美国司法部周二晚间表示,币安创始人兼前首席执行官赵长鹏应因帮助该加密货币交易所违反联邦制裁和洗钱法而被判处三年监禁。

去年 11 月,他承认违反了《银行保密法》,之后,司法部的律师提交了一份量刑备忘录,认为他应该入狱 36 个月,并缴纳 5000 万美元的罚款。

“本案的判决不仅向赵长鹏发出了一个信息,也向全世界发出了一个信息。赵长鹏因违反美国法律而获得了巨大的回报,这种违法行为的代价必须是巨大的,才能有效惩罚赵长鹏的犯罪行为,并阻止其他试图通过违反美国法律来建立财富和商业帝国的人,”该文件称。

根据认罪协议的条款,赵长鹏最初面临最高 18 个月的监禁。 美国司法部在周二的文件中辩称,“赵长鹏所涉及的不当行为很多,应承担诸多后果”。

“部分原因是赵长鹏未能在币安实施有效的反洗钱计划,非法行为者以各种方式使用币安的交易所,包括运营隐藏加密货币来源和所有权的混合服务;从勒索软件攻击中赚取非法收益;以及转移暗网市场交易、交易所黑客和各种互联网相关骗局的收益,”该文件称,并指出来自暗网市场和加密货币混合器的资金流动。

该文件的大部分内容与司法部去年首次宣布对币安和赵长鹏的指控时提出的论点相呼应,指出了该交易所在美国境内的运作方式。

该文件还详细介绍了司法部的量刑指南计算,指出该指南建议 12 至 18 个月,但表示赵长鹏知道币安违反了法律并鼓励这样做。

该文件还针对《量刑指南》如何处理违反《银行保密法》的问题,称其“并非旨在充分惩罚如此规模的不当行为或损害美国国家安全的不当行为”。

5000万美元的罚款已经得到检方和赵长鹏辩护团队的同意。 赵长鹏还放弃对任何长达 18 个月的刑罚提出上诉的权利。

他原本定于 2 月底被判刑,但经双方同意,听证会将推迟至 4 月 30 日。自从他首次出现在联邦法院以来,他一直无法返回迪拜。

全球最大的加密货币交易所币安与赵长鹏同时认罪,同意接受 43 亿美元的巨额罚款,并将向法院指定的监察员报告。
