Coinbase 執行長 Brian Armstrong 向 Elon Musk 領導的總統顧問委員會 (DOGE) 提出想法

Coinbase 執行長布萊恩·阿姆斯壯(Brian Armstrong) 為新成立的總統顧問委員會——由埃隆·馬斯克(Elon Musk) 和維韋克·拉馬斯瓦米(Vivek Ramaswamy) 領導的政府效率部(DOGE) 提出了一個發人深省的想法。

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong has shared his thoughts on the newly formed presidential advisory commission, the Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E.), which is being led by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy.

Coinbase 執行長布萊恩·阿姆斯壯(Brian Armstrong) 分享了他對新成立的總統諮詢委員會政府效率部(DOGE) 的看法，該委員會由埃隆·馬斯克(Elon Musk) 和維韋克·拉馬斯瓦米(Vivek Ramaswamy) 領導。

The initiative, which is part of an effort to cut federal spending, streamline government operations and reduce the national deficit by $2 trillion by July 4, 2024, has been a hot topic in the mass media.

該舉措是削減聯邦支出、簡化政府運作並在 2024 年 7 月 4 日之前將國家赤字減少 2 兆美元的努力的一部分，一直是大眾媒體的熱門話題。

Armstrong suggested that D.O.G.E. could be a great chance to change how the government spends money while making it easier for businesses to grow.

阿姆斯壯表示，DOGE 可能是改變政府花錢方式的絕佳機會，同時讓企業更容易發展。

In particular, he advocated structural reforms that limit how much the government can spend and suggested a constitutional amendment to cap total government spending at a fixed percentage of GDP, around 10% perhaps.

他特別主張進行結構性改革，限制政府支出，並建議修改憲法，將政府總支出限制在 GDP 的固定百分比（也許是 10% 左右）。

Another idea by Armstrong was to make government spending more accountable by using new ways to manage the country's money.

阿姆斯壯的另一個想法是透過使用新的方式來管理國家的資金，使政府支出更加負責任。

One example is a U.S. sovereign wealth fund. This would give every citizen a share, with extra money from the budget shared out as dividends. Armstrong said that this would make people and lawmakers think more carefully about how the government spends money. He also suggested offering bigger stakes to lawmakers to encourage them to support long-term economic growth.

美國主權財富基金就是一個例子。這將使每個公民都有一份份額，預算中的額外資金將作為股息分配。阿姆斯壯表示，這將使人們和立法者更仔細地思考政府如何花錢。他還建議向立法者提供更多股份，以鼓勵他們支持長期經濟成長。

Armstrong's comments came just as the price of the synonymous meme coin rose 12.22% with its market cap reaching $427 million. The project's visibility was boosted by the overlap between its branding and the enthusiasm of the cryptocurrency community.

阿姆斯壯發表此番言論之際，同義迷因幣的價格上漲了 12.22%，市值達到 4.27 億美元。該項目的知名度因其品牌和加密貨幣社群的熱情之間的重疊而得到提升。
