围绕着虚拟数字货币交易的操纵质疑自交易所诞生起就没有停歇过,而素有“V神”之称的区块链领袖俄裔加拿大人Vitalik Buterin(下称“V神”)在3月3日发布的一条社交信息,再次将数字货币交易所的信任危机推上风口浪尖。
The manipulation surrounding virtual digital currency transactions has not stopped since the start of the exchange, and the Russian Canadian leader Vitalik Buterin, known as “V God”, released a social message on 3 March, once again pushing the crisis of trust in the digital currency exchange.
《华夏时报》记者了解到,在北京时间3月3日,V神在推特转发了一条指控视频并表示,大型数字资产交易所使用用户储蓄基金进行投票,控制Steem公链的投票共识,并称交易所被项目方贿赂。
According to a reporter from the Summer Times, on 3 March Beijing time, V.D. forwarded an allegation video on Twitter, stating that the large digital asset exchange used a user savings fund to vote to control the consensus vote in the Steem public chain and claimed that the exchange had been bribed by the project party.
该推特一经发布,立刻引发了全球范围数字货币交易者的极大关注,而V神的指控也直接将矛头指向了以币安和Poloniex等为代表的大型交易所。与此同时,V神还揭发了币圈波场创始人孙宇晨以行贿交易所的方式,用极低的价格收购了一个名为STEEMIT的区块链项目,并且获得了在交易所平台上的该项目代币。
As soon as the tweets were released, it drew much attention to digital money traders around the world, and V-God’s allegations directly targeted large exchanges, represented by currency security and Poloniex. At the same time, V-God denounced Sun Woo-moo, founder of the ring, who bought a block chain project called STEEMIT at a very low price, and obtained the project’s token on the exchange platform.
交易所操纵投票始末
Exchange manipulation vote ending
“尽管数字货币交易从未被我国金融监管部门认可,但是全球范围内的数字货币交易大佬中却从未缺乏中国人的身影,而中国散户投资人参与数字货币交易更是不可计量,由此产生的诸多操纵黑幕利益纷争更是数不胜数,V神在3日揭发的就是一个典型案例。”3月4日,上海一位资深数字货币研究人士王航向《华夏时报》记者分析指出。
“Although digital currency transactions have never been recognized by our financial regulatory authorities, there has never been a lack of Chinese presence among the world's digital money traders, and the participation of Chinese diaspora investors in digital currency transactions is incalculable, with many of the darker interests resulting from them, as exemplified by the revelations of V God on 3 March.” On 4 March, a senior digital money researcher from Shanghai, Wang, analysed it to a reporter from the Washington Times.
本报记者也从相关渠道获悉,3月2日,币安和Poloniex等交易所对一个名为Steem区块链公链项目进行投票,与此同时这几大交易所的账户被Steemit社区所监控,通过该社区的监控显示汇集超过4200万个该项目的投票权重,其中币安有3170万个,Poloniex有220万个,通过大规模票量操控,让孙宇晨利益相关方占据了公链出块负责人名单前20的位置。
Reporters have also learned from relevant sources that, on 2 March, the Exchanges of Cheyenne and Poloniex voted on a public chain project called the Steem block chain, while the accounts of these major exchanges were monitored by the Community of Steemimit, which has shown that more than 42 million of the projects have voting weights, including 31.7 million in the currency and 2.2 million in the Poloniex, and through large-scale counting controls, the Sun Woo Morning stakeholders have taken up the top 20 positions on the list of public chain leaders.
Steemit社区监控显示,被选出的前20位区块负责人投票支持者数量异常,获得大量投票,但投票人仅为个位数。另外根据Steem白皮书显示,决策需要21位见证人负责创建签核交易区块。此后,孙宇晨承认了操纵行为,并以受到黑客攻击合理化动机,此次事件中心的区块链应用Steemit也受到冲击,在事发24小时内,平台网站工程师、运营负责人等多人在社区公开表示辞职。
According to the Steem White Paper, 21 witnesses are required for decision-making to create signature trading blocks. Sun Woo has since acknowledged manipulation and has been motivated by the rationalization of hacker attacks, and the use of Steemmit in the chain of blocks at the centre of the incident has also been hit. Within 24 hours of the incident, a number of platform website engineers, operators, etc. have publicly resigned from the community.
而根据相关资料显示,Steemit公链是被称为区块链版的Instagram,是币圈知名生活方式分享社区。今年2月14日,Steemit创始人宣布,Steam Inc公司被孙宇晨收购,但是为了抵制项目被波场控制,在同日Steem社区部署了一次软分叉,从公链“分家”并设置新的规则,让孙宇晨方面持有的大量代币投票权失效。
On February 14, the founder of Steemit announced that Steam Inc. had been acquired by Sun Woo-moo, but in order to resist the control of the project, a soft split was deployed in the Steem community on the same day, “separate” from the public chain and new rules were set to invalidate the large number of money votes held by Sun Woo-mun.
