两名Robinhood工程师因涉嫌利用机密信息交易加密货币被起诉
美国司法部对两名Robinhood工程师提起指控,涉嫌参与一起涉及公司机密信息的加密货币交易计划。据美国司法部表示,柴赫福(Hefu Chai)和项怀松(Huaisong Xiang) allegedly 利用来自Robinhood的非公开信息,在Hyperliquid平台上交易加密货币永续合约。
基于机密数据的交易行为
根据纽约南区联邦法院未解封的起诉书显示,柴赫福和项怀松能够接触到关于Robinhood Crypto即将上线的新加密货币列表的内部信息。检方指控,二人在这些代币正式上线并向公众公布之前,便利用该信息进行交易。
据报道,这两名工程师购买了与Robinhood准备上线的代币挂钩的永续合约,并在Robinhood正式公布列表前于Hyperliquid平台进行交易。美国司法部指出,两人在2025年至2026年期间反复实施此类操作。每位被告据称通过这些交易获利超过5万美元。
目前,柴赫福和项怀松均被控商品欺诈罪和电汇欺诈罪。商品欺诈罪最高可判处10年监禁,而电汇欺诈罪最高可判处20年监禁。
Chai Hefu, 36, is from Menlo Park, California, and Xiang Huaisong, 30, is from Jersey City, New Jersey. Chai Hefu will appear in federal court for the Northern District of California, while Xiang Huaisong is scheduled to appear in a federal magistrate judge in New Jersey.
U.S. Attorney Jamie McDonald said: "It is illegal to misappropriate confidential information to seek personal gain in the derivatives market. This is exactly the accusation we have made against Chai Hefu and Xiang Huaisong. Today's indictment makes clear that company insiders cannot circumvent securities and commodity laws by abusing illicitly obtained information in derivative transactions such as perpetual contracts, tokenized securities, or other similar financial instruments."
Jane Street's huge exit has once again attracted attention
This accusation has also put another similar high-profile case back into the public eye. Earlier this year, Wall Street's leading trading firm Jane Street Group faced charges for alleged trading activities during the May 2022 TerraUSD (UST) crash. Prosecutors in New York accused the company of communicating with insiders at UST publisher Terraform Labs through a private Telegram channel.
Prosecutors claimed that this contact allowed Jane Street to learn in advance about stablecoin related developments. Subsequently, the company was accused of selling approximately $192 million worth of UST before the UST token crash.
