When FTX filed for bankruptcy in late 2022, Bitcoin (BTC) prices crashed, dropping to as low as $15,600. However, Solana (SOL) faced the brunt of the market sell-off, falling to as low as $8. At its 2021 peak, SOL coin prices soared to as high as $260.

当 FTX 于 2022 年底申请破产时，比特币 (BTC) 价格暴跌，跌至 15,600 美元。然而，Solana (SOL) 面临市场抛售的冲击，跌至 8 美元。在 2021 年的峰值时，SOL 币价格飙升至 260 美元。

Therefore, the crash to $8 signifies a near 99% sell-off, marking one of the most concerning declines for a coin in the top 10.

因此，暴跌至 8 美元意味着近 99% 的抛售，标志着前 10 名中跌幅最令人担忧的代币之一。

On the bright side, the FTX collapse, which saw people lose their life savings, also marked the end of the 2022 bear run.

好的一面是，FTX 崩溃导致人们失去了毕生积蓄，也标志着 2022 年熊市的结束。

SOL, BTC, and other top altcoins have gradually recovered.

SOL、BTC等顶级山寨币已经逐渐复苏。

Among those arrested was Caroline Ellison, the former CEO of Alameda Research, the venture wing of FTX.

By working closely with investigators, it was possible to indict Sam Bankman-Fried and recover customer assets.

Ellison will now serve 24 months in prison, primarily for her role in the FTX collapse.

Additionally, she will have to forfeit $11 billion.

此外，她还必须损失 110 亿美元。

While this is a win for FTX victims and crypto as a whole, others are concerned that this is a lenient ruling, raising questions about the consequences of white-collar crimes, especially in crypto, where billions are lost every year due to, among others, hacking and scams.

虽然这对 FTX 受害者和整个加密货币来说是一场胜利，但其他人担心这是一项宽松的裁决，引发了对白领犯罪后果的质疑，尤其是在加密货币领域，每年因以下原因损失数十亿美元、黑客攻击和诈骗。

量刑公平吗？

However, for critics, it could have been worse because even after agreeing to charge back in December, her lawyers and the federal Probation Department argued that she shouldn’t be sent to prison.

然而，对于批评者来说，情况可能会更糟，因为即使在 12 月同意提出指控后，她的律师和联邦缓刑部仍认为她不应该被送进监狱。

While making the ruling, Judge Lewis Kaplan acknowledged her crucial help. Still, he saw it fit to send the former Alameda Research executive to prison to deter future crimes.  

在做出裁决时，刘易斯·卡普兰法官承认她的重要帮助。尽管如此，他认为将这位阿拉米达研究公司前高管送进监狱以阻止未来的犯罪是合适的。

Ellison will, therefore, serve her time, but there are far more important questions, especially revolving around how the United States justice system approaches white-collar crimes in crypto.

因此，埃里森将服刑，但还有更重要的问题，特别是围绕美国司法系统如何处理加密白领犯罪的问题。

Billions have been lost through hacks and mismanagement, like in the FTX case.

黑客攻击和管理不善造成了数十亿美元的损失，就像 FTX 案一样。

For this reason, it only serves the DoJ and others to make harsher rulings now that crypto fraud cases, running into billions, cause significant harm to investors, even denting the sphere’s reputation.

因此，既然加密货币欺诈案件已达数十亿美元，对投资者造成重大伤害，甚至损害了该领域的声誉，那么司法部和其他机构做出更严厉的裁决只会有利于司法部和其他机构。
