞，从而使他的计划得以继续。”
