Bittrex 遭控未註冊非法經營

SEC 在今年 4 月時對成立於 2014 年的老牌交易所 Bittrex 提出多項指控:

  • Bittrex 未註冊活動收入超過 13 億美元

  • 未註冊經營國家證券交易所、經紀商和清算機構

  • Bittrex 和前執行長涉嫌刪除「問題聲明」以規避聯邦證券法

  • 外國子公司 Bittrex Global GmbH 也沒註冊,並與 Bittrex 共享訂單簿

(回顧:美國 SEC 起訴老牌交易所 Bittrex,與海外子公司違規共享訂單)

Bittrex 遭重罰,子公司此前已破產

作為和解的一部分,Bittrex 和 Bittrex Global 已同意支付 2,400 萬美元罰款。這涵蓋:

  • 400 萬美元的判決前利息

  • 560 萬美元的民事罰款

  • 1,440 萬美元非法所得

Today we announced that crypto asset trading platform Bittrex Inc. and its co-founder and former CEO, William Shihara, agreed to settle charges that they operated an unregistered national securities exchange, broker, and clearing agency.

Bittrex 旗下多家子公司在 5 月時已宣告破產,並申請第 11 章破產保護,公司包括:

  • 西雅圖實體 Bittrex, Inc

  • 一家附屬實體 Desolation Holdings LLC

  • 馬耳他兩家 Bittrex Malta Ltd.、Bittrex Malta Holdings Ltd.

Bittrex Inc. 此前表示,申請第 11 章破產保護並不會影響 Bittrex Global,能提供美國以外的用戶正常服務。

而同樣的,相關公司 Bittrex、Shihara、Bittrex Global 在和解協議中皆被永久禁止違反證券交易法相關條例,但這並不影響國際業務範圍。
