意見：德國當局關閉了有爭議的加密平台交流，聲稱該平台正在幫助犯罪分子隱藏被盜的錢。

German authorities have shut down the controversial crypto platform eXch over claims that the platform was helping criminals hide stolen money.

德國當局關閉了有爭議的加密平台交流，聲稱該平台正在幫助犯罪分子隱藏被盜的錢。

German law enforcement also seized €34 million ($38 million) worth of crypto from eXch. This money was part of the funds stolen from an earlier attack on crypto exchange Bybit.

德國執法部門還從交易所扣押了3400萬歐元（3800萬美元）的加密貨幣。這筆錢是較早對加密交易所Bybit的襲擊中被盜的資金的一部分。

Bybit lost $1.4 billion in February following a heavy attack by the North Korea-backed Lazarus Group. The criminal platform deployed several measures to move the funds, including using multiple addresses and using mixing platforms like eXch.

在朝鮮支持的拉撒路集團（Lazarus Group）的嚴重襲擊之後，拜比特（Bybit）在2月損失了14億美元。犯罪平台採取了多種措施來移動資金，包括使用多個地址以及使用Exch等混合平台。

Although eXch claimed there was no wrongdoing on its part, authorities argued that it did little to verify the source of funds exiting and entering its platform.

儘管交換聲稱沒有任何不當行為，但當局辯稱，它幾乎沒有驗證退出並進入其平台的資金來源。

Since 2014, eXch has been facilitating the exchange of various cryptocurrencies for its users. However, critics argue that its poor supervision made it a safe spot for hiding stolen funds. German police said that over $1.9 billion had moved through eXch over the years, including money linked to many crypto crimes.

自2014年以來，Exch一直在為用戶提供各種加密貨幣的交換。但是，批評家認為，其不良的監督使其成為隱藏被盜資金的安全地點。德國警方表示，多年來，超過19億美元的交換已經轉移了，包括與許多加密犯罪有關的錢。

According to German authorities, eXch failed to adhere to anti-money laundering rules (AML). AML rules simply prevent criminals from easily using platforms to move their funds. Most countries take these rules seriously and even penalize platforms that fail to adhere to them.

根據德國當局的說法，交換未能遵守反洗錢規則（AML）。 AML規則只是阻止犯罪分子輕鬆使用平台來移動其資金。大多數國家都認真對待這些規則，甚至對未能遵守它們的平台進行懲罰。

“A press release just posted from the Frankfurt prosecutors office revealed the instant exchange ‘eXch’ had 34M euros and infrastructure for the platform seized by law enforcment.

“剛剛從法蘭克福檢察官辦公室發布的新聞稿顯示，即時交易所“交易所”擁有3400萬歐元和基礎設施，用於執法執行扣除的平台。

Interestingly, eXch has also been linked to other notable crypto crimes, including the Multisig and Genesis thefts. Even after these cases, the platform refused to block bad accounts or freeze stolen funds.

有趣的是，Exch還與其他值得注意的加密犯罪有關，包括Multisig和Genesis盜竊。即使在這些情況下，該平台也拒絕阻止不良帳戶或凍結被盜資金。

eXch announces plans to quit.

Exch宣布計劃退出。

eXch’s case in Germany comes weeks after it announced plans to shut down due to increased pressure. The team claimed authorities made its operations difficult, citing a “hostile environment” as its core reason for quitting.

由於壓力增加，英格在德國的案件在德國宣布關閉的幾週後。該團隊聲稱當局使其運營變得困難，理由是“敵對的環境”是其退出的核心原因。

Platforms like eXch and Tornado Cash have faced increased scrutiny lately, with law enforcement agencies claiming these platforms are likely to be used by criminals. Surprisingly, the European Union (EU) recently announced plans to ban privacy-preserving coins and anonymous crypto accounts by 2027.

最近，諸如Exch和Tornado Cash之類的平檯面臨的審查增加了，執法機構聲稱這些平台可能會被罪犯使用。令人驚訝的是，歐盟（EU）最近宣布了計劃到2027年禁止保存隱私的硬幣和匿名加密帳戶的計劃。

The ban, once implemented, would affect coins like $XMR and Zcash. Other regulatory measures in the EU include strong monitoring of transactions exceeding 1,000 euros.

該禁令一旦實施，就會影響$ XMR和ZCASH等硬幣。歐盟的其他監管措施包括對超過1,000歐元的交易進行強有力的監控。
