Terraform Labs and Co-Founder Do Kwon Convicted of Crypto Fraud by US Court

Terraform Labs 及其联合创始人 Do Kwon 被美国法院判犯有加密货币欺诈罪

In a landmark verdict, a New York court has convicted Terraform Labs and its co-founder, Do Kwon, of theft by deception in a civil lawsuit filed by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The SEC alleged that Terraform Labs misled investors about the stability of its cryptocurrency, TerraUSD (UST), and its associated token, Luna (LUNA).

在一项具有里程碑意义的判决中，纽约法院在美国证券交易委员会 (SEC) 提起的民事诉讼中判定 Terraform Labs 及其联合创始人 Do Kwon 犯有欺骗盗窃罪。 SEC 指控 Terraform Labs 在其加密货币 TerraUSD (UST) 及其相关代币 Luna (LUNA) 的稳定性方面误导了投资者。

According to the SEC, Terraform Labs failed to disclose the inherent instability of UST and LUNA, prominently marketed as "stablecoins" that were supposedly immune to price fluctuations. The company also allegedly lied about its partnerships with popular Korean mobile payment apps, inflating the perceived legitimacy and value of its crypto assets.

据 SEC 称，Terraform Labs 未能披露 UST 和 LUNA 固有的不稳定性，这两种货币主要作为“稳定币”进行营销，据称不受价格波动的影响。据称，该公司还对其与韩国流行移动支付应用程序的合作关系撒了谎，夸大了其加密资产的合法性和价值。

"We are pleased with today's jury verdict holding Terraform Labs and Do Kwon liable for a massive crypto fraud," said Gubir Grewal, SEC Enforcement Director. "Terraform Labs and Kwon, its former CEO, deceived investors about the stability of their crypto assets and misled investors about their partnerships."

SEC 执法总监 Gubir Grewal 表示：“我们对陪审团今天做出的裁决感到满意，裁定 Terraform Labs 和 Do Kwon 对大规模加密货币欺诈负有责任。” “Terraform Labs 及其前首席执行官 Kwon 在其加密资产的稳定性方面欺骗了投资者，并在其合作伙伴关系方面误导了投资者。”

The trial commenced on March 25 without Kwon, who is currently residing in Montenegro. US and South Korean authorities are currently considering extradition requests to bring him to justice. The jury swiftly convicted Terraform Labs on all six charges, sending a strong message about the inadequate regulation and rampant fraud within the cryptocurrency sector.

审判于 3 月 25 日开始，目前居住在黑山的 Kwon 缺席。美国和韩国当局目前正在考虑引渡请求，将他绳之以法。陪审团迅速判定 Terraform Labs 的全部六项指控有罪，发出了关于加密货币行业监管不力和欺诈猖獗的强烈信息。

The SEC views this verdict as a precedent-setting case that underscores the need for stricter oversight of cryptocurrencies. The collapse of Terraform Labs in May 2022 sent shockwaves through the crypto market, dragging down numerous other crypto companies in its wake.

美国证券交易委员会认为这一判决是一个先例，强调了对加密货币进行更严格监管的必要性。 2022 年 5 月，Terraform Labs 的倒闭给加密货币市场带来了冲击，也拖累了众多其他加密货币公司。

"Today's verdict sends a clear message that those who cheat investors in the crypto market will be held accountable," said Grewal. "The SEC will continue to bring enforcement actions to protect investors and ensure fair and orderly crypto markets."

Grewal 表示：“今天的判决发出了一个明确的信息，即那些在加密货币市场上欺骗投资者的人将被追究责任。” “美国证券交易委员会将继续采取执法行动，以保护投资者并确保加密市场公平有序。”

The SEC's investigation into Terraform Labs and Kwon is ongoing, with the possibility of further charges being filed. The verdict serves as a stark reminder of the risks associated with investing in unregulated cryptocurrencies and the importance of investor due diligence.

美国证券交易委员会对 Terraform Labs 和 Kwon 的调查正在进行中，并有可能提出进一步指控。该判决严厉提醒人们投资不受监管的加密货币所面临的风险以及投资者尽职调查的重要性。
