官方“meme 幣”被稱為“$TRUMP”，週五發行，價格接近 6.50 美元，週日昇至 73 美元的高點。在他就職幾個小時後，它跌破了 40 美元。據 CoinGecko 稱，週一其市值約為 76 億美元。

Former President Donald Trump has launched a cryptocurrency coin that is being closely watched by experts as its value fluctuates wildly in the opening days of trading.

前總統唐納德·川普推出了一種加密貨幣，由於其價值在開市交易日劇烈波動，因此受到專家的密切關注。

The official "meme coin," known as $TRUMP, was launched on Friday for nearly $6.50 and rose to a high of $73 on Sunday. But hours after his inauguration, it had dropped below $40. Its market cap on Monday was about $7.6 billion, according to CoinGecko.

First lady Melania Trump on Sunday also launched a meme coin, $MELANIA, at nearly $7. That coin also jumped in early trading, nudging above $13 at its height, before dropping below $5 as of Monday afternoon, according to CoinGecko.

第一夫人梅蘭妮亞川普週日也推出了一款迷因幣 $MELANIA，價格接近 7 美元。根據 CoinGecko 的數據，該代幣在早盤交易中也出現上漲，最高點升至 13 美元以上，然後截至週一下午跌破 5 美元。

"My NEW Official Trump Meme is HERE! It's time to celebrate everything we stand for: WINNING!," Trump wrote in a post on X, telling supporters to "Have Fun!"

「我的新官方川普表情包來了！是時候慶祝我們所代表的一切了：勝利！」川普在 X 上的一篇貼文中寫道，並告訴支持者“玩得開心！”

Here is what you should know about the coins and cryptocurrency's future under the Trump administration.

以下是您應該了解的關於川普政府領導下的硬幣和加密貨幣的未來的資訊。

What is a meme coin?

什麼是模因幣？

A meme coin is a type of cryptocurrency that is inspired by a meme or another internet trend. One of the most well known is dogecoin, which was created as a joke and features a dog as its mascot. It became popular in 2013 and again in 2021.

模因幣是一種受模因或其他網路趨勢啟發的加密貨幣。其中最著名的是狗狗幣，它是作為一個笑話而創建的，並以狗為吉祥物。它於 2013 年開始流行，並於 2021 年再次流行。

Cryptocurrencies are unpredictable, volatile, and have been exploited by criminals to engage in fraud.

加密貨幣具有不可預測性、波動性，並且已被犯罪分子利用進行詐欺。

The cryptocurrency exchange FTX collapsed in 2022 and its founder, Sam Bankman-Fried was sentenced to 25 years in prison for his crimes.

加密貨幣交易所 FTX 於 2022 年倒閉，其創始人 Sam Bankman-Fried 因其罪行被判處 25 年監禁。

Trump's meme coin is marketed with an image of the president holding up his fist with the words, "FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT" – a phrase he has dubbed "a battle cry" after surviving an assassination attempt in July 2024. The first lady's coin features a black and white photo of Melania smiling with her hands clasped in front of her face.

川普的迷因硬幣的營銷形像是總統舉起拳頭，上面寫著「FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT」——他在2024 年7 月的一次暗殺企圖中倖存後將這句話稱為「戰鬥口號」。第一夫人的硬幣上有一個梅蘭妮亞雙手緊握在臉前微笑的黑白照片。

What is crypto's future under the new Trump administration?

在川普新政府領導下，加密貨幣的未來是什麼？

In the past, Trump has criticized cryptocurrency, calling it a "scam" and "potentially a disaster waiting to happen" during an interview with FOX Business in 2021. But he has since embraced the sector and on the campaign trail promised to make the U.S. "the crypto capital of the planet" by ending previous enforcement actions and bringing in friendly regulators.

過去，川普在2021 年接受福克斯商業頻道採訪時批評過加密貨幣，稱其為「騙局」和「可能是一場即將發生的災難」。承諾讓美國通過結束之前的執法行動並引入友好的監管機構，「地球的加密之都」。

The Trump family also has financial interests in World Liberty Financial, a crypto-related company.

川普家族也擁有加密貨幣相關公司 World Liberty Financial 的經濟利益。

There have been questions surrounding Trump's meme coin and potential conflicts of interest given that Trump has promised to promote the crypto industry as president.

鑑於川普承諾作為總統促進加密貨幣產業，圍繞川普的迷因幣和潛在的利益衝突一直存在疑問。

Trump has chosen Paul Atkins, former U.S. Securities and Exchange Commissioner and CEO of a consulting firm with crypto clients to lead the SEC. Atkins is also a supporter of cryptocurrencies and has expressed reservations about the SEC's enforcement actions against the domestic crypto industry. David Sacks, a venture capitalist, has also been appointed by Trump as the country's first crypto and artificial intelligence czar.

川普選擇前美國證券交易委員會委員、一家擁有加密貨幣客戶的諮詢公司執行長 Paul Atkins 領導 SEC。阿特金斯也是加密貨幣的支持者，並對 SEC 針對國內加密行業的執法行動表示保留。創投家戴維·薩克斯(David Sacks)也被川普任命為美國首位加密貨幣和人工智慧沙皇。

A GOP-controlled Congress could also help bolster cryptocurrency. Republican Arkansas Rep. French Hill, chair of the House Financial Services Committee, has pushed for measures to help develop crypto. But there is skepticism about congressional warmth toward cryptocurrency, including from digital assets expert Carol Alexander, who called it "a step in the wrong direction."

共和黨控制的國會也可以幫助支持加密貨幣。眾議院金融服務委員會主席、阿肯色州共和黨眾議員弗倫奇·希爾(French Hill)已推動採取措施幫助開發加密貨幣。但人們對國會對加密貨幣的熱情表示懷疑，其中包括數位資產專家卡羅爾·亞歷山大(Carol Alexander)，她稱這是「朝著錯誤方向邁出的一步」。

"We have to regulate the space," Alexander, a professor at the University of Sussex, previously told NPR.

薩塞克斯大學教授亞歷山大此前對美國國家公共廣播電台表示：“我們必須規範這個空間。”

Preston Byrne, a cryptocurrency lawyer, said Trump's involvement in cryptocurrency raises legal questions and could have a negative impact if it is not successful.

加密貨幣律師普雷斯頓伯恩(Preston Byrne)表示，川普涉足加密貨幣會引發法律問題，如果不成功，可能會產生負面影響。

"Trump himself will also have to contend with the fact that his political fortunes will be tied to an asset that the market, and not the man, controls," Byrne wrote in a post on Sunday. "If $TRUMP crashes it might affect his own political clout in DC."

伯恩在周日的一篇貼文中寫道：“川普本人也必須面對這樣一個事實，即他的政治命運將與市場而非個人控制的資產掛鉤。” “如果川普崩盤，可能會影響他在華盛頓的政治影響力。”
