在伯尼·莫雷諾(Bernie Moreno)身上,美國的加密貨幣巨頭看到了志趣相投的人:一位前貨幣所有者和企業家,他公開承諾「領導美國參議院捍衛加密貨幣的鬥爭」。
Major cryptocurrency interests are pouring millions of dollars into Ohio as part of an aggressive, nationwide bid to tilt Congress in their favor. These interests have primarily funneled their support into a network of obscurely named super PACs, which have blitzed Ohio airwaves with glowing biographical ads about GOP Senate candidate Bernie Moreno.
主要的加密貨幣利益集團正在向俄亥俄州投入數百萬美元,作為其在全國範圍內積極爭取國會支持他們的努力的一部分。這些利益團體主要將他們的支持集中到一個由名字模糊的超級政治行動委員會組成的網絡中,該網絡在俄亥俄州的廣播電台上播出了有關共和黨參議院候選人伯尼·莫雷諾的精彩傳記廣告。
The surging crypto cash and support underscore the industry’s rapid political awakening, roughly two years after the collapse of FTX — one of the world’s largest token marketplaces — rattled policymakers around the world.
加密貨幣現金和支持的激增突顯了該行業迅速的政治覺醒,大約在全球最大的代幣市場之一 FTX 崩潰兩年後,令世界各地的政策制定者感到不安。
“This is an industry that’s new, lightly regulated [and] doesn’t want to be regulated,” said Ian Vandewalker, a senior counsel at the Brennan Center for Justice, which advocates for limits on election spending. “They are very much trying to use election spending to affect federal policy in a way that will help their bottom line.”
「這是一個新的、監管不嚴的行業,不想受到監管,」主張限制選舉支出的布倫南司法中心高級顧問 Ian Vandewalker 表示。 “他們非常試圖利用選舉支出來影響聯邦政策,從而有助於他們的利潤。”
Crypto groups dialed up hefty campaign checks to lawmakers earlier this year, part of a successful lobbying barrage to help advance a House measure that would neuter the Securities and Exchange Commission, the first major bill affecting the crypto industry. And major crypto backers financed a trio of new super PACs, which can spend unlimited sums on political advertising.
今年早些時候,加密貨幣組織向立法者發起了巨額競選檢查,這是成功遊說的一部分,以幫助推進眾議院一項旨在削弱美國證券交易委員會的措施,這是影響加密貨幣行業的第一個重大法案。主要的加密貨幣支持者資助了三個新的超級政治行動委員會,它們可以在政治廣告上花費無限的資金。
Led by the organization Fairshake, the funders include the crypto exchange Coinbase and its chief executive, Brian Armstrong; the payment platform Ripple; and top crypto investors, such as the venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz. Coinbase and Ripple have warred with the SEC over allegations that they have violated federal investor protection laws. They deny the charges.
由 Fairshake 組織領導,資助者包括加密貨幣交易所 Coinbase 及其執行長 Brian Armstrong;支付平台瑞波幣;以及頂級加密貨幣投資者,例如創投公司 Andreessen Horowitz。 Coinbase 和 Ripple 因被指控違反聯邦投資者保護法而與 SEC 發生爭執。他們否認這些指控。
“The 52 million Americans who own crypto have been drowned out by a small minority of partisan legislators for too long," Paul Grewal, the chief legal officer of Coinbase, said in a statement. “Coinbase is laser focused on crypto - not partisan politics - and we’ll keep empowering crypto voters to make their voices heard.”
Coinbase 首席法律官Paul Grewal 在一份聲明中表示:「擁有加密貨幣的5,200 萬美國人長期以來一直被少數黨派立法者淹沒。」Coinbase 的首席法律官Paul Grewal 在一份聲明中表示。於加密貨幣,而不是黨派政治- 我們將繼續賦予加密選民權力,讓他們的聲音被聽到。
By early September, Fairshake and two affiliates — Defend American Jobs and Protect Progress, which focus on Republicans and Democrats, respectively — had amassed a total war chest exceeding $169 million, spokesman Josh Vlasto confirmed. So far, they have spent about $130 million on advertising, according to federal records and data from AdImpact, a monitoring firm, intervening in 51 races primarily to help candidates who have promised not to harshly regulate crypto.
發言人喬什·弗拉斯托(Josh Vlasto) 證實,到9 月初,Fairshake 及其兩個附屬機構——“捍衛美國就業”和“保護進步”,分別關注共和黨和民主黨——已經籌集了超過1.69 億美元的總資金。根據聯邦記錄和監控公司 AdImpact 的數據,到目前為止,他們已經花費了約 1.3 億美元用於廣告,幹預了 51 場競選,主要是為了幫助那些承諾不會嚴格監管加密貨幣的候選人。
In taking aim at Ohio, the Fairshake network this fall mounted its most aggressive political gambit, hoping to replace Brown, a senior Democrat and crypto skeptic, with Moreno, a Republican who has long extolled the virtues of cryptocurrency. The GOP candidate reportedly has claimed the “Founding Fathers would have been bitcoiners,” for example, and he has linked some federal regulation around the industry to “tyranny.”
