巴塞罗那法院对340万美元的Europa Slu NFT骗局进行了刑事调查

巴塞罗那法院已经对一家涉及加密货币公司Shirtum Europa Slu的340万美元的巴塞罗那足球运动员NFT骗局进行了刑事调查

A Barcelona court has launched a criminal investigation into a $3.4 million non-fungible token (NFT) scam that allegedly defrauded investors in a cryptocurrency firm, and involved high-profile footballers.

巴塞罗那法院对340万美元的不可杀死的代币（NFT）骗局进行了刑事调查，据称该骗局欺骗了一家加密货币公司的投资者，并参与了备受瞩目的足球运动员。

The probe by Barcelona’s Fifth District Court follows a lawsuit filed by 12 investors early this year, claiming they were defrauded by Shirtum Europa SLU in a scheme that also involved football stars.

巴塞罗那第五区法院的调查是在今年早些时候的12名投资者提起的诉讼之后，声称他们在涉及足球明星的计划中遭到了Shirtum Europa Slu的欺诈。

The lawsuit, first reported by Spanish publication El Periodico, claims that investors lost at least €3 million ($3.4 million).

西班牙出版物El Periceico首次报道的诉讼声称，投资者损失了至少300万欧元（340万美元）。

The NFTs, which were advertised as exclusive digital collectibles linked to footballers’ image rights, were sold for over €450 ($513) using the company’s $SHI token. However, the platform failed to deliver a functional product, and funds were allegedly diverted for personal use before the project collapsed.

NFTS被广告宣传为与足球运动员形象权相关的独家数字收藏品，使用公司的$ SHI令牌以超过450欧元（513美元）的价格出售。但是，该平台未能提供功能性产品，据称资金在项目崩溃之前被供个人使用。

Shirtum Europa SLU’s cryptocurrency project was promoted by several footballers, including World Cup winners Alejandro "Papu" Gómez and Lucas Ocampos, as well as Ivan Rakitic, Nico Pareja, Alberto Moreno and Javier Saviola.

惠普（Europa Slu）的加密货币项目是由几位足球运动员促进的，包括世界杯冠军亚历杭德罗·巴布（Alejandro“ Papu”Gómez）和卢卡斯·奥卡莫普斯（Lucas Ocampos），以及伊万·拉基蒂（Ivan Rakitic），尼科·帕雷亚（Nico Pareja），阿尔贝托·莫雷诺（Alberto Moreno）和贾维尔·萨维奥拉（Javier Saviola）。

The Spanish prosecutors claim that Shirtum used the footballers to gain credibility, presenting them as "founders" or ambassadors for the project.

西班牙检察官声称，锡族利用足球运动员获得信誉，将他们作为该项目的“创始人”或大使。

The lawsuit names Manuel Ángel T.P., his son Marc T.G., Manuel M.P., and David R. as the primary orchestrators of the scam, while the footballers are accused of promoting the fraudulent venture.

诉讼称曼努埃尔·ÁngelTP，他的儿子马克·TG，曼努埃尔MP和大卫·R。是骗局的主要编排，而足球运动员则被指控促进了欺诈性的冒险。

Up to 11 alleged crimes, including fraud and tax evasion, are listed in the case, but the players are not considered the main perpetrators.

该案中列出了多达11项所谓的犯罪，包括欺诈和逃税，但球员不被视为主要肇事者。

The footballers, mainly former Sevilla FC players who also played for Barcelona, are being investigated for their promotional roles in the Shirtum project.

足球运动员，主要是前塞维利亚足球俱乐部的球员，他们也为巴塞罗那效力，他们因其在雪情项目中的宣传角色而受到调查。

According to lawyer Ricardo Oliva León of Algoritmo Legal, who is handling the case for the investors, the footballers’ endorsements were crucial in lending legitimacy to the project.

根据正在为投资者处理案件的Algoritmo Legal的律师RicardoOlivaLeón的说法，足球运动员的认可对于该项目的合法性至关重要。

The project, which was promoted as a digital platform for trading football-themed NFTs and integrating with the metaverse, is said to have begun in late 2021 with the launch of the $SHI token.

据说，该项目被推广为以足球为主题的NFT并与Metaverse集成的数字平台，据说该项目已于2021年底开始，随着$ SHI令牌的推出。

However, investors claim they received no value for their investments, and that Shirtum Europa was allegedly "emptied" of assets.

但是，投资者声称他们没有对自己的投资获得任何价值，据称Europa被“清空”资产。

This case also highlights broader trends in Spanish football, where a ban on gambling ads in La Liga has led clubs and players to forge partnerships with cryptocurrency firms.

此案还强调了西班牙足球的更广泛的趋势，在西甲的​​禁令禁止赌博广告使俱乐部和球员与加密货币公司建立了伙伴关系。

For instance, FC Barcelona has issued its own NFTs and sold a 24.95% stake in Barca Vision to blockchain firm Socios for €100 million.

例如，巴塞罗那足球俱乐部发布了自己的NFT，并以1亿欧元的价格出售了Barca Vision 24.95％的股份。

The Shirtum case underscores the importance of transparency and delivery in such ventures.

实量强调了此类企业中透明度和交付的重要性。

The investigation, which began on June 10, is being overseen by Barcelona’s Court of Instruction No. 5.

该调查始于6月10日，由巴塞罗那的第5号法院监督。

The court will determine if the footballers’ involvement went beyond promotion and if they were aware of the project’s fraudulent nature.

法院将确定足球运动员的参与是否超出了晋升，以及他们是否知道该项目的欺诈性质。

No formal charges have yet been filed against the players, but the case could redefine how celebrity-endorsed crypto projects are viewed and regulated.

尚未针对球员提出正式指控，但此案可以重新定义如何查看和监管名人认可的加密项目。

A Spanish financial regulator, speaking to Reuters, noted, "The case highlights the need for stricter oversight in sports-crypto collaborations."

西班牙金融监管机构与路透社交谈时指出：“此案强调了在体育 - 瑞典合作中对更严格的监督的需求。”

The scandal may also drive calls for enhanced regulations on crypto endorsements, as investors and authorities push for greater transparency in the rapidly evolving cryptocurrency sector.

由于投资者和当局推动快速发展的加密货币行业提高透明度，因此丑闻还可能推动对加密代表的加强法规的呼吁。
