How Steaker Allegedly Drew Funds with Up to 88% Return Promises

据称如何以多达88％的回报承诺吸取了牛排馆的资金

According to prosecutors, Steaker operated multiple virtual currency investment plans that began in 2019 and promised investors annual returns ranging from 3.5% to 88%. The company drew funds in Tether, Bitcoin, and Ethereum while claiming the investments were protected by a user asset security fund, or SAFU, in partnership with security firm CYBAVO. It is also said to have used a bank account in Taiwan for collecting funds from investors.

根据检察官的说法，Steaker在2019年开始运行多种虚拟货币投资计划，并承诺投资者年收益率从3.5％到88％不等。该公司声称投资是由用户资产安全基金（SAFU）与安全公司Cybavo合作的，该公司在绳索，比特币和以太坊中汲取了资金。据说它也使用台湾的银行帐户从投资者那里收取资金。

The charges claim that Steaker assured investors of principal and interest protection, a practice that regulators have stated can be interpreted as taking deposits without appropriate licenses. Over three years, the plans are said to have attracted hundreds of millions of dollars in New Taiwan.

这些指控声称，牛排向投资者保证了本金和利息保护的投资者，监管机构已经说的做法可以解释为没有适当许可的存款。据说这些计划在新台湾吸引了数亿美元。

Prosecutors: Steaker Investor Funds Sent to FTX, Lost in Collapse

检察官：牛排式投资者资金发送给FTX，崩溃损失

Investigators report that once investor funds reached a certain threshold, they were transferred to wallets under Huang’s control on FTX. According to the prosecution, these funds were used for profitable trading and high-return lending to capture price differences.

调查人员报告说，一旦投资者资金达到一定的门槛，他们就会在黄对FTX的控制下转移到钱包。根据起诉，这些资金用于盈利交易和高回报贷款，以捕获价格差异。

And when FTX collapsed in November 2022, Steaker thereby lost access to its funds and could not meet investor obligations.

当FTX在2022年11月倒闭时，牛排就无法获得其资金，无法履行投资者义务。

Additional findings show that a portion of the virtual assets were redirected from FTX to private currency traders and used to cover salaries for Steaker employees.

其他发现表明，一部分虚拟资产从FTX重定向到私人货币交易者，并用于覆盖牛排员雇员的薪水。
