CFTC 决定对摄氏度创始人采取行动
2026 年 6 月 18 日
华盛顿——商品期货交易委员会今天宣布，美国纽约南区地方法院签署了一项同意令，解决了 CFTC 在 2023 年针对摄氏度网络有限责任公司创始人兼前首席执行官亚历山大·马辛斯基 (Alexander Mashinsky) 采取的强制执行行动。 [参见 CFTC 新闻稿第 8749-23 号]。该同意令永久禁止马辛斯基进一步违反 CEA 和 CFTC 法规中的某些反欺诈条款，并对他实施永久交易和注册禁令。
2023 年 7 月 13 日，CFTC 向美国纽约南区地方法院提起针对摄氏度和马辛斯基的申诉。投诉称，Celsius 是一个在线平台，Celsius 的客户可以在该平台上汇集他们的数字资产，并部署这些汇集的资产来为摄氏度产生收入，据称这些收入将以每周利息支付或“奖励”的形式返还给客户。
该投诉称，从 2018 年开始，至少持续到 2022 年 6 月，Mashinsky 和摄氏度参与了一项计划，通过谎报摄氏度数字资产金融平台的安全性、盈利能力和监管合规性来欺骗数十万客户。诉状称，Mashinsky 通过公开视频、博客文章、直播以及社交媒体和摄氏度网站上的帖子，将摄氏度吹捧为类似于传统银行的客户数字资产“安全”替代方案，同时向客户承诺为其存款支付高收益利息。
投诉称，为了实现向客户承诺的回报，Celsius 采取了风险越来越大的投资策略，包括提供数百万美元的无抵押贷款和不受监管、风险较大的去中心化金融协议。投诉称，尽管摄氏度继续告诉客户他们的资产是安全的并获得了回报，但它却遭受了毁灭性的损失。事实上，客户资金根本不安全，Celsius 最终申请破产。总体而言，Celsius 获得的资金总额约为 200 亿美元。 2023 年 7 月 17 日，法院对摄氏度下达了永久禁令同意令，马辛斯基成为唯一剩下的被告。
2023 年 7 月 11 日，美国纽约南区检察官办公室对 Mashinsky 提起了一项平行刑事诉讼，指控其行为与 CFTC 诉讼中的相同行为有关。 USA 诉 Alexander Mashinsky，编号 1:23-cr-00347-JGK（纽约州纽约市，2023 年 7 月 11 日）。 2024 年 12 月 3 日，马辛斯基承认一项商品欺诈罪和一项证券欺诈罪。 2025 年 5 月 8 日，马辛斯基因在摄氏度进行商品欺诈和证券欺诈而被判处 12 年监禁，并被责令支付 50,000 美元罚款和没收 48,393,446 美元。

CFTC Resolves Action Against Celsius Founder
June 18, 2026
WASHINGTON — The Commodity Futures Trading Commission today announced the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York entered a consent order that resolves the CFTC’s 2023 enforcement action against Alexander Mashinsky , the founder and former CEO of Celsius Network LLC. [See CFTC Press Release No. 8749-23 ]. The consent order permanently enjoins Mashinsky from further violations of certain anti-fraud provisions in the CEA and CFTC regulations and imposes permanent trading and registration bans against him.
On July 13, 2023, the CFTC filed a complaint against Celsius and Mashinsky in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The complaint alleged Celsius was an online platform on which Celsius’ customers would allow Celsius to pool their digital assets and deploy these pooled assets to generate revenue for Celsius, which purportedly would be returned to the customers in the form of weekly interest payments or ‘rewards’.
The complaint alleged that beginning in 2018 and continuing through at least June 2022, Mashinsky and Celsius engaged in a scheme to defraud hundreds of thousands of customers by mispresenting the safety, profitability, and regulatory compliance of Celsius’ digital asset-based finance platform. The complaint alleged Mashinsky, via publicly available videos, blog posts, livestreams and postings on social media and the Celsius website, touted Celsius as a “safe” alternative akin to a traditional bank for customers’ digital assets while simultaneously promising customers high yield interest payments on their deposits.
The complaint alleged, to meet the returns promised to its customers, Celsius engaged in increasingly risky investment strategies, including extending millions of dollars in uncollateralized loans and unregulated, risky decentralized finance agreements. The complaint alleged, while continuing to tell its customers their assets were safe and earning rewards, Celsius suffered devasting losses. In fact, customer funds were not at all secure and Celsius eventually filed for bankruptcy. In total, Celsius received funds totaling approximately $20 billion in value. On July 17, 2023, the court entered a consent order of permanent injunction against Celsius, leaving Mashinsky as the only remaining defendant.
On July 11, 2023, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York filed a parallel criminal action against Mashinsky in connection with the same conduct at issue in the CFTC’s action. USA v. Alexander Mashinsky , No. 1:23-cr-00347-JGK (S.D.N.Y. July 11, 2023). On Dec. 3, 2024, Mashinsky pled guilty to one count of commodities fraud and one count of securities fraud. On May 8, 2025, Mashinsky was sentenced to 12 years in prison and ordered to pay a $50,000 fine and forfeiture of $48,393,446 for committing commodities fraud and securities fraud at Celsius.
