Exploiter Avraham "Avi" Eisenberg, who drained decentralized finance protocol Mango Markets of $110 million in 2022, was sentenced to 52 months in prison on Thursday on his guilty plea to possession of child sexual exploitation material, not for his conviction on the crypto theft.

剥削者阿夫拉汉姆·艾森伯格（Avraham“ Avi” Eisenberg）在2022年排入分散的金融方案芒果市场（1.1亿美元），周四因对拥有儿童性剥削材料的认罪而被判处52个月徒刑，而不是因为他对加密货币盗窃的定罪而被判处。

The sentencing comes a year after a New York jury found Eisenberg guilty of wire fraud, commodities fraud and commodities manipulation for his Mango Markets stunt, and a year after he separately pleaded guilty to the possession of child sexual abuse material (CSAM), which was found on his devices after his arrest.

判决是在纽约陪审团裁定艾森伯格（Eisenberg）犯有电汇欺诈，商品欺诈和商品操纵的芒果市场特技中的一年之后的一年。

Defense attorneys moved for either a new trial or an acquittal on the Mango Markets-related charges last year, claiming that the Department of Justice pursued the case in the wrong venue (the Southern District of New York), that the government hadn't properly proved that the MNGO Perpetual was a "swap," that Eisenberg intended to manipulate the MNGO Perpetual's price and that his "alleged deceptions ... were immaterial."

In a hearing in Manhattan on Thursday, Judge Arun Subramanian said he would sentence Eisenberg to more than four years in prison at FCI Otisville, a medium-security facility about two hours' drive from Manhattan, but that there was a "non-zero chance I will grant that motion" related to the Mango Markets-related charges.

阿伦·苏巴拉曼尼亚（Arun Subramanian）法官在周四在曼哈顿举行的一次听证会上说，他将在FCI Otisville判处艾森伯格（Eisenberg）判处四年多的监禁，这是一个中型安全设施，距曼哈顿大约有两个小时的车程，但“有一个非零的机会，我会给货币市场的动议“与货币市场相关，”

The bulk of any sentence would be related to the CSAM charge anyway, the judge said.

法官说，任何句子的大部分都将与CSAM指控有关。

"I think that in this specific area, general deterrence has more weight ... the only way to try to stem the tide of the distribution of this material" is through a prison sentence, the judge said, before reading three witness statements.

法官说：“我认为，在这个特定领域，普遍的威慑力量更大……试图阻止该材料分布的潮流的唯一方法是通过徒刑。”

The judge also said he acknowledged to Eisenberg's effort to better understand the impact of his crime, but that a prison sentence was still necessary. Eisenberg is sentenced to five years of probation with strict rules after he is released from prison, the judge said, but will have to install monitoring software on all of his electronic devices and go through a drug outpatient program.

法官还说，他承认艾森伯格为更好地理解犯罪的影响而努力，但仍然有必要徒刑。法官说，艾森伯格（Eisenberg）被释放出狱后被判处五年缓刑，并严格规定，但必须在其所有电子设备上安装监视软件，并通过毒品门诊计划。

In their sentencing submission to the court, prosecutors asked for Eisenberg to serve between 6.5 and 8 years in prison, stressing the seriousness of his offenses.

检察官在向法院提交判刑时，要求艾森伯格服刑6.5至8年，强调他的罪行的严重性。

Though Eisenberg has maintained that his crypto trading actions on Mango Markets were “compliant” with the protocol and thus didn’t break the law (an argument a jury clearly did not buy), prosecutors say Eisenberg was well aware that what he was doing was a crime. Before his Mango Markets heist, he’d filed suit against someone else for crypto-related market manipulation, and fled the country for Israel once his identity as the attacker was unveiled.

尽管艾森伯格坚持认为，他对芒果市场的加密货币贸易行为“符合协议”，因此没有违反法律（陪审团显然没有购买的论点），但检察官说，艾森伯格很清楚他在做的是犯罪。在他的芒果市场抢劫案之前，他就与加密相关的市场操纵提起诉讼，一旦他的身份被揭露，他就逃离了以色列的国家。

I believe all of our actions were legal open market actions, using the protocol as designed, even if the development team did not fully anticipate the consequences of setting parameters the way they are.

我相信，即使开发团队没有完全预测其以其方式设置参数的后果，我们的所有行动都是使用协议所设计的法律公开市场行动。

Prosecutors also detailed Eisenberg’s child sexual abuse material charges, telling the judge that between 2017 and 2022, he downloaded 1,274 sexually-explicit images and videos of children — including toddlers and two-month-old infants — as well as “depictions of sadistic violence and masochism against children.”

检察官还详细介绍了艾森伯格的儿童性虐待重大指控，告诉法官，在2017年至2022年之间，他下载了1,274张性宣传的图像和儿童的视频，包括幼儿和两个月的婴儿，以及“对儿童的虐待狂暴力和对儿童的虐待性暴力和受虐狂的描述”。

In their own sentencing submission to the court, Eisenberg and his lawyers attempted to blame his strict religious upbringing and his lifelong “struggles to conform to social norms” for his crimes, calling him a “fundamentally decent person” and detailing his challenges adapting to the “daily horrors” of life in jail.

艾森伯格（Eisenberg）和他的律师在向法院提交宣判，试图责备他严格的宗教抚养和终生为自己的罪行而“努力遵守社会规范”，称他为“根本上是体面的人”，并详细介绍了他适应“每日恐怖”生命中的挑战。
