當選總統唐納德·特朗普和 Coinbase 首席執行官布萊恩·阿姆斯特朗本週討論了加密貨幣

這種新發現的影響力體現在當選總統唐納德·川普本週與 Coinbase 創始人兼執行長布萊恩·阿姆斯壯的電話中。

President-elect Donald Trump's newfound enthusiasm for cryptocurrency was evident in a phone call this week with Brian Armstrong, founder and CEO of Coinbase.

當選總統唐納德·川普在本週與 Coinbase 創始人兼首席執行官布萊恩·阿姆斯特朗 (Brian Armstrong) 的電話中表現出了對加密貨幣的新熱情。

Armstrong and his company poured nearly $50 million into supporting pro-crypto candidates, whose ranks now include Trump, a one-time Bitcoin skeptic who became a full-on convert to digital currency earlier this year.

阿姆斯壯和他的公司投入了近 5000 萬美元來支持支持加密貨幣的候選人，其中現在包括川普，這位曾經的比特幣懷疑論者，今年早些時候全面轉向數位貨幣。

In recent months, Trump has floated ideas like a crypto advisory council and a strategic reserve for Bitcoin. He also counts a number of longtime crypto boosters in his inner circle, including Elon Musk and the CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald, Howard Lutnick, whose firm helps manage the reserves of stablecoin giant Tether and who on Tuesday was tapped to be Commerce Secretary.

最近幾個月，川普提出了加密貨幣諮詢委員會和比特幣戰略儲備等想法。他的核心圈子裡還有一些長期的加密貨幣支持者，包括埃隆·馬斯克(Elon Musk)和坎托·菲茨杰拉德(Cantor Fitzgerald)的首席執行官霍華德·盧特尼克(Howard Lutnick )，後者的公司協助管理穩定幣巨頭Tether的儲備，他於週二被任命為商務部長。

A person familiar with the call, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said Armstrong and Trump did not discuss specific appointments but instead spoke about crypto on a broader level. Coinbase declined to comment on the call. The Wall Street Journal reported on Monday that the two would meet.

一位不願透露姓名的知情人士表示，阿姆斯壯和川普沒有討論具體任命，而是在更廣泛的層面上談論了加密貨幣。 Coinbase 拒絕對此通話發表評論。 《華爾街日報》週一報道稱，兩人將會面。

There have also been unconfirmed reports on X that another prominent crypto CEO, Ripple's Brad Garlinghouse, has had direct access to the President-elect. A Ripple spokesperson told Fortune the company does not discuss private conversations.

X 上還有未經證實的報導稱，另一位著名的加密貨幣執行長、Ripple 的 Brad Garlinghouse 可以直接接觸當選總統。 Ripple 發言人告訴《財星》雜誌，該公司不討論私人對話。

According to the person familiar with the Trump-Armstrong call, as well as a well-known Washington DC crypto figure, the industry's primary focus for now is who will be appointed to lead two key financial agencies: the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodities and Exchange Futures Commission.

據熟悉川普與阿姆斯壯通話的人士以及華盛頓特區一位知名加密貨幣人士表示，該行業目前的主要關注點是誰將被任命領導兩個關鍵金融機構：美國證券交易委員會和大宗商品交易所和交易所期貨委員會。

“The SEC is where all the damage is being carried out,” said the Washington, DC figure, citing a wave of lawsuits unleashed by Chairman Gary Gensler. While Gensler is expected to be gone by the end of the year, the person said it remains uncertain whether the agency will immediately call off numerous cases not related to fraud. They added that an interim Chair would be less likely to take this step.

這位華盛頓特區的人士援引主席加里·詹斯勒(Gary Gensler)發起的一波訴訟表示：“所有損害都是由美國證券交易委員會造成的。”儘管詹斯勒預計將在今年底離職，但該人士表示，目前還不確定該機構是否會立即取消眾多與詐欺無關的案件。他們補充說，臨時主席不太可能採取這一步驟。

Meanwhile, the CFTC could take on a greatly expanded role in the crypto realm if legislation goes forward to strip the SEC of some of its proclaimed powers over digital assets and hands them to the commodities regulator instead. Among the frontrunners to be the next leader of the CFTC are two crypto industry favorites: Summer Mersinger who is a current Commissioner, and Milbank lawyer, Josh Sterling, who has regularly pled cases before industry.

同時，如果立法繼續推進，剝奪美國證券交易委員會對數位資產的一些宣稱的權力，並將其交給大宗商品監管機構，那麼美國商品期貨交易委員會可能會在加密貨幣領域發揮更大的作用。在 CFTC 下一任領導人的領跑者中，有兩位加密貨幣行業最受青睞的人選：現任委員 Summer Mersinger 和經常在行業面前答辯的 Milbank 律師 Josh Sterling。

A final role the crypto industry is watching closely: Who is selected to be the Treasury Department's Under Secretary for Terrorism and Financial Intelligence, a position that helps oversee regulations related to money laundering and illicit banking.

加密貨幣行業正在密切關注的最後一個角色：誰被選為財政部負責恐怖主義和金融情報的副部長，該職位有助於監督與洗錢和非法銀行業務相關的法規。
