克里斯汀史密斯 (Kristin Smith) 在 Squawk Box 上討論當選總統川普領導下的加密貨幣未來

區塊鏈協會首席執行官克里斯汀史密斯（Kristin Smith）最近談到了對比特幣不斷增長的需求，強調了其日益重要的作用

As the year 2025 approaches, people are showing a stronger preference for holding Bitcoin, according to Kristin Smith, CEO of the Blockchain Association, in an interview on CNBC’s Squawk Box on December 26. This preference marks a shift in attitude towards the cryptocurrency.

區塊鏈協會執行長Kristin Smith 在12 月26 日接受CNBC Squawk Box 採訪時表示，隨著2025 年的臨近，人們對持有比特幣表現出更強烈的偏好。貨幣態度的轉變。

“People are looking to hold more Bitcoin, not less,” Smith stated. “The change in leadership, particularly with President-elect Donald Trump, has given many in the crypto community a renewed sense of optimism.”

史密斯表示：“人們希望持有更多而不是更少的比特幣。” “領導層的變化，特別是當選總統唐納德·特朗普的變化，讓加密貨幣社區的許多人重新燃起樂觀情緒。”

Smith's comments follow Bitcoin's recent price surge, which saw it reach a historic high of $108,000 earlier in December. She suggested that such market trends, paired with the potential for Bitcoin reserves, could signal a bright future for the cryptocurrency.

在史密斯發表此番言論之前，比特幣價格近期飆升，並於 12 月初達到 108,000 美元的歷史高點。她表示，這樣的市場趨勢，加上比特幣儲備的潛力，可能預示著加密貨幣的光明未來。

Smith also highlighted the potential impact of Trump's presidency on the cryptocurrency space. As he prepares to take office, Trump has made it clear that he intends to create a more crypto-friendly regulatory environment.

史密斯也強調了川普擔任總統對加密貨幣領域的潛在影響。在準備就職之際，川普明確表示，他打算創造一個對加密貨幣更友善的監管環境。

“Having a president who says, ‘Hey, we want the U.S. to be the capital of this industry; we want to fight for you,’ makes a tremendous amount of difference,” Smith said, suggesting that this shift could encourage more investors to hold Bitcoin, especially with an administration that is viewed as being more favorable to the needs of the industry.

「有一位總統說，『嘿，我們希望美國成為這個產業的首都；史密斯表示，這種轉變可能會鼓勵更多投資者持有比特幣，尤其是在政府被認為更符合產業需求的情況下。

Trump has already made several moves in the crypto space, including launching his family's crypto platform, World Liberty Financial. He has also consistently advocated for clearer, more supportive regulations for digital assets, a stance that has resonated with industry leaders like Smith.

川普已經在加密貨幣領域採取了多項舉措，包括推出其家族的加密貨幣平台 World Liberty Financial。他也一貫主張對數位資產制定更清晰、更具支持性的法規，這一立場引起了史密斯等行業領導者的共鳴。

While the crypto community is largely in favor of less restrictive regulations, Smith emphasized the importance of oversight to ensure a fair and efficient market.

雖然加密貨幣社群在很大程度上贊成限制性較小的監管，但史密斯強調了監督對於確保公平和高效市場的重要性。

“They want to have a government with some oversight to ensure there aren't conflicts of interest, that things are running smoothly,” she said. “There isn't any funny business at that level.”

「他們希望政府能夠進行一定的監督，以確保不存在利益衝突，確保事情順利進行，」她說。 “在這個級別上沒有任何有趣的事情。”

The industry's plea for balanced regulation, combined with Trump's pledge to foster an atmosphere that encourages innovation, signals a potentially pivotal moment for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

該行業對平衡監管的呼籲，加上川普承諾營造鼓勵創新的氛圍，標誌著比特幣和其他加密貨幣的潛在關鍵時刻。

The rise in Bitcoin's price following the United States presidential election demonstrates increased optimism about the future of digital currencies. As Bitcoin reached a new all-time high of $108,000, many commentators predicted that the planned construction of a US Bitcoin reserve, paired with Trump's regulatory promises, would accelerate its rise.

美國總統大選後比特幣價格的上漲顯示人們對數位貨幣的未來更加樂觀。隨著比特幣創下 108,000 美元的歷史新高，許多評論人士預測，美國比特幣儲備的建設計劃，加上川普的監管承諾，將加速比特幣的上漲。

At the Bitcoin 2024 Conference, Trump made a public pledge to enact crypto-friendly regulations, stating, “We will have regulations, but from now on, the rules will be written by the people who love your industry, not hate your industry.” His remarks, alongside the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs, have bolstered investor confidence, further boosting Bitcoin's value.

在比特幣2024 大會上，川普公開承諾制定對加密貨幣友善的法規，並表示，「我們會有法規，但從現在開始，規則將由熱愛你的行業而不是討厭你的行業的人來製定。他的言論以及現貨比特幣 ETF 的批准增強了投資者的信心，進一步提升了比特幣的價值。

Smith also pointed to the increasing involvement of traditional financial advisors in the cryptocurrency market as a sign of Bitcoin's growing legitimacy.

史密斯也指出，傳統財務顧問越來越多地參與加密貨幣市場，這是比特幣合法性不斷增強的標誌。

“You have a lot of people who are learning about Bitcoin for the first time,” she said. “As more and more retail financial advisors are advising their clients to get involved, we're going to see even more people coming into Bitcoin.”

「有很多人是第一次了解比特幣，」她說。 “隨著越來越多的零售金融顧問建議他們的客戶參與其中，我們將看到更多的人進入比特幣。”

Despite the positive momentum, Smith admitted that it is uncertain how Trump's administration will eventually change the regulatory landscape for Bitcoin and other digital assets. While his pro-crypto attitude has piqued investors' interest, the practical implications of his initiatives need to be seen.

儘管勢頭積極，史密斯承認，川普政府最終將如何改變比特幣和其他數位資產的監管格局尚不確定。雖然他支持加密貨幣的態度激起了投資者的興趣，但他的舉措的實際影響還有待觀察。

As Bitcoin evolves, its increasing popularity in both mainstream and retail circles, along with a potentially more favorable regulatory framework, suggests that 2025 could be a historical year for the cryptocurrency market.

隨著比特幣的發展，它在主流和零售圈中越來越受歡迎，以及可能更有利的監管框架，表明 2025 年可能是加密貨幣市場歷史性的一年。
