加密貨幣透過部署龐大的競選資金來推進其議程，從而登上了政治的高台

比特幣躍升至歷史新高，這是全球市場因唐納德·川普獲勝而出現的一波交易的一部分

Bitcoin soared to a record high Monday as part of a wave of trades across global markets in response to Donald Trump emerging victorious over Democratic rival Kamala Harris in the US presidential election.

週一，隨著唐納德·川普(Donald Trump)在美國總統選舉中擊敗民主黨競爭對手卡馬拉·哈里斯(Kamala Harris)，全球市場出現一波交易浪潮，比特幣飆升至歷史新高。

The largest digital asset rose as much as 10% to $76,106 with Trump winning a second term, the Republicans taking back the Senate and the House looking increasingly more likely to remain red. The increase was the most since the last peak in March, when investors were cheered by inflows into US Bitcoin exchange-traded funds.

隨著川普贏得第二個任期，最大的數位資產上漲 10% 至 76,106 美元，共和黨奪回參議院和眾議院，看起來越來越有可能保持紅色。此次漲幅是自 3 月上一次高峰以來的最大漲幅，當時投資者因資金流入美國比特幣交易所交易基金而歡呼雀躍。

Bitcoin is viewed by many as a so-called Trump trade because the former president embraced digital assets during his campaign after a major push by the industry.

比特幣被許多人視為所謂的川普交易，因為在該行業的大力推動下，這位前總統在競選期間接受了數位資產。

Crypto muscled onto the high table of politics by deploying a giant campaign-finance war chest to further its agenda. Trump vowed to make the US the crypto capital of the planet, create a strategic Bitcoin stockpile and appoint regulators who love digital assets.

加密貨幣透過部署龐大的競選資金來推進其議程，從而躋身政治高台。川普發誓要讓美國成為地球上的加密貨幣之都，建立戰略性的比特幣儲備，並任命熱愛數位資產的監管機構。

Harris adopted a more measured approach, pledging to support a regulatory framework for the industry. In contrast, the Securities & Exchange Commission under the Biden administration pursued a crackdown via a flurry of enforcement actions.

哈里斯採取了更謹慎的方法，承諾支持該行業的監管框架。相比之下，拜登政府領導下的證券交易委員會透過一系列執法行動進行了打擊。

“The crypto industry feels like it’s been operating with one hand tied behind its back for years, and it senses that might be coming to an end,” said Matthew Hougan, chief investment officer of Bitwise Asset Management Inc. “People are starting to position for the next few years in crypto.”

Bitwise 資產管理公司首席投資長 Matthew Hougan 表示：「多年來，加密貨幣行業似乎一直在用一隻手綁在背後運營，而且它感覺到這種情況可能即將結束。」「人們開始定位未來幾年加密貨幣領域。

In Ohio, Republican car dealer and blockchain entrepreneur Bernie Moreno beat Senate Banking Chairman Sherrod Brown in a race that saw crypto titans spend some $40 million to defeat the Democrat.

在俄亥俄州，共和黨汽車經銷商和區塊鏈企業家伯尼·莫雷諾(Bernie Moreno) 在一場競選中擊敗了參議院銀行業主席謝羅德·布朗(Sherrod Brown)，加密巨頭花費了約4000 萬美元擊敗了民主黨。

The prospect of friendlier US crypto rules led to gains across the digital-asset market. Second-ranked token Ether added about 12%. Dogecoin, a meme-crowd favorite promoted by Trump supporter Elon Musk, rallied 31% at one point.

美國加密貨幣規則更加友善的前景導致整個數位資產市場上漲。排名第二的代幣以太幣上漲了約12%。川普支持者 Elon Musk 推崇的狗狗幣 (Dogecoin) 曾一度上漲 31%。

Gensler’s Fate

詹斯勒的命運

Digital-asset companies often complained that officials under President Joe Biden failed to create a clear new legal framework for the nascent market.

數位資產公司經常抱怨喬·拜登總統領導下的官員未能為新興市場制定明確的新法律框架。

SEC Chair Gary Gensler said existing rules apply and repeatedly labeled the sector as rife with fraud and misconduct. The agency cracked down on crypto following a 2022 market rout that triggered a litany of collapses, notably the bankruptcy of Sam Bankman-Fried’s fraudulent FTX exchange.

SEC 主席 Gary Gensler 表示，現有規則適用，並多次將該行業貼上欺詐和不當行為氾濫的標籤。 2022 年市場暴跌引發一系列崩潰，特別是 Sam Bankman-Fried 的欺詐性 FTX 交易所破產後，該機構對加密貨幣進行了打擊。

“The first test of his credibility to watch out for is whether he will deliver on his promise to fire Gensler on his first day in office,” said Le Shi, Hong Kong managing director at market making firm Auros.

做市商 Auros 香港董事總經理樂石表示，“對他可信度的第一個考驗是，他是否會兌現上任第一天解僱詹斯勒的承諾。”

Bitcoin has now advanced more than 80% in 2024, topping assets such as stocks and gold. US spot-Bitcoin ETFs, from issuers such as BlackRock Inc. and Fidelity Investments, have attracted $23.5 billion of net inflows following their launch at the start of the year — among the most successful new ETFs in history.

目前，比特幣在 2024 年的漲幅已超過 80%，超過了股票和黃金等資產。來自貝萊德(BlackRock Inc.) 和富達投資(Fidelity Investments) 等發行人的美國現貨比特幣ETF 自今年年初推出以來，已吸引了235 億美元的淨流入，躋身歷史上最成功的新ETF之列。
