Bitwise 資訊長 Matt Hougan 預測，如果美國建立國家儲備，比特幣價格可能會達到 50 萬美元

美國最大加密貨幣基金管理公司的資訊長預測，建立比特幣國家儲備可能會使加密貨幣的價格飆升至 50 萬美元。

The chief investment officer of the largest crypto fund manager in the US has predicted that the price of bitcoin could reach as high as $500,000 if the country creates a national bitcoin reserve.

美國最大加密基金管理公司的首席投資長預測，如果該國建立國家比特幣儲備，比特幣的價格可能高達 50 萬美元。

Matt Hougan, of Bitwise Asset Management, said he saw bitcoin potentially hitting $500,000 if the US makes a national bitcoin reserve, which would mark a 380% increase from the coin's current price. Hougan told Yahoo! Finance that he believes the US buying bitcoin will drive more countries to purchase the crypto themselves.

Bitwise 資產管理公司的 Matt Hougan 表示，如果美國建立國家比特幣儲備，他預計比特幣價格可能會達到 50 萬美元，這將比目前比特幣價格上漲 380%。霍根告訴雅虎！他相信美國購買比特幣將推動更多國家自行購買加密貨幣。

"If we do get a bitcoin strategic reserve where the government is buying bitcoin … $200,000 bitcoin is going to be looking quaint. You're going to be looking at $300,000, $400,000, $500,000 bitcoin. It's just too big a story, because governments all around the world are going to have to do it," Hougan said.

「如果我們確實建立了比特幣戰略儲備，政府正在購買比特幣……20萬美元的比特幣看起來會很奇怪。你會看到30萬美元、40萬美元、50萬美元的比特幣。這太大了，因為政府都世界各地都必須這樣做，」侯根說。

Hougan said that he was skeptical when Trump first proposed the idea of creating a national bitcoin stockpile while on the campaign trail. However, he said the idea "hasn't gone away," and pointed to a new crypto bill proposed by Wyoming Senator Cynthia Lummis, and more members of Trump's administration saying they were open to the idea of a strategic bitcoin reserve. Trump also hinted at the reserve again last week in an interview at the New York Stock Exchange.

霍根表示，當川普在競選期間首次提出建立國家比特幣儲備的想法時，他對此表示懷疑。然而，他表示這個想法“並沒有消失”，並指出了懷俄明州參議員辛西婭·盧米斯提出的一項新的加密法案，川普政府的更多成員表示他們對戰略比特幣儲備的想法持開放態度。川普上週在紐約證券交易所接受採訪時也再次暗示了儲備金。

"I still think, you know, maybe it's less than a 50% chance, but it's not zero," he added. "And again, if it happens, or if we start to see it happen in other countries, you're going to see a rip-up in bitcoin that will make 2024 look pretty docile in comparison.

「我仍然認為，你知道，也許這個可能性不到 50%，但它不是零，」他補充道。 「再說一次，如果這種情況發生，或者如果我們開始看到這種情況在其他國家發生，你會看到比特幣價格的上漲，相比之下，2024 年看起來相當溫順。

Bitcoin has rallied 55% since the presidential election, and more than 140% this year.

自總統大選以來，比特幣已上漲 55%，今年更是上漲了 140% 以上。

Hougan also said, separately from his outlook related to a bitcoin strategic reserve, that he saw bitcoin climbing to $200,000 over the next year as investor demand continues to rise.

Hougan 還表示，除了他對比特幣戰略儲備的展望之外，他預計隨著投資者需求的持續增長，比特幣將在明年攀升至 20 萬美元。

He saw three "irrepressible" sources of demand for bitcoin, pointing to ETFs, Microstrategy, and governments potentially becoming bitcoin buyers themselves.

他看到了比特幣需求的三個「不可抑制」來源，指出 ETF、Microstrategy 和政府本身有可能成為比特幣買家。

"At the end of the day it comes down to supply and demand. There's too much demand, not enough supply, so I think the price goes higher in 2025," he added.

「歸根結底，這取決於供應和需求。需求太多，供應不足，所以我認為 2025 年價格會更高，」他補充道。

Wall Street is growing increasingly bullish on crypto, especially with Trump's second term in sight. Standard Chartered, the firm that correctly predicted bitcoin's climb to $100,000 this year, is also calling for bitcoin to hit $200,000 by the end of 2025, while other bullish forecasts have the token rising as high as $500,000.

華爾街對加密貨幣越來越看好，尤其是在川普第二任期臨近的情況下。渣打銀行是一家正確預測比特幣今年將攀升至 10 萬美元的公司，該公司還呼籲比特幣到 2025 年底將達到 20 萬美元，而其他樂觀預測則認為該代幣將上漲至 50 萬美元。
