當美聯儲椅子涉及加密法規時，比特幣跳躍

最大的數字資產截至週四（1月30日）在新加坡上午10點，大約104,300美元易手，比美國當天的攀升為3.5％。

Bitcoin price rose sharply on Thursday after US Federal Reserve chair Jerome Powell briefly touched upon crypto regulation in his comments following the central bank’s latest interest-rate decision.

在中央銀行最新的利率決定之後，美國美聯儲主席杰羅姆·鮑威爾（Jerome Powell）在他的評論中短暫涉及加密法規後，比特幣的價格在周四急劇上漲。

The world’s largest digital asset was last changing hands at about US$104,300 as at 10 am on Thursday (Jan 30) in Singapore. This marks a climb of 3.5 per cent from the US day. Smaller tokens such as Ether and XRP traded in relatively narrow ranges.

Powell in his customary briefing after Fed officials on Wednesday paused monetary easing signalled that the central bank will need to see more progress on inflation before considering any further reduction in interest rates.

鮑威爾（Powell）在周三的美聯儲官員暫停後，鮑威爾（Powell）在他的習慣通報中表明，中央銀行將需要在通貨膨脹率上看到更多的進展，然後再考慮進一步降低利率。

In response to a question about risks from digital assets, Powell said that banks are “perfectly able to serve crypto customers as long as they understand and can manage the risks” and added that “a greater regulatory apparatus around crypto” from Congress will be “very constructive”.

鮑威爾（Powell）回答有關數字資產風險的問題，鮑威爾（Powell）表示，只要他們理解並可以管理風險，銀行就可以為加密貨幣客戶提供服務”，並補充說，國會的“圍繞加密貨幣的更大監管機構”將是“非常建設性”。

The comments were staid and measured but come against a backdrop of heightened investor expectations for friendly digital-asset regulations under President Donald Trump, who has tightly embraced the crypto sector.

“Traders in the US were reacting to the crypto comments from Powell, and Bitcoin pushed higher,” said IG Australia Pty Market Analyst Tony Sycamore. “From a wider technical perspective, there are indications that the Bitcoin rally is maturing.”

IG澳大利亞PTY市場分析師Tony Sycamore說：“美國的貿易商對鮑威爾的加密評論做出了反應，比特幣提高了。” “從更廣泛的技術角度來看，有跡象表明比特幣集會正在成熟。”

Bitcoin hit a record high of US$109,241 ahead of Trump’s inauguration on Jan 20 but subsequently slipped back. The token is up over 50 per cent since his election victory in early November, leading some to ask if the rally is due a breather.

比特幣在1月20日的特朗普就職典禮之前達到了109,241美元的創紀錄，但隨後退縮。自11月初選舉勝利以來，該令牌上漲了50％以上，導致一些人詢問拉力賽是否應得的喘息。

Others argue that widening US engagement with crypto portends further gains. Some of the latest developments include CME Group’s move to roll out futures products on Robinhood Markets’s app, including for Bitcoin and Ether.

其他人則認為，擴大我們與加密貨幣的互動預示了進一步的收益。一些最新的發展包括CME Group在Robinhood Markets應用程序上推出期貨產品的舉動，包括Bit Coin和Ether。

Investment firms are also peppering the Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) with proposals to start more crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs). The companies are “probing the SEC’s boundaries, with unique filings including memecoin ETFs”, Bloomberg Intelligence senior government analyst Nathan Dean wrote in a note.

投資公司還在為證券交易委員會（SEC）提供了提案，以開始更多的加密交易所資金（ETFS）。彭博情報高級政府分析師內森·迪恩（Nathan Dean）在一份票據中寫道，兩家公司正在“探索SEC的邊界，包括Memecoin ETF在內的獨特文件”。
