美国证券交易委员会（SEC）宣布关闭其对双子座加密货币交易所的调查

根据双子座联合创始人卡梅隆·温克尔沃斯（Cameron Winklevoss）的通知，美国证券交易委员会周一告知其法律团队，调查已经结束，并且根据可用的信息，该机构将目前不建议采取任何执法行动。

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has closed its investigation into Gemini, the crypto exchange founded by the Winklevoss twins, without recommending any enforcement action at this time.

美国证券交易委员会（SEC）已关闭对Winklevoss Twins创立的加密交易所Gemini的调查，而目前不建议采取任何执法行动。

The agency’s decision, which was communicated to Gemini’s legal team on Monday, comes 699 days after the probe began and 277 days after the SEC issued a Wells Notice, signaling the potential for an imminent lawsuit.

该机构的决定于周一与双子座的法律团队传达给了Gemini的法律团队，在调查开始后699天，在SEC发出WELLS通知后的277天，这表明了即将发生的诉讼的潜力。

While this development will provide some relief for Gemini, it’s crucial to highlight that the SEC’s notice does not indicate an acquittal of the company. The agency explicitly stated that its conclusion is not final, leaving open the possibility of future action.

尽管这一发展将为双子座提供一些缓解，但至关重要的是要强调SEC的通知并不表示该公司的无罪释放。该机构明确表示，其结论不是最终的，这使未来行动的可能性开放。

The SEC’s investigation focused on Gemini’s “Earn” program, which the regulator alleged involved the twins’ company offering unregistered securities through a partnership with Genesis Global Capital.

SEC的调查集中在Gemini的“赚钱”计划上，监管机构称，该计划涉及双胞胎公司通过与Genesis Global Capital的合作伙伴关系提供未注册证券。

The crypto lending firm, which filed for bankruptcy in January 2023, was cooperating with the SEC in its investigation.

该加密贷款公司于2023年1月申请破产，与SEC合作进行了调查。

In his post, Cameron Winklevoss also spoke about the astronomical legal costs that Gemini had to shoulder throughout this ordeal—tens of millions of dollars—and the broader economic losses resulting from the SEC’s actions.

卡梅伦·温克尔沃斯（Cameron Winklevoss）在他的帖子中还谈到了双子座在这场磨难中必须承担的天文法律费用（数百万美元），以及由SEC的行动造成的更广泛的经济损失。

“The intent may have been to protect the American people, but the outcome was to harm American innovation as crypto talent fled to other sectors and good intentions went unfunded,” he wrote.

他写道：“目的可能是保护美国人民，但结果是危害美国创新，因为加密货币人才逃往其他部门，良好的意图没有资金。”

“So where do we go from here? It’s wholly unacceptable for an agency like the SEC to bully, harass, and attack a lawful industry and then decide one day to simply say we’re good and walk away. Unless there is a cost and price to be paid for this behavior, it will happen again.”

“那么我们从这里去哪里？对于像SEC这样的代理机构欺负，骚扰和攻击合法行业，然后决定有一天只是说我们很好，走开了，这是完全不可接受的。除非为此行为支付成本和价格，否则它将再次发生。”

This news comes after the SEC recently withdrew lawsuits against Coinbase and several other major crypto firms, and closed probes into OpenSea, Robinhood, and Uniswap.

SEC最近撤回了针对Coinbase和其他几家主要加密公司的诉讼，并关闭了对Opensea，Robinhood和Uniswap的调查。

This development could also have implications for other high-profile cases, such as the ongoing legal battle involving Ripple Labs.

这种发展也可能对其他备受瞩目的案件产生影响，例如涉及Ripple Labs的正在进行的法律斗争。
