特朗普的新加密保護區將包括比特幣和以太坊

此舉是在上週五舉行的首次白宮加密峰會之前進行的，這代表了美國政策的相當大的轉變。

Following his Sunday announcement, values of the named currencies, including Bitcoin, soared, after what has been a weeks-long slump.

在周日宣布這一消息之後，包括比特幣在內的指定貨幣的價值在長達數週的低迷之後飆升。

The move comes ahead of a first-ever White House Crypto Summit on Friday and marks a stark shift in US policy. Former President Joe Biden’s administration cracked down on the industry because of suspicions of fraudulent transactions. Trump himself was a crypto skeptic during his first term as president. At the time, he had called Bitcoin – the largest cryptocurrency – a “scam”.

此舉是在周五首次在白宮加密峰會上進行的，這標誌著美國政策的明顯轉變。前總統喬·拜登（Joe Biden）的政府由於懷疑欺詐性交易而對行業進行了鎮壓。特朗普本人在擔任總統的第一個任期中是加密貨幣懷疑論者。當時，他稱比特幣（最大的加密貨幣）為“騙局”。

In his Sunday announcement, though, Trump slammed the Biden-era policies, calling them “corrupt”.

不過，在周日的宣布中，特朗普抨擊了拜登時代的政策，稱其為“腐敗”。

“This corrupt & incompetent administration has been attacking crypto, but they’ll never succeed. We are ALL IN on crypto. Smaller currencies like XRP, Cardano & Solana will form part of the new national crypto stockpiles. We will also be building up our holdings of BTC, ETH & smaller coins. The US is becoming a crypto powerhouse!,” Trump stated in a post on X, formerly Twitter.

“這個腐敗和無能的政府一直在攻擊加密貨幣，但他們永遠不會成功。我們都在加密貨幣上。 XRP，Cardano和Solana等較小的貨幣將構成新的國家加密儲備。我們還將建立我們的BTC，ETH和較小硬幣的股份。特朗普在X上的帖子（以前是Twitter）上說。

He added: “And obviously, BTC and ETH, the two largest, will be at the heart of the Reserve. We will be making sure the US is the crypto capital of the world. We are making America great again!”

他補充說：“顯然，兩個最大的BTC和ETH將是保護區的核心。我們將確保美國是世界的加密首都。我們正在使美國再次偉大！”

這是您需要了解的有關新的美國加密保護區：

In his posts on Sunday, Trump initially mentioned that smaller currencies – XRP, Cardano, and Solana – would form part of the new national crypto stockpiles.

特朗普在周日的帖子中最初提到，XRP，Cardano和Solana的較小貨幣將成為新的國家加密貨幣庫存的一部分。

However, about an hour later, the president in a separate post said “and obviously, BTC and ETH…will be at the heart of the Reserve,” referring to Bitcoin and Ethereum, the top two cryptocurrencies by market value.

但是，大約一個小時後，總統在另一篇文章中說：“顯然，BTC和ETH……將是預備役的核心”，指比特幣和以太坊，這是市場價值的前兩名加密貨幣。

Markets immediately reacted favourably to the post with Cardano jumping about 60 percent to $1.25 from a previous $0.65, according to Coinbase crypto exchange – although by Monday it had again settled to about $0.97. Solana increased from about $150 to $170 and XRP jumped from $2.25 to $3, both currencies surging at rates of about 12 and 20 percent, respectively.

根據Coinbase Crypto Exchange的數據，從前的0.65美元，市場立即對該職位做出了好評，Cardano躍升了約60％，至1.25美元，儘管到了周一，它再次達到了約0.97美元。 Solana從大約150美元增加到170美元，XRP從2.25美元躍升至3美元，兩種貨幣分別以約12％和20％的速度飆升。

Meanwhile, Bitcoin and Ethereum gained more than 10 percent, with Bitcoin reaching $94,000 from a previous $86,000.

同時，比特幣和以太坊上漲了10％以上，比特幣從前的86,000美元達到94,000美元。

During his campaign, Trump courted the crypto industry and promised aggressive measures in support of the currencies once in power. Following his election win in November, the cryptocurrency market witnessed unprecedented surges – Bitcoin, for example, reached an all-time high of $109,000. However, the market slowed in the weeks after.

