Ripple 大胆提出暂缓请求

事态发生了重大转折，支付巨头 Ripple Labs 要求暂缓罚款，因为它与支付公司存在长期的法律纠纷。

Payment giant Ripple Labs has requested a stay on the monetary penalties as its prolonged legal dispute with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) continues to unfold.

由于与美国证券交易委员会 (SEC) 的长期法律纠纷仍在继续，支付巨头 Ripple Labs 已请求暂缓罚款。

On Wednesday, the Ripple team filed a request for a stay on the monetary portion, specifically the $125 million fine, of the court's previous judgment. The plea was made in an effort by the company to postpone the financial penalties that the court had imposed pending the outcome of the case over whether or not its XRP token is considered a security on August 7, 2024.

周三，Ripple 团队提出请求，要求暂缓执行法院先前判决中的金钱部分，特别是 1.25 亿美元的罚款。该公司提出这一请求是为了推迟法院在 2024 年 8 月 7 日就其 XRP 代币是否被视为证券的案件结果之前施加的经济处罚。

The request was filed in a letter addressed to the Southern District Court of New York, and the plea comes as the court had previously ordered Ripple to pay the monetary penalties by September 6.

该请求是在致纽约南区法院的一封信中提出的，而法院此前已命令 Ripple 在 9 月 6 日之前支付罚款。

The letter reads:

信中写道：

“Plaintiff, the U.S. SEC, has consented to this request and to the terms of the Proposed Order that Ripple is submitting today. The monetary portion of the judgment is currently due to be paid this coming Friday, September 6, and Ripple respectfully asks that this court act on this stay request before that date.”

“原告美国证券交易委员会已同意这一请求以及 Ripple 今天提交的拟议命令的条款。判决的金钱部分目前应于 9 月 6 日星期五支付，Ripple 谨请法院在此日期之前就该中止请求采取行动。”

Specifically, this move would entail the payment company placing the $125 million fine into an escrow account. Should the regulatory watchdog choose not to appeal the motion, the funds will be released once the deadline has been surpassed.

具体来说，此举将要求支付公司将 1.25 亿美元的罚款存入托管账户。如果监管机构选择不对该动议提出上诉，则一旦超过截止日期，资金将被释放。

However, if the agency decides not to file an appeal, the funds will go to Ripple Labs. Since the SEC approved these terms, the company has insurance under this agreement.

然而，如果该机构决定不提出上诉，资金将流向 Ripple Labs。由于 SEC 批准了这些条款，该公司根据该协议获得了保险。

According to the filing, the stay will be in effect under the proposed order for 30 days following the appeal period's expiration or any appeal decision. As specified in the judgment, the SEC will receive post-judgment interest during this period.

根据备案文件，根据拟议的命令，中止将在上诉期满或做出任何上诉决定后 30 天内有效。根据判决中的规定，美国证券交易委员会将在此期间收到判决后利息。

Furthermore, the fund and any interest that arises from its deposit in the escrow account registered under the name Kellogg Hansen will be owned beneficially by Ripple, with no control over it.

此外，该基金以及以 Kellogg Hansen 名义注册的托管账户中的存款所产生的任何利息将由 Ripple 实益拥有，而无法控制它。

Industry Response To The Motion

业界对该动议的回应

Ripple's motion for stay has sparked a lot of buzz within the community regarding whether the regulatory watchdog will file for an appeal.

Ripple 的暂缓动议在社区内引发了很多关于监管机构是否会提出上诉的讨论。

One prominent figure who has offered his insights into the matter is popular lawyer James A. Murphy, also known as the MetaLawMan. According to the lawyer, the only two options at this time are either the SEC is still unsure or has decided to appeal. However, considering the development, the attorney is confident that the SEC will appeal the motion because Ripple would have been forced to pay the $125 million fine if the Commission opted not to do so.

著名律师詹姆斯·A·墨菲（James A. Murphy）也被称为 MetaLawMan，他对此事提出了自己的见解。该律师表示，目前只有两个选择，要么 SEC 仍不确定，要么决定上诉。然而，考虑到事态的发展，律师有信心 SEC 会对这项动议提出上诉，因为如果 SEC 选择不这样做，Ripple 将被迫支付 1.25 亿美元的罚款。

As the legal battle intensifies, this development represents another turning point in the case that might have long-term effects on the crypto industry.
