Mt Gox 前首席执行官 Mark Karpelès 带着 EllipX 重返加密行业，EllipX 是一家总部位于波兰的新交易所，以安全性和透明度为主要卖点。

French entrepreneur Mark Karpelès, who was once at the helm of collapsed cryptocurrency exchange Mt Gox, is back in the crypto industry with a new venture.

曾掌管倒闭的加密货币交易所 Mt Gox 的法国企业家马克·卡佩莱斯 (Mark Karpelès) 带着一家新企业重返加密行业。

His latest project is EllipX, a cryptocurrency exchange that is based in Poland and has been touting its security and transparency features as its main selling points, according to Karpelès, who spoke to the Financial Times. Backed by Edip Nezir, an investor who is based in Dubai, it has 17,000 users mainly in Europe but is hoping to expand elsewhere, he added.

据接受英国《金融时报》采访的卡佩莱斯称，他的最新项目是 EllipX，这是一家总部位于波兰的加密货币交易所，一直将其安全性和透明度功能作为其主要卖点。他补充说，在迪拜投资者 Edip Nezir 的支持下，该公司拥有 17,000 名用户，主要在欧洲，但希望扩展到其他地方。

This includes in the UK, where EllipX is seeking approval from the Financial Conduct Authority, the City regulator, which requires crypto companies that want to offer services in Britain to meet anti-money laundering rules and register with it. The FCA did not comment when contacted by the FT.

其中包括在英国，EllipX 正在寻求金融市场监管机构金融行为监管局的批准，该监管机构要求想要在英国提供服务的加密货币公司满足反洗钱规则并在其注册。英国《金融时报》联系 FCA 时未予置评。

Karpe焚s said he had “quite a few” regrets about Mt Gox, which he acquired in 2011, two years after it was founded by Jed McCaleb, the creator of Stellar. “I wish I could have done better,” he added.

卡普·菲尔斯表示，他对 Mt Gox 感到“相当多”的遗憾，他于 2011 年收购了 Mt Gox，距离 Stellar 创始人杰德·麦卡莱布 (Jed McCaleb) 创立该公司两年后。 “我希望我能做得更好，”他补充道。

However, the disaster was not proving to be an obstacle to building a new exchange, he argued. “A lot of customers who know about Mt Gox actually find it interesting to see what kind of solutions I come up with to restore trust.”

然而，他认为，这场灾难并没有成为建立新交易所的障碍。 “很多了解 Mt Gox 的客户实际上都觉得很有趣，看看我想出了什么样的解决方案来恢复信任。”

He said he had developed EllipX because security and transparency in the crypto industry, which were lacking when he ran Mt Gox, were still not widespread.

他表示，他之所以开发 EllipX，是因为加密行业的安全性和透明度尚未普及，而这在他经营 Mt Gox 时是缺乏的。

“There are some exchanges that are transparent and some that are not. There is no standardisation,” he added.

“有些交易所是透明的，有些则不透明。没有标准化，”他补充道。

The Mt Gox disaster was one of the first big crises to hit the crypto market, which was created with the launch of bitcoin in 2009. At one point the exchange accounted for 80 per cent of all bitcoin trades and its subsequent failure sent shock waves through the industry.

Mt Gox 灾难是加密货币市场遭遇的首批重大危机之一，该市场是随着 2009 年比特币的推出而引发的。该交易所一度占据了所有比特币交易的 80%，随后的失败给整个加密货币市场带来了冲击。行业。

Two Russians were charged in 2023 by the US Department of Justice with conspiring to launder 647,000 bitcoins hacked from Mt Gox in 2011, the same year that Karpelès acquired the exchange.

2023 年，美国司法部指控两名俄罗斯人合谋洗钱 2011 年（即 Karpelès 收购该交易所）从 Mt Gox 窃取的 647,000 枚比特币。

The implosion of Mt Gox led to Karpelès being arrested in 2015 and spending almost a year in custody in Japan before being released on bail. He said that while in detention he was allowed to purchase a simple calculator, which he used to sift through 20,000 pages of evidence, including 5,000 pages of accounting records, and begin building a defence.

Mt Gox 的内爆导致卡佩莱斯于 2015 年被捕，并在日本被拘留了近一年，然后才获得保释。他说，在拘留期间，他被允许购买一个简单的计算器，他用它来筛选 20,000 页证据，包括 5,000 页会计记录，并开始建立辩护。

While he was found not guilty of the more serious charges he faced, the Tokyo district court concluded that Karpelès had caused “massive harm to the trust of his users” by falsifying records.

虽然他所面临的更严重的指控被判无罪，但东京地方法院得出结论，卡佩莱斯因伪造记录而“严重损害了用户的信任”。
