中國基金在比特幣熱潮中大力宣傳加密貨幣以吸引投資者

中國金融科技巨頭螞蟻集團的手機錢包應用程式支付寶上發現了一條基金廣告，上面寫著“加密貨幣飆升，10元開始投資”

A Chinese fund manager is highlighting its fund’s cryptocurrency exposure in an attempt to attract investors, even as Beijing maintains a hostile stance towards the digital assets.

儘管北京方面對數位資產保持敵對立場，但一家中國基金經理人仍強調其基金的加密貨幣敞口，以吸引投資者。

An advertisement for the fund, which read “Cryptocurrencies soaring, start investing with 10 yuan”, was spotted on Alipay, Chinese fintech giant Ant Group’s mobile wallet app, on Thursday, according to crypto-focused outlet Wu Blockchain.

根據專注於加密貨幣的媒體 Wu Blockchain 報道，週四，中國金融科技巨頭螞蟻集團的行動錢包應用程式支付寶上出現了該基金的廣告，上面寫著「加密貨幣飆升，開始投資 10 元」。

The fund, a Qualified Domestic Institutional Investor (QDII) product operated by Shanghai-based Hwabao WP Fund Management, boasted in the ad that it is heavily invested in Coinbase, a US cryptocurrency exchange that is listed in New York, and the ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF offered by US asset manager Ark Invest.

該基金是上海華寶基金管理有限公司營運的合格境內機構投資者（QDII）產品，在廣告中誇口稱其大量投資於在紐約上市的美國加密貨幣交易所Coinbase和ARK 21Shares Bitcoin美國資產管理公司Ark Invest提供的ETF。

QDII products, which allow qualified institutional investors to acquire overseas securities, have been one of the few avenues where individual mainland Chinese investors can access offshore equities.

QDII產品允許合格的機構投資者購買海外證券，是中國內地個人投資者獲得離岸股票的少數管道之一。

The top holdings of the QDII fund Hwabao marketed on Alipay also include Ark Invest’s ARK Innovation ETF and ARK Fintech innovation ETF, both of which count Coinbase among their top holdings.

在支付寶上市的 QDII 基金華寶的重倉還包括 Ark Invest 的 ARK Innovation ETF 和 ARK Fintech Innovation ETF，這兩家基金都將 Coinbase 列為重倉。

“The fund is issued by Hwabao WP Fund and advertised through its account on the Ant Fortune page,” said a spokesperson at Ant Fortune, Ant Group’s wealth management platform.

螞蟻集團旗下財富管理平台螞蟻財富發言人表示：“該基金由華寶WP基金發行，並透過螞蟻財富頁面的帳戶進行宣傳。”

The QDII fund is available for sale across multiple platforms, the Ant spokesperson added.

螞蟻金服發言人補充說，QDII 基金可在多個平台上銷售。

Hwabao WP Fund Management did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

華寶基金管理公司沒有立即回應置評請求。

Ant is the fintech affiliate of Alibaba Group Holding, which owns the South China Morning Post.

螞蟻金服是阿里巴巴集團控股公司的金融科技子公司，阿里巴巴集團控股公司擁有《南華早報》。

The fund’s marketing move reflects mainland Chinese investors’ persistent appetite for cryptocurrencies in spite of the government’s crackdown on the sector, especially as bitcoin’s price reaches new heights.

該基金的營銷舉措反映了中國大陸投資者對加密貨幣的持續興趣，儘管政府對該行業進行了打擊，特別是在比特幣價格達到新高的情況下。

Bitcoin prices surged in the lead up to the US presidential election, after Republican nominee and now president-elect Donald Trump promised to boost the industry. The world’s largest crypto token broke US$100,000 for the first time last week, after Trump selected crypto proponent Paul Atkins to head the US Securities and Exchange Commission.

在共和黨候選人、現任當選總統川普承諾推動該產業發展後，比特幣價格在美國總統大選前夕飆升。在川普選擇加密貨幣支持者保羅阿特金斯擔任美國證券交易委員會主席後，全球最大的加密貨幣代幣上週首次突破 10 萬美元。

While more experts in China have voiced concerns recently about the country’s long-held conservative stance towards crypto, Beijing has given no indication that it would relax its scrutiny of the sector.

儘管最近有更多中國專家對該國長期以來對加密貨幣採取的保守立場表示擔憂，但北京方面並未表示將放鬆對該行業的審查。

Local courts over the years have clarified that individual ownership of cryptocurrencies is protected as property, but Beijing still sees the digital asset as a threat to financial stability.

多年來，地方法院已澄清，個人對加密貨幣的所有權作為財產受到保護，但北京仍將數位資產視為對金融穩定的威脅。

The country first banned initial coin offerings and ordered crypto exchanges to shut down in 2017. It ramped up its clampdown in 2021, when it banned bitcoin mining and declared crypto-related businesses illegal.

該國於 2017 年首次禁止首次代幣發行，並下令關閉加密貨幣交易所。
