支持加密貨幣的執行長霍華德·盧特尼克 (Howard Lutnick) 被提名為美國商務部部長

根據最近的報道，資產管理公司Cantor Fitzgerald 的首席執行官、加密貨幣倡議的傑出支持者霍華德·盧特尼克(Howard Lutnick) 預計將被當選總統唐納德·特朗普提名為美國商務部(DOC) 的負責人。

Howard Lutnick, the CEO of asset management firm Cantor Fitzgerald and a prominent supporter of crypto initiatives, is expected to be nominated by President-elect Donald Trump to head the US Department of Commerce (DOC), according to recent reports.

根據最近的報道，資產管理公司Cantor Fitzgerald 的首席執行官、加密貨幣倡議的傑出支持者霍華德·盧特尼克(Howard Lutnick) 預計將被當選總統唐納德·特朗普提名為美國商務部(DOC) 的負責人。

This nomination comes amid growing speculation regarding Lutnick’s influence in shaping policies that could significantly impact the crypto industry.

這項提名是在人們越來越多地猜測盧特尼克在製定可能對加密貨幣行業產生重大影響的政策方面的影響力的。

The Pro-Crypto Leader Poised To Head The DOC As the public face of Trump’s transition team, Lutnick has been a vocal advocate for the incoming administration’s agenda, particularly concerning economic policies and tariffs.

支持加密貨幣的領導人準備領導美國商務部 作為川普過渡團隊的公眾代表，盧特尼克一直是即將上任的政府議程的直言不諱的倡導者，特別是在經濟政策和關稅方面。

The Commerce Department is set to play a crucial role in implementing Trump’s proposed tariffs on imported goods, which could have wide-ranging effects on the US economy.

商務部將在執行川普提議的進口商品關稅方面發揮關鍵作用，這可能對美國經濟產生廣泛影響。

Although unconfirmed, Lutnick’s new position in Trump’s administration would not directly relate to the digital asset industry. However, it has not been announced that his role at Cantor Fitzgerald will change after this potential appointment.

儘管未經證實，盧特尼克在川普政府中的新職位不會與數位資產產業直接相關。然而，尚未宣布他在 Cantor Fitzgerald 的角色在此次潛在任命後是否會發生變化。

Nevertheless, Lutnick’s support for the crypto ecosystem has been strong, as earlier this year, the firm he heads, which has a market valuation of $13.2 billion, announced plans to launch a specialized Bitcoin financing business aimed at providing leverage for investors in the cryptocurrency market.

儘管如此，Lutnick 對加密貨幣生態系統的支持一直很強勁，今年早些時候，他領導的公司（市值為132​​ 億美元）宣布計劃推出專門的比特幣融資業務，旨在為加密貨幣市場的投資者提供槓桿作用。

“We are excited to help unlock Bitcoin’s full potential and continue bridging the gap between traditional finance and digital assets,” Lutnick said regarding the firm’s commitment to merging the two worlds of finance.

「我們很高興能夠幫助釋放比特幣的全部潛力，並繼續縮小傳統金融和數位資產之間的差距，」盧特尼克在談到該公司融合兩個金融世界的承諾時表示。

In addition to his work at Cantor Fitzgerald, Lutnick’s connection with the crypto space extends to Tether, the world’s largest stablecoin issuer. Recently, Tether acquired a $100 million stake in Bitdeer Technologies Group, a US-listed Bitcoin mining company, with the transaction being facilitated by Cantor Fitzgerald.

除了在 Cantor Fitzgerald 的工作之外，Lutnick 與加密貨幣領域的連結也延伸到了全球最大的穩定幣發行商 Tether。最近，Tether 收購了美國上市比特幣挖礦公司 Bitdeer Technologies Group 1 億美元的股份，交易由 Cantor Fitzgerald 促成。

Lutnick Predicts Significant Value Increase For Bitcoin Reflecting on the relationship between Bitcoin and mainstream finance, Lutnick acknowledged the progress made over the past five years, pointing out existing barriers.

盧特尼克預測比特幣價值將大幅成長 反思比特幣與主流金融之間的關係，盧特尼克承認過去五年的進展，並指出了現有的障礙。

“The last five years, Bitcoin has been an outsider in the finance business but is coming closer and closer,” he noted.

「過去五年，比特幣一直是金融業的局外人，但現在離它越來越近了，」他指出。

Despite the presence of Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in the US a year after they were approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Lutnick highlighted that traditional banks still face difficulties in offering transactional and custodial services related to Bitcoin.

儘管比特幣交易所交易基金（ETF）在獲得美國證券交易委員會（SEC）批准一年後就出現在美國，但盧特尼克強調，傳統銀行在提供與比特幣相關的交易和託管服務方面仍然面臨困難。

However, Lutnick remains optimistic about Bitcoin’s future, stating that BTC is a financial asset and the market will treat it as such.

不過，Lutnick 對比特幣的未來仍然持樂觀態度，他表示 BTC 是一種金融資產，市場也會如此對待它。

“When that happens, you’re going to see Bitcoin move in a very strong positive direction.” He believes that as BTC becomes more accepted in the financial sector, its value will increase significantly over the next five years.

“當這種情況發生時，你將看到比特幣朝著非常強勁的積極方向發展。”他認為，隨著比特幣在金融領域越來越被接受，其價值將在未來五年內大幅增加。

As the transition team awaits confirmation of Lutnick’s nomination, attention is also focused on who will be appointed to lead the Treasury Department. Elon Musk, who is involved in the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), has openly supported Lutnick for the Treasury role.

在過渡團隊等待盧特尼克提名確認之際，人們的注意力也集中在誰將被任命為領導財政部。馬斯克（Elon Musk）參與了新成立的政府效率部（DOGE），他公開支持盧特尼克擔任財政部長。

At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $93,100, approaching its record high of $93,300 set last week.

截至撰寫本文時，比特幣交易價格為 93,100 美元，接近上週創下的歷史新高 93,300 美元。
