The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has issued an order of filing and settling charges against Falcon Labs, Ltd., a Seychelles-based company, for not being a futures commission merchant (FCM) which is a violation of the law.

商品期貨交易委員會 (CFTC) 已發布一項命令，對總部位於塞席爾的 Falcon Labs, Ltd. 提起訴訟並達成和解，指控其不是期貨經紀商 (FCM)，違反了法律規定。

This action is the first time that the CFTC has charged an unregistered FCM for helping people to access digital asset exchanges. The company is now prohibited from carrying out unregistered FCM activities and is to pay huge financial penalties.

這項行動是 CFTC 首次針對幫助人們存取數位資產交易所的未註冊 FCM 進行指控。該公司現已被禁止進行未經註冊的 FCM 活動，並將支付巨額罰款。

Falcon Labs Unregistered Activities and Penalties

Falcon Labs 未註冊的活動和處罰

Falcon Labs was caught in soliciting and accepting orders for digital asset derivatives from U. S. customers between October 2021 and March 2023. Being a middleman, the company allowed customers to trade on different digital asset exchanges without the need to give customer-identifying information by creating main accounts and sub-accounts. Such an arrangement made it possible for Falcon Labs to operate without the mandatory FCM registration.

Falcon Labs 在2021 年10 月至2023 年3 月期間涉嫌向美國客戶招攬和接受數位資產衍生性商品訂單。而無需提供客戶識別資訊。這樣的安排使得 Falcon Labs 無需強制 FCM 註冊即可運作。

Consequently, the CFTC’s order compels Falcon Labs to terminate its unregistered activities and pay financial penalties. As a result, the company is required to pay $1,179,008 in disgorgement and $589,504 in civil monetary penalty.

因此，CFTC 的命令迫使 Falcon Labs 終止其未註冊的活動並支付罰款。因此，該公司需要支付 1,179,008 美元的非法所得和 589,504 美元的民事罰款。

The reduced penalty is due to Falcon Labs’s fully cooperating with the CFTC’s Division of Enforcement. Ian McGinley, the Director of Enforcement, said that the CFTC will maintain market integrity and charge any entities, whether exchanges or intermediaries, that provide unregistered digital asset services.

處罰的減輕是由於 Falcon Labs 與 CFTC 執法部門的充分合作。執法總監 Ian McGinley 表示，CFTC 將維護市場誠信，並向任何提供未註冊數位資產服務的實體（無論是交易所還是中介機構）收取費用。

CFTC Enforcement and Cooperation

CFTC 執法與合作

The CFTC’s enforcement action against Falcon Labs is part of its general policy to regulate the digital asset markets. The Commission’s decision to charge an intermediary is a great step in its continuous struggle to enforce the registration requirements. The CFTC expects that Falcon Labs’ cooperation and remediation will inspire other non-compliant digital asset intermediaries to come forward.

CFTC 針對 Falcon Labs 的執法行動是其監管數位資產市場總體政策的一部分。委員會決定向中介機構收費，這是其不斷努力執行註冊要求的重要一步。 CFTC預計Falcon Labs的合作和整治將激勵其他不合規的數位資產中介機構挺身而出。

From October 2021 to March 2023, Falcon Labs obtained a net fee of $1,179,008 from customers who traded digital asset derivatives. Following the CFTC’s complaint against Binance and other related entities for the same reasons, Falcon Labs voluntarily improved its controls for determining customer locations. This proactive action was taken into account in the reduced monetary penalty.

2021年10月至2023年3月，Falcon Labs從交易數位資產衍生性商品的客戶那裡獲得了1,179,008美元的淨費用。在 CFTC 出於同樣原因對幣安和其他相關實體提出投訴後，Falcon Labs 自願改進了對確定客戶位置的控制。減少罰款考慮了這項主動行動。
