德國追隨美國創建比特幣戰略儲備？

據《商報》報道，德國自由民主黨 (FDP) 領導人克里斯蒂安·林德納 (Christian Lindner) 表示，他支持將比特幣 (BTC) 添加到國家儲備中。

Germany’s Free Democratic Party (FDP) leader Christian Lindner has expressed support for adding Bitcoin (BTC) to national reserves, as reported by Handelsblatt. This statement comes amid a growing global discussion on the role of cryptocurrencies in government-held assets.

根據德國商報報道，德國自由民主黨 (FDP) 領導人克里斯蒂安林德納 (Christian Lindner) 表示支持將比特幣 (BTC) 添加到國家儲備中。這項聲明發布之際，全球範圍內關於加密貨幣在政府持有資產中的作用的討論日益增多。

Christian Lindner, who has also served as Germany’s finance minister, has urged the European Central Bank (ECB) to consider integrating Bitcoin into the federal reserve. He points to the U.S. considering this option as a strong argument for Germany to follow suit.

曾擔任德國財政部長的克里斯蒂安·林德納（Christian Lindner）敦促歐洲央行（ECB）考慮將比特幣納入聯準會。他指出，美國認為這項選擇是德國效仿的有力理由。

According to Lindner, a Bitcoin reserve could enhance the resilience of Germany’s reserves. While the U.S. debates adding BTC to federal holdings, with Senator Cynthia Lummis proposing a bill that would require the treasury to purchase 5% of the total Bitcoin supply, the broader conversation continues to unfold.

林德納表示，比特幣儲備可以增強德國儲備的彈性。儘管美國正在討論將BTC 添加到聯邦持有中，參議員辛西婭·魯米斯(Cynthia Lummis) 提出了一項法案，要求財政部購買比特幣總供應量的5%，但更廣泛的討論仍在繼續展開。

“The new Trump administration is pursuing an extremely progressive policy on crypto-assets such as Bitcoin. In Washington, there is even consideration of the Federal Reserve including crypto-assets alongside currencies and gold in its reserves,” said Lindner.

「新川普政府正在對比特幣等加密資產奉行極為進步的政策。在華盛頓，聯準會甚至考慮將加密資產與貨幣和黃金一起納入其儲備，」林德納說。

Despite the legislative developments, skepticism persists within the U.S. financial sector. Jeff Park, who leads alpha strategies at Bitwise Invest, has reportedly estimated only a 10% chance of the U.S. embracing Bitcoin as a reserve asset in 2024. Meanwhile, other nations like Japan and China are hesitant to include cryptocurrencies in their reserves, as reported by CNF.

儘管立法取得了進展，但美國金融業內部仍存在懷疑態度。據報道，Bitwise Invest 阿爾法策略負責人Jeff Park 估計，美國到2024 年接受比特幣作為儲備資產的可能性只有10%。資產猶豫不決由 CNF 提供。

While institutional adoption has seen a substantial rise, volatility remains a significant hurdle for inclusion in the reserves of major economies. Critics highlight the vast price fluctuations of Bitcoin as the primary concern, contrasting it with the perceived stability of traditional reserve assets.

儘管機構採用率大幅上升，但波動性仍是納入主要經濟體儲備的重大障礙。批評者強調，比特幣的巨大價格波動是主要問題，與傳統儲備資產的穩定性形成鮮明對比。

However, Lindner dismisses such objections, emphasizing that even precious metals are not exempt from price volatility. His remarks align with a broader argument that Bitcoin could hold strategic value for diversifying and strengthening Germany’s financial reserves.

然而，林德納駁斥了這種反對意見，強調即使是貴金屬也不能免受價格波動的影響。他的言論與更廣泛的觀點一致，即比特幣可以對德國金融儲備多元化和加強具有戰略價值。

Germany’s Selloff for BTC In 2024

2024 年德國將拋售 BTC

If Donald Trump successfully creates a Bitcoin reserve after taking office on January 20, 2025, global trends could shift further. It could propel other countries to adopt BTC faster. However, Germany still has a long way to go to create such a reserve since earlier this year, the authorities dumped nearly 50,000 BTC.

如果唐納德·川普 (Donald Trump) 在 2025 年 1 月 20 日上任後成功創建比特幣儲備，全球趨勢可能會進一步轉變。它可以推動其他國家更快採用比特幣。然而，德國距離建立這樣的儲備還有很長的路要走，因為今年早些時候，當局拋售了近 50,000 枚比特幣。

Back in July 2024, German authorities announced the completion of a large-scale sale of 50,000 BTC, which generated €2.639 billion ($2.88 billion). This significant dump, which authorities referred to as an “emergency sale,” took place over three weeks between June 19 and July 12.

早在 2024 年 7 月，德國當局就宣布完成了 5 萬個 BTC 的大規模出售，創造了 26.39 億歐元（28.8 億美元）的收益。這次大規模的垃圾傾倒，被當局稱為“緊急出售”，發生在 6 月 19 日至 7 月 12 日之間的三週內。

The Bitcoin reserve was valued at approximately $2.1 billion at the time of its seizure as part of a probe into piracy websites and money laundering activities. Regulators declared the BTC price fluctuations as “irrelevant” to the process.

作為盜版網站和洗錢活動調查的一部分，比特幣儲備在被扣押時價值約為 21 億美元。監管機構宣布 BTC 價格波動與該過程「無關」。

At the time, the sale was coordinated by the Saxon Police’s Central Office for the Safeguarding, Custody, and Utilization of Cryptocurrencies in partnership with the Dresden Public Prosecutor’s Office. Germany-based trading firm Bankhaus Scheich also aided in managing the sale to ensure minimal market disruption. “The bank was commissioned to sell the Bitcoins in a way that was fair and gentle on the market,” stated the prosecutor’s office.

當時，此次銷售是由撒克遜警察加密貨幣保護、保管和利用中央辦公室與德勒斯登檢察官辦公室合作協調的。德國貿易公司 Bankhaus Scheich 也協助管理此次銷售，以確保將市場幹擾降到最低。檢察官辦公室表示：“該銀行受委託以在市場上公平且溫和的方式出售比特幣。”
