隨著Ripple和SEC解決他們長期進行的法律糾紛，XRP價格飆升了6％

Ripple與證券交易委員會（SEC）之間的長期法律糾紛終於結束了。監管機構昨天（星期四）確認

The cryptocurrency regulator, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), has confirmed that the regulator and Ripple have reached a settlement agreement.

加密貨幣監管機構，美國證券交易委員會（SEC）已確認監管機構和波紋已達成和解協議。

The regulator said yesterday (Thursday) that both parties have agreed to a $50 million penalty to be paid by the blockchain company. This follows a long-running legal dispute, which began in December 2020.

監管機構昨天（星期四）表示，雙方都同意由區塊鏈公司支付5000萬美元的罰款。這是在一場長期進行的法律糾紛之後，該糾紛始於2020年12月。

The latest settlement amount is a portion of the $125 million initial penalty imposed on Ripple last year by Judge Analisa Torres of the Southern District of New York (SDNY). At that time, the SEC requested a $2 billion penalty against Ripple.

最新的和解金額是去年由紐約南部地區（SDNY）法官Analisa Torres對Ripple施加的1.25億美元初始罰款的一部分。當時，SEC要求對Ripple罰款20億美元。

The regulator alleged that Ripple raised over $1.3 billion by selling XRP tokens in an unregistered securities offering, violating federal securities laws.

監管機構聲稱，Ripple通過在未註冊的證券產品中出售XRP代幣，籌集了超過13億美元，違反了聯邦證券法。

However, the Judge found that Ripple's direct sales of XRP to institutional clients violated federal securities laws, but the programmatic sales of XRP to retail clients through exchanges did not constitute a violation.

但是，法官發現，Ripple將XRP直接銷售給機構客戶違反了聯邦證券法，但是通過交流的XRP的編程銷售並不構成違法行為。

After the earlier court order, both parties appealed: Ripple asked for the penalty to be dismissed, while the SEC sought a higher amount.

在較早的法院命令後，雙方都提出上訴：Ripple要求將罰款被駁回，而SEC則尋求更高的金額。

The regulator also noted that it would return over $75 million currently being held in escrow to Ripple.

該監管機構還指出，目前將在託管中持有的7500萬美元以上的價格將返回到波紋。

“This settlement, alongside the programmatic disassembly of the SEC’s crypto enforcement programme, does a tremendous disservice to the investing public and undermines the court’s role in interpreting our securities laws,” noted SEC Commissioner Caroline Crenshaw in the official announcement.

SEC專員卡羅琳·克倫肖（Caroline Crenshaw）在官方公告中指出：“這項和解以及SEC加密執法計劃的程序化拆卸，對投資公眾造成了極大的傷害，並破壞了法院在解釋我們的證券法方面的作用。”

The settlement comes weeks after Paul Atkins took over as the SEC Chair. Atkins is viewed as a crypto-friendly individual, unlike his predecessor, Gary Gensler.

在保羅·阿特金斯（Paul Atkins）接任SEC主席後數週之後。與他的前任Gary Gensler不同，Atkins被視為一個對加密貨幣友好的人。

However, Garlinghouse confirmed the end of the SEC battle in mid-March. This suggests that the settlement was confirmed when Mark Uyeda headed the regulatory agency in an acting capacity. Uyeda also dropped multiple other high-profile crypto lawsuits and investigations.

但是，加林豪斯（Garlinghouse）在3月中旬確認了SEC戰鬥的結束。這表明，當馬克·烏耶達（Mark Uyeda）以代理能力領導監管機構時，確定了解決方案。 Uyeda還放棄了其他多個備受矚目的加密訴訟和調查。
