摄氏网络寻求从 Tether 追回数十亿美元的比特币

破产的加密货币贷款机构在一份新的法庭文件中表示，Celsius Network Ltd. 寻求从 USDT 发行人 Tether 及其附属实体追回数十亿美元的比特币。

Celsius Network Ltd. is suing USDT issuer Tether and its affiliated entities to recover billions in Bitcoin, the bankrupt crypto lender said in a new court filing.

破产的加密货币贷款机构在一份新的法庭文件中表示，Celsius Network Ltd. 正在起诉 USDT 发行人 Tether 及其附属实体，以追回数十亿美元的比特币。

The lawsuit alleges that Tether breached its token agreement with Celsius when it applied the company’s property (Bitcoin) held as collateral to pay itself for Celsius’s outstanding loan. Celsius claims this occurred during the ninety days before it filed for bankruptcy on July 13, 2022.

该诉讼称，Tether 使用该公司的财产（比特币）作为抵押品来支付摄氏度的未偿贷款，违反了与摄氏度的代币协议。摄氏声称这发生在其于 2022 年 7 月 13 日申请破产之前的 90 天内。

The Token Agreement

代币协议

Celsius and Tether signed the token agreement in February 2020 to allow the crypto lender to borrow USDT from the company by posting collateral in Ether, Tether Gold, or Bitcoin, according to the complaint.

诉状称，Celsius 和 Tether 于 2020 年 2 月签署了代币协议，允许加密货币贷款机构通过以太坊、Tether Gold 或比特币作为抵押品，从该公司借入 USDT。

The parties amended the agreement in January 2022 and introduced a requirement that mandated Tether to send a notice of a collateral demand to Celsius if the company’s collateral fell below a specified threshold. The agreement provided Celsius ten hours to satisfy the collateral demand.

双方于 2022 年 1 月修订了协议，并引入了一项要求，如果公司的抵押品低于指定阈值，则要求 Tether 向摄氏度发送抵押品需求通知。该协议提供了摄氏度十个小时来满足抵押品需求。

Celsius said it borrowed 512,330,000 USDT from Tether under the amended token agreement and posted 16,505.17 BTC as collateral to secure the loan.

摄氏度表示，根据修订后的代币协议，它从 Tether 借入了 512,330,000 USDT，并提供了 16,505.17 BTC 作为抵押品以确保贷款。

As Bitcoin’s price began to fall in April 22, Tether initiated several demands under the amended token agreement to improve its security on the antecedent debt owed to it by Celsius, the filing states. The crypto lender responded by depositing 16,737.27 Bitcoin as additional collateral, which it alleges was not held in segregated wallets or accounts.

文件称，随着 4 月 22 日比特币价格开始下跌，Tether 根据修订后的代币协议提出了多项要求，以提高其先前由摄氏度所欠债务的安全性。作为回应，加密货币贷方存入了 16,737.27 比特币作为额外抵押品，声称这些抵押品并未存放在独立的钱包或账户中。

While Celsius later borrowed more USDT from Tether and posted respective collaterals in Bitcoin, things went south on June 12, 2022, when Tether issued new demands for additional collateral.

虽然摄氏度后来从 Tether 借入了更多 USDT 并以比特币提供了各自的抵押品，但事情在 2022 年 6 月 12 日出现了问题，当时 Tether 发出了额外抵押品的新要求。

Celsius Seeks $2B Clawback

摄氏寻求 20 亿美元的回补

Celsius claims that Tether sent the first demand late at night (Eastern time) on June 12, which was fulfilled by a transfer of 3,041.73 Bitcoin to the stablecoin issuer the following day. Several hours later, Tether reportedly made a second collateral demand to Celsius and “demanded immediate payment.”

摄氏度声称，Tether 在 6 月 12 日深夜（东部时间）发送了第一笔需求，并在第二天向稳定币发行人转移了 3,041.73 比特币来满足这一需求。据报道，几个小时后，Tether 向摄氏度提出了第二次抵押要求，并“要求立即付款”。

This was contrary to the token agreement the two companies had signed.

这违反了两家公司签署的代币协议。

Tether allegedly applied the entirety of Celsius’s collateral, 39,542.42 Bitcoin, at a dollar value of $816,822,948.

据称，Tether 使用了 Celeste 的全部抵押品：39,542.42 比特币，价值 816,822,948 美元。

The contested Bitcoin is worth over $2 billion at current market prices.

按当前市场价格计算，有争议的比特币价值超过 20 亿美元。
