Terraform Labs 將支付 4.47B 美元和解 SEC 對 UST 崩潰的詐欺指控

加密貨幣歷史上最大的崩盤之一終於結束了。現已解散的 UST 穩定幣背後的公司 Terraform Labs 已同意向美國證券交易委員會支付 44.7 億美元。

Terraform Labs, the company behind the collapsed UST stablecoin, has agreed to pay the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission $4.47 billion to settle civil fraud charges.

崩潰的 UST 穩定幣背後的公司 Terraform Labs 已同意向美國證券交易委員會支付 44.7 億美元，以和解民事詐欺指控。

The SEC on Friday asked a federal judge in the United States Southern District of New York to approve the settlement, which was reached two months after a unanimous jury found Terraform and its co-founder Do Kwon liable for civil fraud.

週五，美國證券交易委員會要求美國紐約南區聯邦法官批准和解協議，該協議是在陪審團一致認定 Terraform 及其聯合創始人 Do Kwon 承擔民事欺詐責任兩個月後達成的。

The charges stemmed from allegations that Terraform misled investors and engaged in practices that ultimately led to the loss of billions of dollars in investors' funds.

這些指控源於對 Terraform 誤導投資者並最終導致投資者資金損失數十億美元的行為的指控。

According to a court filing, Terraform will pay roughly $3.59 billion plus interest, along with a $420 million penalty. Kwon will pay $204.3 million, including $110 million in disgorgement, interest and an $80 million penalty.

根據法庭文件，Terraform 將支付約 35.9 億美元加利息，以及 4.2 億美元的罰款。 Kwon 將支付 2.043 億美元，其中包括 1.1 億美元的非法所得、利息和 8,000 萬美元的罰款。

The settlement is one of the largest ever levied by the SEC in a crypto case. However, it is just a fraction of the losses incurred by investors when UST collapsed in May 2022.

和解協議是 SEC 在加密貨幣案件中徵收的最大金額之一。然而，這只是 2022 年 5 月 UST 崩盤時投資者損失的一小部分。

At the time, Terraform's native token, LUNA, and UST were inextricably linked in a mechanism designed to keep UST pegged to the U.S. dollar. But a sharp drop in the price of LUNA caused UST to lose its peg, setting off a downward price spiral and run on deposits that wiped out nearly $50 billion of UST's market cap in a matter of days.

當時，Terraform 的原生代幣 LUNA 和 UST 在一種旨在使 UST 與美元掛鉤的機制中有著千絲萬縷的聯繫。但 LUNA 價格的大幅下跌導致 UST 失去了錨定匯率，引發了價格螺旋式下降，存款擠兌在幾天之內就蒸發了 UST 近 500 億美元的市值。

The collapse was so impactful that two years on, Terra-induced PTSD continues to sound the alarms on any project that offers double-digit yields.

這次崩潰的影響如此之大，以至於兩年後，Terra 引發的創傷後壓力症候群 (PTSD) 繼續對任何提供兩位數收益率的項目敲響警鐘。

But the astronomical $4.4 billion settlement has also raised questions about whether Terraform even has the money to pay off the debt.

但 44 億美元的天文數字和解金也引發了人們對 Terraform 是否有錢償還債務的質疑。
