The president’s oldest sons are merging their firm, American Data Centers, with Hut 8 to create a new mining venture called American Bitcoin.

總統最古老的兒子正在將其公司《美國數據中心》與Hut 8合併，以創建一個名為American Bitcoin的新礦業公司。

The siblings will take a 20% stake in the company, with Hut 8, which does the bitcoin mining, holding the remaining 80%.

兄弟姐妹將擁有該公司20％的股份，其中Hut 8將進行比特幣採礦，持有其餘80％的股份。

Hut 8 is contributing around 61,000 mining machines from its sprawling data centers to the new company, in exchange for its share in the company, according to The Wall Street Journal.

根據《華爾街日報》的報導，從其龐大的數據中心到新公司，Hut 8將貢獻約61,000台採礦機，以換取其在公司中的份額。

American Data Centers was formed earlier this year by the two Trump brothers and Dominari, a small investment firm that leases space in the Trump Tower.

美國數據中心是由兩個特朗普兄弟和多米納里（Dominari）組成的，這是一家小型投資公司，租賃特朗普大廈的空間。

American Bitcoin is the third major crypto venture that the Trump family has launched in the past year, which has prompted conflict of interest concerns since the start of the second Trump administration.

美國比特幣是特朗普家族在過去一年中發起的第三個主要加密貨幣，自第二屆特朗普政府開始以來引起了利益衝突的關注。

The brothers launched World Liberty Financial, which offers two types of digital currency, during the election campaign.

在競選期間，兄弟倆推出了世界自由金融（World Liberty Financial），提供了兩種類型的數字貨幣。

On the eve of being sworn in as president, Trump launched the $TRUMP meme coin, which Republicans largely turned a blind eye to.

在擔任總統的前夕，特朗普推出了$特朗普的模因硬幣，共和黨人在很大程度上對此視而不見。

So what are the Trump brothers now getting into?

那麼，特朗普兄弟現在進入什麼？

Put simply, cryptocurrency is digital money, which is designed to work through an online network without a central authority.

簡而言之，加密貨幣是數字貨幣，旨在通過沒有中央權威的在線網絡工作。

Bitcoin is the largest and oldest cryptocurrency, although other assets such as ethereum, tether and Elon Musk’s dogecoin have grown in more recent years.

比特幣是最大，最古老的加密貨幣，儘管近年來以太坊，Tether和Elon Musk的Dogecoin等其他資產也在增長。

Bitcoin is created through an energy-intensive process called “mining,” which sees computer servers solve complex equations to unlock new tokens.

比特幣是通過稱為“採礦”的能源密集型過程創建的，該過程看到計算機服務器求解複雜方程以解鎖新令牌。

Eric Trump, who will serve as American Bitcoin’s chief strategy officer, told the Journal that getting fully into digital currency was a sound “hedge” against the real estate investments that have made the Trump family famous.

埃里克·特朗普（Eric Trump）將擔任美國比特幣首席戰略官，他告訴《華爾街日報》（Journal），完全進入數字貨幣是對使特朗普家族聞名的房地產投資的“對沖”。

He spoke of plans to build a “bitcoin reserve” and potentially take the company public.

他談到了建立“比特幣儲備”的計劃，並有可能將公司公開。

American Bitcoin will remain a separate venture from the Trump Organization ― the family real estate empire.

美國比特幣將與特朗普組織（家庭房地產帝國）保持單獨的企業。

In a press release, Donald Trump Jr. spoke of their long-standing “conviction in bitcoin,” and that “mining it on favorable economics opens an even bigger opportunity.”

小唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump Jr.）在新聞稿中談到了他們長期以來的“比特幣定罪”，並“在有利的經濟學上開採它為更大的機會開放。”

After the GOP candidate signaled a lighter regulatory approach to the industry on the campaign trail, reversing his previous skepticism, cryptocurrencies surged to record highs after Trump won a second term in office.

在共和黨候選人在競選活動中對行業進行了更輕鬆的監管方法，扭轉了他以前的懷疑主義之後，加密貨幣在特朗普贏得了第二任期後迅速記錄了高高。

But, in common with Wall Street more widely, crypto prices have dropped back amid fears, among other factors, over Trump’s tariffs war rekindling inflation.

但是，與華爾街更廣泛的普遍存在，加密價格在擔心特朗普的關稅重新燃燒通貨膨脹的情況下，加密價格已經下降了。
