Tether 起诉 Swan Bitcoin，指控其比特币矿业公司违反合同

Swan Bitcoin 正在英格兰和威尔士高等法院被知名稳定币发行商 Tether 起诉。涉嫌违反合同涉及他们的联合比特币挖矿公司 2040 Energy，这是此案的基础。

Swan Bitcoin, a popular Bitcoin-only exchange, is facing a High Court lawsuit filed by Tether, the issuer of the widely used stablecoin USDT. The legal dispute stems from alleged contract breaches related to their joint Bitcoin mining company, 2040 Energy.

Swan Bitcoin 是一家受欢迎的比特币交易所，它正面临由广泛使用的稳定币 USDT 发行商 Tether 提起的高等法院诉讼。这场法律纠纷源于他们联合成立的比特币挖矿公司 2040 Energy 涉嫌违反合同。

According to court documents, Tether owns 80% of 2040 Energy, while Swan Bitcoin holds the remaining 20%. The partnership was established in 2022 with the goal of generating profits for Swan that would be contingent on Tether fully recovering its initial investment in the venture.

根据法庭文件，Tether 拥有 2040 Energy 80% 的股份，而 Swan Bitcoin 则持有剩余 20% 的股份。该合作伙伴关系于 2022 年建立，目标是为 Swan 创造利润，这取决于 Tether 完全收回其在该合资企业的初始投资。

However, the partnership encountered difficulties, leading to Tether's claim that it fulfilled its contractual obligations while accusing Swan of mismanagement that ultimately harmed the joint venture.

然而，双方的合作遇到了困难，Tether 声称自己履行了合同义务，同时指责 Swan 管理不善，最终损害了合资企业的利益。

In response to the lawsuit, Swan Bitcoin acknowledged the legal action but declined to provide specific commentary on the allegations. The company stated that it will "vigorously defend" itself against the claims.

作为对诉讼的回应，天鹅比特币承认采取了法律行动，但拒绝对这些指控提供具体评论。该公司表示，将针对这些指控“积极辩护”。

This lawsuit adds another layer to a broader dispute that began in September, when Swan filed a separate lawsuit against former mining employees and contractors. The company alleged that they misappropriated proprietary information to form Proton Management.

这起诉讼为 9 月份开始的更广泛的纠纷增添了新的层面，当时 Swan 对前采矿员工和承包商提起了单独的诉讼。该公司声称他们盗用专有信息来成立 Proton Management。

While Tether was not named in Swan's earlier lawsuit, its decision to involve the UK courts now highlights unresolved tensions over the management of 2040 Energy, as reported by Blockspace.

据 Blockspace 报道，虽然 Swan 之前的诉讼中没有提到 Tether 的名字，但其将英国法院卷入其中的决定凸显了 2040 Energy 管理方面尚未解决的紧张关系。

Swan had previously characterized the employee departures as a "corporate coup," accusing them of attempting to wrest control of its mining operations. Tether's lawsuit further raises questions about Swan's adherence to their agreements and the overall handling of the venture.

斯旺此前曾将员工离职描述为“公司政变”，指责他们试图夺取对其采矿业务的控制权。 Tether 的诉讼进一步引发了人们对 Swan 遵守协议和合资企业整体处理的质疑。

The outcome of this legal battle will be closely watched by both Tether and Swan Bitcoin, with far-reaching implications beyond their financial stakes. The case also underscores the challenges of managing joint ventures in the rapidly evolving cryptocurrency space.

Tether 和 Swan Bitcoin 都将密切关注这场法律战的结果，其深远影响超出了他们的财务利益。该案例还凸显了在快速发展的加密货币领域管理合资企业所面临的挑战。