在他的競選期間，特朗普向加密貨幣產業求婚，並承諾採取積極的措施，以支持一旦掌權的貨幣。在11月的選舉獲勝之後，加密貨幣市場見證了前所未有的衝浪 - 例如，比特幣達到了109,000美元的歷史最高點。但是，在後幾週內，市場放緩。

Trump and First Lady Melania Trump in January launched their own meme coins – digital currencies inspired by viral trends but that lack the financial or technological backing of actual cryptocurrencies.

特朗普和第一夫人梅拉尼亞·特朗普（Melania Trump）在一月份發起了自己的模因硬幣 - 受病毒趨勢啟發的數字貨幣，但缺乏實際加密貨幣的財務或技術支持。

Elon Musk, who leads Trump’s government efficiency drive, also frequently promotes cryptocurrencies on his social media network X (previously Twitter).

領導特朗普政府效率推動力的埃隆·馬斯克（Elon Musk）也經常在其社交媒體網絡X（以前的Twitter）上促進加密貨幣。

Owning digital currencies like Bitcoin is increasingly seen by governments as an alternative store of value, such as gold, and as a hedge against inflation. But some experts say the crypto market is highly volatile and witnesses price swings making it a risky bet as an alternative store of value — especially when compared against gold.

政府越來越多地將擁有比特幣之類的數字貨幣視為諸如黃金之類的替代價值存儲，也是抵制通貨膨脹的對沖。但是一些專家說，加密貨幣市場高度波動，目擊者的價格波動使其成為危險的賭注，這是一種價值的替代存儲，尤其是與黃金相比。

Many countries that hold digital currencies seized in criminal investigations would be able to use cryptocurrencies as legal tender.

許多持有在刑事調查中扣押的數字貨幣的國家都可以將加密貨幣作為法定貨幣。

Switzerland plans to decide on crypto reserves after a public referendum, while Brazil, Germany, Hong Kong, Poland and Russia are considering or taking steps to build them.

瑞士計劃在公開公投後決定加密儲備金，而巴西，德國，香港，波蘭和俄羅斯正在考慮或採取措施建造它們。

The US government currently has the largest cryptocurrency holding of any country — 200,000 Bitcoin — and Trump’s stance is seen as increasingly lending further credibility to different coins. If plans for the US crypto reserve go forward, more countries will likely wade into the game because of the US’s outsized influence as the world’s largest economy.

美國政府目前擁有任何國家最大的加密貨幣（200,000比特幣），而特朗普的立場被認為是對不同硬幣的進一步信譽。如果美國加密保護區的計劃繼續前進，則由於美國作為世界上最大的經濟體的巨大影響力，可能會有更多的國家進入遊戲。

Trump’s crypto push will position America ahead of the curve, giving it considerable sway over how international crypto regulations emerge later on.

特朗普的加密推動將使美國在曲線前面的位置，這使它對國際加密法規後來的出現方式進行了巨大影響。

And if the US government, through a reserve, holds a substantial chunk of the global volume of crypto tokens, it would be in a position to reduce the price volatilty curtentyluy associated with these digital currencies.

而且，如果美國政府通過儲備金擁有大量全球加密代幣量的大部分，那麼它將可以降低與這些數字貨幣相關的價格揮發的價格。

In July 2024, Republican Senator Cynthia Lummis introduced a Bitcoin Act in Congress, which mandated all government-held Bitcoin to be transferred to the US Treasury and pushed for the establishment of a crypto reserve. Lummis also said such a reserve would help the US manage its current Bitcoin holdings in a transparent manner.

2024年7月，共和黨參議員辛西婭·盧米斯（Cynthia Lummis）在國會提出了一項比特幣法案，該法案要求所有政府擁有的比特幣轉移到美國財政部，並推動建立加密貨幣儲備。盧米斯還表示，這樣的儲備將幫助美國以透明的方式管理其當前的比特幣持有量。

“Bitcoin is transforming not only our country but the world and becoming the first developed nation to use Bitcoin as a savings technology secures our position as a global leader in financial innovation,” she said.

她說：“比特幣不僅在改變我們的國家，而且正在改變世界，並成為第一個使用比特幣作為儲蓄技術的發達國家，確保了我們作為金融創新的全球領導者的地位。”

The bill is still in consideration.

該法案仍在考慮。

The only other strategic or emergency reserves the US owns are its huge oil stocks, known as the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR), in Louisiana and Texas.
