周一,币安(Binance)遭到美国证券交易委员会(Securities and Exchange Commission )起诉后,全球最大的两家加密货币交易平台开始感受到诉讼带来的影响。据Nansen提供的区块链数据显示,自从周一上午币安遭到正式起诉后,币安及其竞争对手Coinbase在24小时内资金净流出或总提取金额与存入资金的差,超过10亿美元。
Nansen的数据显示,币安客户提取的资金约为30亿美元,存入资金只有15.7亿美元,因此资金净流出高达14.3亿美元。而在美国最大的交易平台Coinbase,用户提取资金约26.4亿美元,存入14.6亿美元,相当于净流出11.8亿美元。
币安发言人在一份声明中对《财富》杂志表示:“在这类消息传出后,高于正常水平的资金流出并不意外。现在资金流出似乎已经趋于稳定。”
Coinbase并未立即回复置评请求。但该美国交易平台周二也遭到美国证监会起诉,这可能增加客户提款量。Nansen分析师奥雷利·巴特赫尔和菲利普·格鲁西恩表示:“证监会宣布起诉Coinbase之后,资金流出速度加快。”
虽然两家交易平台均流出了数十亿美元客户存款,但他们的资产负债表远远超过净流出金额。例如,Nansen表示,币安知名的加密货币钱包依旧持有超过540亿美元资金。对于两家交易平台而言,这种在短短几小时内资金大量流出的情况并非没有先例。去年11月,竞争对手FTX破产后,币安一天内流出的资金就超过了30亿美元。
周一,美国证监会向美国哥伦比亚特区地方法院起诉币安及其负责人赵长鹏后,由赵长鹏领导的币安和由布莱恩·阿姆斯特朗领导的Coinbase有数十亿美元资金流出。
美国证监会对币安提出了13项指控,包括币安通过“广泛的欺诈网络”,允许美国高价值客户在该平台上进行交易,尽管它并未向美国客户开放。(币安有一家美国子公司Binance.US)
次日,美国证监会再次提起诉讼,这一次起诉的对象是Coinbase。该上市公司被指控作为经纪商、全国证券交易商和清算机构,并没有取得许可。
Coinbase和币安单独发声明称,计划针对证监会的诉讼进行辩护。币安在周一发表的一篇博客中写道:“我们将积极维护我们的平台。”

Two of the world’s biggest cryptocurrency exchanges are feeling repercussions from the lawsuit filed by the Securities and Exchange Commission against Binance on Monday. According to blockchain data supplied by Nansen, both Binance and its rival Coinbase saw more than $1 billion in negative net outflow—or the difference between total withdrawals and deposits—in the first 24 hours since the lawsuit dropped yesterday morning.
According to Nansen, Binance customers withdrew approximately $3 billion in assets and deposited only $1.57 billion, resulting in a negative net outflow of $1.43 billion. And Coinbase, the largest exchange in the U.S., saw users take out about $2.64 billion and only put in $1.46 billion, which translates to a negative net outflow of $1.18 billion.
“Higher than normal outflows are expected when news like this comes out,” a Binance spokesperson told Fortune in a statement. “Outflows appear to have now stabilized.”
Coinbase did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The U.S. exchange, meanwhile, was itself sued by the SEC on Tuesday, which may have led to additional withdrawals. “Outflows accelerated after the SEC announced charges against Coinbase, too,” according to Nansen analysts Aurelie Barthere and Philip Grushyn.
While both exchanges saw billions in deposits disappear, their balance sheets far exceed their negative net outflows. Binance, for example, still holds over $54 billion across its known wallets, per Nansen. And for both exchanges, large outflows in mere hours is not unprecedented. After FTX, a rival exchange, collapsed in November, Binance saw more than $3 billion leave in just one day.
The billions that have left both Binance, headed by Changpeng Zhao, and Coinbase, led by Brian Armstrong, follow the SEC’s blockbuster lawsuit against Binance and Zhao, filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia on Monday.
The agency levied 13 charges against the company, including allegations that, through “an extensive web of deception,” Binance allowed high-value U.S. customers to trade on the exchange even though it wasn’t open to American customers. (Binance owns Binance.US, a U.S.-based subsidiary.)
The following day, the SEC filed another lawsuit, this time against Coinbase, alleging that the publicly traded company operated as an unlicensed broker, national securities exchange, and clearing agency.
In separate statements, Coinbase and Binance have each said that they plan to challenge the SEC’s litigation. “We intend to defend our platform vigorously,” Binance said in a blog post published Monday.
And Paul Grewal, Coinbase’s chief legal officer, said in a statement to Fortune following the lawsuit: “We’ll continue to operate our business as usual.”
