在美國建立了“戰略比特幣儲備”，這進一步證明了唐納德·特朗普總統對加密貨幣部門的支持。

President Donald Trump is putting the finishing touches on a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, which will be funded by nearly 200,000 bitcoins seized by the US in civil and criminal cases, and will be locked away for an indefinite time, it can be revealed.

唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）總統正在對戰略性比特幣保護區進行最後的修飾，這將由美國民事和刑事案件中抓住的近20萬比特幣資助，並將無限期地鎖定，這可以透露。

The move comes as Trump prepares to leave office and is further proof of the president’s support for the cryptocurrency sector.

此舉是因為特朗普準備離開任職，並進一步證明了總統對加密貨幣部門的支持。

Earlier this month, Trump signed an executive order establishing the reserve, which White House crypto chief David Sacks has likened to “a digital Fort Knox”, comparing it to the stockpiling of gold bars at the US military base.

本月早些時候，特朗普簽署了一項行政命令，建立了該保護區，白宮加密貨幣負責人戴維·薩克斯（David Sacks）將其比作“數字諾克斯”，將其與美國軍事基地的金條庫存進行了比較。

Gold is held in reserves by countries worldwide as the metal is seen as a safe-haven asset, protecting against financial instability such as high inflation.

黃金在全球範圍內的儲備中持有，因為金屬被視為避風港資產，可防止金融不穩定，例如高通貨膨脹。

The metal on Friday surpassed $3,000 per ounce for the first time, being pushed by an uncertain economic outlook amid Trump’s tariffs and a strong dollar.

週五的金屬首次超過每盎司3,000美元，在特朗普的關稅和強勁的美元中，經濟前景不確定。

Gold reserves can help stabilise a country’s currency, while bars are used as collateral for loans and transactions.

黃金儲備可以幫助穩定一個國家的貨幣，而酒吧則用作貸款和交易的抵押品。

How will US bitcoin reserve work?

我們比特幣儲備將如何工作？

The bitcoin reserve is to be funded by about 200,000 bitcoins, worth around $17 billion in total, that have been seized in the US as a result of civil and criminal cases.

比特幣儲備應由約200,000比特幣資助，總價值約為170億美元，這是由於民事和刑事案件在美國占領的。

The reserve will be virtually secured for an indefinite time.

儲備實際上將無限期地固定。

Additional bitcoin can be added to the reserve as long as such action is “budget-neutral”, thus not costing the taxpayer.

只要此類行動是“預算中立”，就可以將其他比特幣添加到儲備金中，從而不會使納稅人付出代價。

Announced at 12:00GMT.

在12：00gmt宣布。

Its purpose is to accrue any bitcoin seized in legal cases by the US government and place it in an account that will be virtually secured for an indefinite time.

它的目的是累積美國政府在法律案件中抓住的任何比特幣，並將其置於無限期的賬戶中。

The reserve will be funded by about 200,000 bitcoins, which were seized in the US as a result of civil and criminal cases.

該儲備將由約200,000比特幣資助，這是民事和刑事案件在美國扣押的。

The coins will be valued at around $17 billion.

硬幣的價值約為170億美元。

Additional bitcoin can be added to the reserve as long as such action is “budget-neutral”, which means no taxpayer dollars will be spent to buy more coins.

只要這樣的行動是“預算中立”，就可以將其他比特幣添加到預備役中，這意味著不會花任何納稅人的錢來購買更多硬幣。

However, any bitcoin that is lost through a hack or other illicit activity will be replaced by the government.

但是，通過黑客或其他非法活動丟失的任何比特幣將由政府取代。

The executive order also permits other digital tokens to be added to the reserve.

行政命令還允許將其他數字代幣添加到保護區。

Trump has previously indicated that bitcoin’s nearest rival, ether (ETH), along with three other tokens — XRP, Solana (SOL) and Cardano (ADA)— could be included.

特朗普此前曾表示，可以包括比特幣最近的競爭對手Ether（ETH）以及其他三個令牌-XRP，Solana（Sol）和Cardano（ADA）。

Why is bitcoin different from gold?

為什麼比特幣與黃金不同？

A number of critics have pointed out that, unlike gold, cryptocurrencies are volatile and speculative assets that have no intrinsic value.

許多批評家指出，與黃金不同，加密貨幣是揮發性和投機性資產，沒有內在價值。

However, Sacks believes that by storing bitcoin over time, the government would be able to diversify its portfolio and protect itself from the cryptocurrency’s massive short-term volatility.

但是，薩克斯認為，隨著時間的流逝，政府將能夠多樣化其投資組合併保護自己免受加密貨幣的巨大短期波動。

Meanwhile, Stéphane Ifrah, an investment director at crypto platform Coinhouse, said that bitcoin, like gold, can profit from its scarcity thanks to a limited 21 million tokens.

同時，Crypto Platform Coinhouse的投資總監StéphaneIfrah表示，由於有限的2100萬個代幣，比特幣像黃金一樣可以從稀缺中獲利。

An advantage of the bitcoin reserve is its transparency, since the level of tokens will be known at all times — unlike the amount of gold that is purportedly placed in Fort Knox.

比特幣儲備的優點是它的透明度，因為代幣的水平將始終聞名 - 與據稱放置在諾克斯堡的黃金數量不同。

Additionally, with the bitcoin reserve, “we’re dealing with a rare asset that’s much more suited to today’s world”, Ifrah told.

此外，在比特幣保護區中，“我們正在處理一項更適合當今世界的罕見資產”。

Prominent cryptocurrency critic, Molly White, believes the “true reason” for the reserve “is a way to drive interest in the crypto industry”, which could financially benefit investors.

著名的加密貨幣評論家莫莉·懷特（Molly White）認為，儲備金的“真正原因”是“一種引起加密貨幣行業興趣的方式”，這可能會對投資者有利。

Trump has been accused by some of showing a conflict of interest, having vowed ahead of being elected to make the US the “bitcoin and cryptocurrency capital of the world”.

特朗普被某些人表現出了利益衝突的指控，他發誓要當選為使美國成為“世界的比特幣和加密貨幣之都”。

The Financial Times reported that Trump will earn $350 million from launching a meme coin, $TRUMP, to coincide with his inauguration.

《金融時報》報導說，特朗普將通過推出一枚模因硬幣$ trump賺取3.5億美元，以與他的就職典禮相吻合。

The Wall Street Journal has reported that the Trump family discussed acquiring a possible stake in the Binance platform — a report denied by the crypto exchange’s founder.

《華爾街日報》報導說，特朗普家族討論了在Binance平台上獲得可能的股份，這是Crypto Exchange的創始人否認的一份報告。