值得关注的是,在这次孙宇晨的收购项目过程中,上述几大交易所扮演了关键角色,即通过所持大量票仓单方面阻碍Steemit社区实施软分叉行为,但是让几大交易所以及孙宇晨没有想到的是,这次黑幕操作被Steemit社区监控到,同时Steemit社区还指认几大数字货币交易所竟然是利用储户的资金进行大规模的投票。这导致V神都看不下去,在推特上转发了监控视频,并且认为这是极大的欺诈乃至犯罪行为。
It is a matter of concern that these major exchanges played a key role in the Sun Woo morning acquisition project, by unilaterally blocking the Steemimit community from implementing soft divides by holding large fares, but to the surprise of several exchanges and Sun Woo-moo was that the dark operation was monitored by the Steemimit community, which also identified several major digital money exchanges as large-scale voting using depositor funds. This led to V God’s inability to look down, transmitting surveillance videos on Twitter, which was considered a major fraud and even a criminal act.
孙宇晨与交易所“狼狈为奸”?
"Sun Woo-wook" on the exchange?
“整个事件的来龙去脉其实很清楚,也就是说此前孙宇晨要收购Steemit这个项目,同时还要获得该项目的代币控股权,但是孙宇晨单方面无法操纵这次交易,因此他联合了币安和Poloniex等数字货币交易所以及Poloniex通过大规模投票方式让该笔交易通过,以此获得暴利,但是却以失败而告终。”对此,上海一位资深数字货币投资人夏雨明(化名)对本报记者表示。
“The whole story of the incident was clear, meaning that Sun Woo was going to buy the Steemimit project and acquire a token interest in the project, but Sun Woo was unable unilaterally to manipulate the deal, so he joined the digital currency exchanges such as Money and Poloniex and Poloniex in order to let the deal pass through a large-scale vote, but ended up losing it.” In response, a senior digital money investor in Shanghai said to the journalist.
那么,假如孙宇晨能够顺利收购这个区块链项目,他能够获得多少收益呢?记者查阅公开信息了解到,Steem代币流通量为3.3亿个,虚假投票事件涉及的代币占总量的13%。也就是说,一旦孙宇晨和相关利益方能够获得Steemit公链项目控股权,那么接下来这几方不仅能够操纵该项目的代币价格,还有可能通过“增发”的方式空手套白狼,其攫取的利益简直无法想象。
So, if Sun Woo morning succeeds in buying the block chain project, how much will he gain? Journalists look at the open information and learn that there are 330 million Steem tokens in circulation, and that false voting events involve 13% of the total.
值得关注的是,对于涉事的交易所平台,在3月3日,币安创始人赵长鹏也在推特发布信息“回复”称,不了解事件原委,表示币安或撤回投票,随后否认收取贿赂,但并未直接回应使用用户资产的质疑。
It is a matter of concern that, on 3 March, on the exchange platform involved, the founder of the currency, Zhao Chang Peng, also published a “response” on Twitter, stating that he did not know the circumstances of the incident, said that the currency was safe or withdrew from the vote, and subsequently denied receiving bribes, but did not respond directly to the challenge of using the user's assets.
“币安的官方回应显得太含糊其辞。挪用储户资金进行收购项目投票,本身就是违法行为,幸好在圈内有很多黑客高手,项目方和交易所也不能为所欲为。不过,由于数字货币交易本身就不受监管保护,所以在整个数字货币交易链上,散户都是最弱势的群体。”夏雨明向本报记者指出。
However, since digital currency transactions themselves are not regulated, the diaspora is the most vulnerable group in the entire digital money trading chain.” Summer Rainmin pointed out to reporters in the newspaper

根据公开资料显示,币安交易所成立于2017年7月,在2018年3月遭到日本金融厅警告,后称将总部从日本迁至马耳他。但是近期马耳他金融服务管理局声明,未许可币安在该国经营加密业务。币安交易所公告内容目前以香港时间计,疑撇清与中国大陆的关联,2019年11月,上海央行总部发文排查在沪虚拟货币交易所,币安上海多处办公地点被排查;2019年12月,币安官方微博被封,截止目前,“币安Binance官方”微博号发布交易所消息,联合创始人何一微博至今未解封。
According to public sources, the Exchange was set up in July 2017 and was warned by the Japan Financial Office in March 2018 that it would move its headquarters from Japan to Malta. But recently, the Malta Financial Services Authority stated that it had not licensed the currency to operate encrypted operations in the country.
与此同时,进入2020年,虚拟数字货币交易所丑闻不断,就在半月之前,FCoin交易所出现爆雷。2月17日,FCoin创始人张健发布公告承认,交易所兑付困难,而FCoin背后的北京博晨技术有限公司因涉嫌非法经营罪已于2018年在北京朝阳区派出所被立案。
Meanwhile, in 2020, the virtual digital currency exchange scandal continued, and just half a month ago, the FCoin exchange exploded. On February 17, the founder of Fcoin, Zhang Jian, announced that the exchange was in difficulty and that the Beijing Bo morning Technology Ltd. behind Fcoin had been opened in 2018 at a police station in the Yangtze district of Beijing on suspicion of operating illegally.
