SEC 上訴法院裁決後，XRP 暴跌 11%

（彭博）—XRP 是一種加密貨幣，一直是其發行人與 SEC 之間長期法律糾紛的焦點，其跌幅高達 11%

The price of XRP, a cryptocurrency that has been at the center of a legal battle between its issuer and the SEC, fell as much as 11% on Thursday after the agency appealed an earlier court ruling that was seen as favorable for the company.

XRP 是一種加密貨幣，一直是其發行人與 SEC 之間法律鬥爭的核心，在該機構對早些時候被認為對該公司有利的法院裁決提出上訴後，其價格週四下跌了 11%。

The SEC sued Ripple Labs Inc in 2020, alleging that the San Francisco-based company broke the law when it raised money by selling the digital token without registering it as a security. Last year, US District Judge Analisa Torres ruled that XRP was only covered by securities law when sold to institutional investors, a decision that was hailed as a major victory for the industry.

美國證券交易委員會 (SEC) 於 2020 年起訴 Ripple Labs Inc，指控這家總部位於舊金山的公司在未將其註冊為證券的情況下透過出售數位代幣籌集資金，違反了法律。去年，美國地區法官 Analisa Torres 裁定 XRP 只有在出售給機構投資者時才受到證券法的管轄，這一決定被譽為該行業的重大勝利。

On Wednesday, the SEC filed an appeal of the court decision, which also ordered Ripple to pay a $125 million civil penalty for improperly selling XRP, a fraction of the $2 billion the regulator had sought.

週三，美國證券交易委員會 (SEC) 對法院判決提出上訴，該判決還要求 Ripple 因不當出售 XRP 支付 1.25 億美元民事罰款，而這只是監管機構要求的 20 億美元罰款的一小部分。

The appeal came a day after Bitwise Asset Management Inc became the first to file with the SEC for an exchange traded fund that would invest directly in XRP, the world’s seventh-largest digital token.

就在一天前，Bitwise 資產管理公司成為第一家向美國證券交易委員會 (SEC) 申請設立直接投資全球第七大數位代幣 XRP 的交易所交易基金的公司。

“There was anticipation that the XRP ETFs were gonna happen and a lot of traders were positioning ahead of the event,” said Zaheer Ebtikar, founder of crypto fund Split Capital. “A lot of long positions on XRP in the futures market got wiped out in the past 24 hours. People are kind of unwinding their positions now.”

加密貨幣基金 Split Capital 創始人 Zaheer Ebtikar 表示：“人們預計 XRP ETF 將會出現，許多交易者都在該事件發生之前進行了建倉。” 「過去 24 小時內，期貨市場上的大量 XRP 多頭部位被清空。人們現在正在解除倉位。

XRP fell as low as 51 cents on Thursday, before recently trading at about 52 cents. It has slumped almost 20% over the past four trading sessions. The token has a market value of roughly $29 billion, according to data compiled by CoinMarketCap.

XRP 週四跌至 51 美分，最近交易價格約為 52 美分。在過去四個交易日中，該股已下跌近 20%。根據 CoinMarketCap 編制的數據，該代幣的市值約為 290 億美元。
