Avraham Eisenberg在芒果市場中撤出了欺詐和操縱定罪

週五，美國地方法院法官阿倫·薩布拉曼尼亞人（Arun Subramanian）裁定，審判中提供的證據未能支持陪審團的結論，即艾森伯格（Eisenberg）對芒果市場做出了重大虛假陳述。

A US federal judge has vacated key fraud and manipulation convictions against Avraham Eisenberg, the trader at the center of a case involving a $110 million exploit of the decentralized exchange Mango Markets.

一名美國聯邦法官已撤消了針對阿夫拉漢姆·艾森伯格（Avraham Eisenberg）的主要欺詐和操縱定罪，該案件的中心是涉及分散的交易所芒果市場的案件中心的交易者。

On Friday, US District Judge Arun Subramanian ruled that the evidence presented at trial failed to support the jury’s conclusion that Eisenberg made materially false representations to Mango Markets.

週五，美國地方法院法官阿倫·薩布拉曼尼亞人（Arun Subramanian）裁定，審判中提供的證據未能支持陪審團的結論，即艾森伯格（Eisenberg）對芒果市場做出了重大虛假陳述。

The decision vacates Eisenberg’s convictions for commodities fraud and market manipulation and acquits him of a third charge, significantly weakening the government’s case.

該決定使艾森伯格對商品欺詐和市場操縱的信念撤消了他的定罪，並使他以第三起指控無罪，這大大削弱了政府的案件。

Eisenberg, a self-proclaimed “applied game theorist,” was convicted in 2024 for artificially inflating the price of Mango’s MNGO token by over 1,300% in a matter of minutes and using the resulting gains as collateral to withdraw $110 million in crypto assets from the platform.

艾森伯格（Eisenberg）是一位自稱為“應用遊戲理論家”，於2024年因人為地在幾分鐘內人為地將Mango的Mngo代幣價格誇大了1,300％以上，並以結果的收益作為抵押品從平台上撤回1.1億美元的加密貨幣資產。

Judge sides with Eisenberg

與艾森伯格的判斷

The Justice Department argued that he deceived Mango’s smart contract-based lending system, but Eisenberg’s defense maintained that he merely exploited poorly designed, permissionless code — without making any false representations.

司法部辯稱，他欺騙了芒果的基於智能合同的貸款系統，但艾森伯格的辯護堅持認為，他只是利用了設計良好的無許可代碼，而沒有做出任何虛假陳述。

Judge Subramanian agreed, writing that “Mango Markets was permissionless and automatic,” meaning the system couldn’t be deceived in a legal sense. “There was insufficient evidence of falsity,” the judge added, siding with Eisenberg’s interpretation of DeFi mechanics.

Subramanian法官同意，他寫道：“芒果市場是無許可和自動的”，這意味著該系統在法律意義上不能被欺騙。法官補充說：“沒有足夠的虛假證據。”

The judge also rejected prosecutors’ argument that the case should be heard in New York. Eisenberg was in Puerto Rico at the time of the trades, and the court found that no meaningful activity tied to the alleged crime occurred in New York.

法官還拒絕了檢察官的論點，即應在紐約審理此案。艾森伯格（Eisenberg）在交易時期在波多黎各，法院裁定，與所謂的犯罪沒有有意義的活動發生在紐約。

The DOJ had cited a Poughkeepsie-based Mango user and a third-party vendor in Manhattan, but the judge ruled these were not enough to establish proper venue.

司法部列舉了一位位於波基普西的芒果用戶和曼哈頓的第三方供應商，但法官裁定這些不足以建立適當的場所。

The US government must now decide whether to refile the vacated charges, though the Trump administration has recently signaled a reduced focus on crypto enforcement. Eisenberg still faces civil suits from both the SEC and CFTC.

美國政府現在必須決定是否對撤離指控進行重新指控，儘管特朗普政府最近表明對加密執法的關注減少了。艾森伯格仍然面臨SEC和CFTC的民事訴訟。

While this ruling clears Eisenberg in the Mango Markets case, he remains behind bars.

儘管這項裁決在芒果市場案中清除了艾森伯格，但他仍在監獄裡。

Eisenberg charged with child pornography

艾森伯格負責兒童色情製品

In a separate case, Eisenberg was sentenced to nearly four years in prison on May 1 after pleading guilty to possessing child pornography — a charge stemming from unrelated evidence uncovered during his arrest.

在另一個案件中，艾森伯格在認罪，於5月1日被判處近四年徒刑，這是因為他被捕期間發現的無關證據，這是指控。

In December 2022, US federal law enforcement authorities had arrested Eisenberg in Puerto Rico. FBI officials charged the hacker with one count of commodities fraud and one count of commodities manipulation.

2022年12月，美國聯邦執法部門在波多黎各逮捕了艾森伯格。聯邦調查局官員指控黑客犯有一項商品欺詐罪和一項商品操縱罪。

A jury found Eisenberg guilty of wire fraud, commodities fraud, and commodities manipulation in April 2024. The defense argued that the exploit was not a cybercrime and represented a “successful and legal trading strategy.”

陪審團於2024年4月裁定艾森伯格犯有電匯欺詐，商品欺詐和商品操縱的罪名。辯方認為，剝削不是網絡犯罪，代表了“成功和法律交易策略”。
