The statement from Hut 8 read that the new venture aimed to become “the world’s largest, most efficient pure-play Bitcoin miner while building a robust strategic Bitcoin reserve.” Hut 8 will be responsible for the mining operations but will operate through the American Bitcoin brand.

Hut 8的聲明寫道，這項新的合資企業旨在成為“世界上最大，最有效的純比特幣礦工，同時建立強大的戰略比特幣儲備”。小屋8將負責採礦業務，但將通過美國比特幣品牌運作。

Donald Trump Jr. stated: “We’ve been investing in Bitcoin for a while now, and we’re excited to take the next step in this journey with American Bitcoin.

We’re excited to bring investors into that equation through a platform engineered to execute this thesis and deliver real, tangible participation in Bitcoin’s growth.”

Bitcoin mining is an energy-intensive undertaking that uses computing power to validate Bitcoin transactions and earn miners newly minted coins. The industry has experienced tremendous growth over the years despite environmental concerns.

比特幣採礦是一項能源密集型業務，它使用計算能力來驗證比特幣交易並賺取新鑄造的硬幣。儘管有環境問題，多年來，該行業經歷了巨大的增長。

關於盈利能力的潛力，小唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump Jr.）表示：“從一開始，我們就親自和通過我們的業務來支持對比特幣的信念。”

The entry into the lucrative but highly competitive world of Bitcoin mining becomes the Trump family’s third serious crypto venture within less than a year.

進入利潤豐厚但競爭激烈的比特幣採礦世界成為特朗普家族在不到一年之內的第三次認真加密貨幣。

President Trump and his sons launched World Liberty Financial, a decentralized finance (DeFi) venture, during the Presidential campaigns in September, including a stablecoin, USD1, launched last week. On the eve of his inauguration in January this year, Trump and First Lady Melania launched their meme coins, $TRUMP and $MELANIA.

特朗普總統和他的兒子在9月的總統競選期間推出了世界自由金融（DEFI），包括上周啟動的一家穩定的USD1。在今年1月就職典禮前夕，特朗普和第一夫人梅拉尼亞（Melania）發起了他們的模因硬幣，$ trump和$ melania。

The US First family’s ventures into the crypto space haven’t gone smoothly with several lawmakers and other industry players, and several government regulatory agencies raised concerns about potential conflict of interest.

美國第一家庭進入加密貨幣領域的冒險並沒有與幾位立法者和其他行業參與者順利進行，幾個政府監管機構引起了人們對潛在利益衝突的擔憂。

From a severe crypto critic who called Bitcoin a scam four years ago, President Trump has, since taking office, made headlines by doing everything at his disposal to ease regulatory scrutiny and issuing an executive order to create a strategic Bitcoin reserve. He frequently touts plans to make the US the “crypto capital of the planet.”

從四年前將比特幣稱為騙局的嚴重加密批評家，特朗普總統就職以後，做出了一切努力來減輕監管審查並發出行政命令，以創建戰略性比特幣儲備。他經常吹捧計劃使美國成為“地球的加密首都”。

While the newly launched American Bitcoin may be separate from the other Trump family entity, World Liberty Financial, the two could eventually collaborate.

雖然新推出的美國比特幣可能與其他特朗普家庭實體分開，但世界自由金融，但兩者最終可能會合作。

Hut 8 has reportedly surpassed $1 billion worth of Bitcoin holdings after it acquired some 990 Bitcoins for $100 million at the end of last year. The latest acquisition brings the company’s total holdings to 10,096 BTC at a time when Bitcoin mining revenue approached $3.6 billion in Q1 2025 as industry income stabilized after the last halving.

據報導，HUT 8在去年年底以1億美元的價格收購了約990個比特幣後，超過了價值10億美元的比特幣持有量。最新的收購使該公司的總股份達到了10,096 BTC，當時比特幣採礦收入在第1季度的第1季度接近36億美元，因為最後一半減半後行業收入穩定下來。
