Grayscale Investments Shares Update Regarding Grayscale Filecoin Trust Registration Statement on Form 10
STAMFORD, Conn., May 17, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Grayscale Investments, the world's largest digital currency asset manager and sponsor of Grayscale Filecoin Trust (FIL) (OTCQB: FILG) (the "Trust"), today shared an update about the status of the Trust's Registration Statement on Form 10. Grayscale filed the registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on April 14, 2023, to register shares of the Trust pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
康涅狄格州斯坦福德，2023 年 5 月 17 日（GLOBE NEWSWIRE）— 灰度投资，全球最大的数字货币资产管理公司和 Grayscale Filecoin Trust (FIL) 的赞助商 (OTCQB: FILG）（“信托”），今天在表格10上分享了信托注册声明的最新状态。Grayscale 于 2023 年 4 月 14 日向美国证券交易委员会 (SEC) 提交了注册声明，要求根据 1934 年《证券交易法》第 12 (g) 条注册信托股份。
On May 16, 2023, Grayscale received a comment letter from the SEC staff stating its view that the Trust's underlying asset, FIL, meets the definition of a security under the federal securities laws, and that therefore the Trust appears to meet the definition of an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The SEC staff requested that Grayscale seek withdrawal of the registration statement promptly.
2023 年 5 月 16 日，Grayscale 收到美国证券交易委员会工作人员的评论信，表示其认为该信托的标的资产 FIL 符合联邦证券法对证券的定义，因此该信托似乎符合 1940 年《投资公司法》对投资公司的定义。美国证券交易委员会的工作人员要求 Grayscale 立即寻求撤回注册声明。
Grayscale does not believe that FIL is a security under the federal securities laws and intends to respond promptly to the SEC staff with an explanation of the legal basis for Grayscale's position. Grayscale cannot predict whether the SEC staff will be persuaded that Grayscale's position is correct, and if not, whether it may become necessary for Grayscale to seek accommodations that would enable the Trust to register under the Investment Company Act of 1940 or, alternatively, seek dissolution of the Trust.
Grayscale 不认为 FIL 是联邦证券法规定的证券，并打算立即回应美国证券交易委员会的工作人员，解释 Grayscale 立场的法律依据。Grayscale无法预测美国证券交易委员会的工作人员是否会被说服相信Grayscale的立场是正确的，如果不是，Grayscale是否有必要寻求便利，使信托能够根据1940年的《投资公司法》进行注册，或者寻求解散信托。
