美国区块链取证公司 Chainalysis 与 TRM Labs 围绕一份联邦合同的争夺,已进入法院程序。Chainalysis 旗下政府业务部门认为,美国移民与海关执法局(ICE)在未公开招标的情况下,将一份约 9460 万美元的合同直接授予 TRM Labs,做法缺乏合理依据。

合同金额约9460万美元

这起案件于 7 月 27 日提交至美国联邦索赔法院。争议合同期限为一年,从 2026 年 7 月 1 日持续至 2027 年 6 月 30 日,内容包括区块链取证软件及配套支持服务,服务对象为国土安全任务组的调查工作。

相关工作覆盖诈骗、网络犯罪和性勒索等案件。按披露信息,这份合同的核心用途是为执法调查提供链上追踪和分析能力。

Chainalysis质疑单一来源授标

Chainalysis 认为,ICE 以单一来源方式授标给 TRM Labs 的决定“武断且不合理”。该公司称,在机构释放将向单一供应商采购的信号后,自己已提交能力说明文件,表明具备承接相关工作的能力。

不过,Chainalysis 诉状中的核心论点目前仍未公开。法院已在 7 月 31 日批准其申请,允许部分内容暂时密封,理由是其中涉及保密商业信息和商业机密。

ICE称仅TRM符合要求

TRM Labs 已于 7 月 28 日以被告介入方身份加入案件,与美国政府一同为这次授标辩护。法官 Stephen Schwartz 已将口头辩论排期至 9 月 2 日,并采用加速审理安排。美国政府则请求法院在 9 月 10 日前作出裁决。

  • 合同金额约为 9460 万美元
  • 合同执行期为 1 年
  • 口头辩论定于 9 月 2 日

根据 ICE 提交的授标说明,机构曾进行约 6 天的市场调研窗口,共收到 8 家公司回应,其中 4 家为小型企业。ICE 最终认定,这些回应方均无法满足其能力要求,因此只有 TRM Labs 符合条件。

这场诉讼也反映出,美国联邦执法合同正成为区块链情报公司的重要业务来源。Chainalysis 早年已向美国国税局和空军等机构提供追踪工具,TRM Labs 近年也持续扩大政府业务,并曾从 ICE 获得规模较小的单一来源合同。

补充信息:此次案件属于投标抗议,焦点在于采购决定是否合法,并不等同于对中标方存在不当行为的指控。