為了瞄準俄亥俄州,Fairshake 網路今年秋天採取了最激進的政治策略,希望用長期讚揚加密貨幣優點的共和黨人莫雷諾取代資深民主黨人和加密貨幣懷疑論者布朗。據報道,這位共和黨候選人聲稱“開國元勳本來就是比特幣支持者”,他還將一些圍繞該行業的聯邦監管與“暴政”聯繫起來。
“It’s really a double win for the crypto industry if they push Moreno over the finish line,” said Christopher Devine, a professor in political science at the University of Dayton. “They have a strong advocate in him,” while simultaneously, “they’re pushing out someone who’s basically going to lead the regulatory efforts against them.”
代頓大學政治學教授克里斯托弗·迪瓦恩 (Christopher Devine) 表示:“如果他們推動莫雷諾衝過終點線,這對加密行業來說確實是雙贏。” “他們在他身上有一個強有力的支持者,”同時,“他們正在驅逐一個基本上將領導針對他們的監管工作的人。”
None of the spots so far mention the crypto industry, or its financing of the ads, obscuring the role its top companies and executives have played in the race. Fairshake aides declined to comment for this story.
到目前為止,所有廣告都沒有提及加密產業或其廣告融資,掩蓋了其頂級公司和高階主管在競爭中所扮演的角色。 Fairshake 的助手拒絕對此事發表評論。
“Quite frankly, those ads, they don’t lead you to any belief that they’re attached to crypto,” said James B. Renacci, a former Republican congressman who ran unsuccessfully against Brown in s 2018. “It’s not an issue anyone is talking about.”
「坦白說,這些廣告不會讓你相信它們與加密貨幣有關,」2018 年與布朗競選失敗的前共和黨國會議員 James B. Renacci 說。 」
Barnstorming the state in a bright red bus bearing his visage, Moreno himself rarely mentions one of his leading corporate benefactors in stump speeches that tend to be heavy on vocal impressions of Brown and crowd-pleasing broadsides about an influx of undocumented immigrants.
莫雷諾乘坐一輛帶有他頭像的鮮紅色巴士在全州進行巡迴演講,他本人在演講中很少提及他的一位主要企業捐助者,這些演講往往著重於對布朗的直言不諱的印象以及對非法移民湧入的討好群眾的猛烈抨擊。
When he stepped in front of the lectern at a community center in Cleveland earlier this month, he joked about the rising cost of fast food at McDonald’s, and warned that Democratic control of Congress and the White House would plunge the United States into political chaos.
本月早些時候,當他站在克利夫蘭一個社區中心的講台前時,他開玩笑說麥當勞快餐價格上漲,並警告民主黨對國會和白宮的控制將使美國陷入政治混亂。
“In one generation, this country will look like Venezuela,” Moreno told the crowd before signing autographs. “That’s not hyperbole.”
「在一代人的時間裡,這個國家將看起來像委內瑞拉,」莫雷諾在簽名前告訴人群。 “這並不誇張。”
A former used-car salesman, Moreno has long immersed himself in blockchain technology, a registry of ownership that essentially underpins all cryptocurrency. He founded a blockchain firm, called Ownum, in 2018 that unveiled a product to help states use the technology to track car titles.
莫雷諾曾是一名二手車銷售員,長期以來一直沉浸在區塊鏈技術中,區塊鏈技術是一種所有權登記系統,本質上是所有加密貨幣的基礎。他於 2018 年創立了一家名為 Ownum 的區塊鏈公司,推出了一款產品,幫助各州使用該技術追蹤汽車所有權。
Before entering politics, Moreno helped organize local blockchain-related conferences, and he led a since-abandoned effort to redevelop a portion of Cleveland into a start-up hub. When Ohio became the first state to allow residents to pay their taxes using bitcoin, Moreno jumped at the opportunity, joining Josh Mandel — then the state treasurer, and a future political rival — for a photo to commemorate the transaction.
在進入政界之前,莫雷諾幫助組織了當地與區塊鏈相關的會議,並領導了一項後來被放棄的項目,將克利夫蘭的一部分重新開發為創業中心。當俄亥俄州成為第一個允許居民使用比特幣繳稅的州時,莫雷諾抓住了這個機會,與當時的州財政部長、未來的政治對手喬什·曼德爾(Josh Mandel) 一起合影留念,以紀念這筆交易。
