投資人押注川普勝訴將提振加密貨幣市場，比特幣創下歷史新高

全球最大加密貨幣的交易量在 24 小時內飆升 145%，比特幣從週二晚上 7 點到週三凌晨 2 點上漲近 8.5%

Bitcoin soared to a new all-time high on Wednesday as investors bet on President-elect Donald Trump’s victory in the U.S. presidential race to boost the cryptocurrency market.

週三，隨著投資者押注當選總統川普在美國總統競選中獲勝，比特幣飆升至歷史新高，從而提振加密貨幣市場。

The world’s largest cryptocurrency soared nearly 8.5 percent from 7 p.m. Tuesday to 2 a.m. Wednesday, moving almost in lockstep with prospects of a Trump win. The price jumped from around $69,492 at 7 p.m. when polls closed on the East Coast to $74,286 by midnight after it became clear Trump would likely sweep Georgia and North Carolina, narrowing Vice President Kamala Harris’ potential path to the White House.

從週二晚上 7 點到週三凌晨 2 點，全球最大的加密貨幣飆升近 8.5%，幾乎與川普獲勝的前景同步。在川普可能橫掃喬治亞州和北卡羅來納州，縮小副總統卡馬拉·哈里斯入主白宮的潛在路徑之後，價格從晚上7 點東海岸投票結束時的約69,492 美元躍升至午夜的74,286 美元。

Around 1:20 a.m. Wednesday, Bitcoin hit a new all-time high, cresting at $75,395. An hour later, the Associated Press called Pennsylvania for Trump and the president-elect took the stage at a venue in West Palm Beach, Fla., to celebrate with his followers.

週三凌晨 1:20 左右，比特幣創下歷史新高，最高達到 75,395 美元。一小時後，美聯社致電賓州支持川普，當選總統在佛羅裡達州西棕櫚灘的一個場地上台，與他的追隨者一起慶祝。

Other cryptocurrencies also surged on election night, including a 30 percent rally in Dogecoin, the token supported by billionaire Elon Musk, a vocal Trump backer. Ethereum, the second most popular cryptocurrency by trading volume after Bitcoin, also saw a nearly 9 percent jump.

其他加密貨幣也在選舉之夜飆升，包括狗狗幣(Dogecoin) 上漲30%，該代幣得到了億萬富翁埃隆馬斯克(Elon Musk) 的支持，他是川普的直言不諱的支持者。以交易量計算，僅次於比特幣的第二大流行加密貨幣以太坊也出現了近 9% 的成長。

Trump once voiced skepticism about cryptocurrency but firmly repositioned himself in 2024 as the pro-crypto presidential candidate, courting a bloc of single-issue voters and big-ticket donors in the cryptocurrency world.

川普曾對加密貨幣表示懷疑，但在 2024 年堅定地將自己重新定位為支持加密貨幣的總統候選人，以吸引加密貨幣世界中的一群單一議題選民和大額捐助者。

“With Trump winning the presidential election, we don’t expect as many regulatory and legislative headaches,” says Adam Blumberg, co-founder of Interaxis, a firm that provides cryptocurrency and blockchain education for financial advisors.

Interaxis 是一家為財務顧問提供加密貨幣和區塊鏈教育的公司，其聯合創始人Adam Blumberg 表示：「隨著川普贏得總統選舉，我們預計不會出現那麼多令人頭痛的監管和立法問題。

In July, Trump declared that the U.S. should become the “crypto capital of the planet” and the Bitcoin “superpower of the world” at a major cryptocurrency conference in Nashville, Tenn.

7 月，川普在田納西州納許維爾舉行的大型加密貨幣會議上宣布美國應成為「地球加密貨幣之都」和比特幣「世界超級大國」。

Trump also claimed that Bitcoin’s price would soar under his administration.

川普還聲稱，在他的領導下，比特幣的價格將會飆升。

Even the Republican National Committee included cryptocurrency in its official party platform leading up to the election, asserting that Trump would defend the right to mine Bitcoin and “ensure every American has the right to self-custody of their Digital Assets, and transact free from Government Surveillance and Control.”

就連共和黨全國委員會也在選舉前將加密貨幣納入了其官方政黨綱領，聲稱川普將捍衛開採比特幣的權利，並「確保每個美國人都有權自我託管其數位資產，並且不受政府影響進行交易”監控和控制。”

Many crypto enthusiasts believe Trump’s administration will pursue a relaxed approach to regulation for the industry, which now operates under a patchwork of federal laws and restrictions. The president-elect has already vowed to fire the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chair Gary Gensler, who’s been leading the U.S. government’s push to regulate the crypto industry.

許多加密貨幣愛好者認為，川普政府將對該行業採取寬鬆的監管方式，該行業目前在聯邦法律和限制的拼湊下運作。這位當選總統已經發誓要解僱美國證券交易委員會（SEC）主席加里·詹斯勒（Gary Gensler），後者一直領導美國政府推動加密貨幣行業的監管。

“We will likely see regulators appointed that share the pro-crypto sentiment,” says Blumberg. “This means less time and money spent by crypto companies trying to fight the SEC and Treasury Department.”

布隆伯格表示：“我們可能會看到任命的監管機構也支持加密貨幣。” “這意味著加密貨幣公司試圖與美國證券交易委員會和財政部作鬥爭所花費的時間和金錢將會減少。”

If Republicans take control of the U.S. House as they have with the Senate, passing crypto-friendly legislation becomes more likely.

如果共和黨像控制參議院一樣控制美國眾議院，那麼通過加密貨幣友善立法的可能性就更大。

“We could see some crypto and stablecoin legislation pass in the coming 12 months,” says Blumberg.

Blumberg 表示：“我們可能會在未來 12 個月內看到一些加密貨幣和穩定幣立法的通過。”

Leaders in the crypto industry took to social media to celebrate the news.

加密貨幣行業的領導者紛紛在社群媒體上慶祝這一消息。

“Tonight the crypto voter has spoken decisively – across party lines and in key races across the country,” Brian Armstrong, CEO of Coinbase, one of the biggest cryptocurrency exchanges in the world, wrote on X. “We look forward to working with the new Congress.”

全球最大的加密貨幣交易所之一Coinbase 的首席執行官布萊恩·阿姆斯特朗(Brian Armstrong) 在X 上寫道：“今晚，加密貨幣選民在全國範圍內的關鍵競選中，跨越黨派界限，發表了果斷的言論。

But Blumberg notes that cryptocurrency markets will likely stay chaotic in the weeks and months ahead.

但布隆伯格指出，加密貨幣市場在未來幾週和幾個月內可能會保持混亂。

“Investors should still expect volatility,” he says.

「投資者仍應預期波動性，」他表示。
