川普和梅蘭妮亞推出競爭對手迷因幣，重新點燃了對加密貨幣友善立場的希望

根據英國《金融時報》報道，唐納德·川普和梅拉尼婭·川普推出了競爭對手的迷因幣，在加密貨幣市場引發旋風，因為對新政府加密貨幣政策的猜測加劇了人們的興奮。

Donald and Melania Trump have launched rival memecoins, kicking off a whirlwind in the cryptocurrency market as speculation about the new administration’s crypto policies fuels excitement, but the rapid rise and fall of the tokens’ values have drawn criticism, sparking concerns about market manipulation and financial risks for supporters.

唐納德·川普和梅拉尼婭·川普推出了競爭對手的迷因幣，在加密貨幣市場掀起旋風，因為對新政府加密貨幣政策的猜測加劇了人們的興奮，但代幣價值的快速上漲和下跌招致了批評，引發了對市場操縱和金融危機的擔憂。

The cryptocurrency, $TRUMP, debuted on Trump's Truth Social platform on Friday evening, quickly skyrocketing from $6 to a peak of $75 per coin, pushing its market cap to over $14 billion, according to Coinbase data. However, the coin's momentum faltered on Sunday when Melania Trump unveiled her own memecoin, $MELANIA, which quickly gained a market cap of $8.5 billion. The announcement caused $TRUMP to lose nearly half its value, wiping out approximately $7 billion in market cap before it recovered some losses.

根據 Coinbase 的數據，加密貨幣 $TRUMP 於週五晚間在川普的 Truth Social 平台上首次亮相，價格迅速從每枚 6 美元飆升至 75 美元的峰值，將其市值推至超過 140 億美元。然而，週日，當梅拉尼婭·川普(Melania Trump)推出了她自己的模因幣$MELANIA時，該幣的勢頭動搖了，該幣的市值很快就達到了85億美元。這一消息導致 $TRUMP 損失了近一半的價值，在恢復部分損失之前蒸發了約 70 億美元的市值。

Memecoins, often launched as industry in-jokes or viral tokens with no underlying business model, have become a speculative sensation in the crypto market. The launch of $TRUMP marks one of the largest and fastest-growing memecoin debuts in history. “It gives legitimacy to these assets and invites every celebrity to come back in and start promoting,” said Jonathan Bixby, a crypto entrepreneur, speaking to the FT. “These next couple of months are going to be wild.”

Memecoins 通常作為行業笑話或病毒式代幣推出，沒有潛在的商業模式，但已成為加密貨幣市場的投機熱點。 $TRUMP 的推出標誌著史上規模最大、成長最快的迷因幣首次亮相之一。加密貨幣企業家喬納森·比克斯比 (Jonathan Bixby) 在接受英國《金融時報》採訪時表示：“它賦予了這些資產合法性，並邀請每位名人回歸並開始推廣。” “接下來的幾個月將會很瘋狂。”

Despite the buzz, many in the crypto industry have raised red flags. Critics argue that Trump's timing and control of 80% of $TRUMP tokens through his family's business ties are exploitative. Venture capitalist Nick Tomaino labeled the launch “predatory,” warning that the value of the coin's insider-held tokens, which will unlock over the next three to 12 months, could hurt investors during Trump's term.

儘管引起了熱議，但加密行業的許多人都提出了危險信號。批評者認為，川普透過其家族的商業關係選擇時機並控制 80% 的 $TRUMP 代幣是剝削性的。風險投資家Nick Tomaino 將此次發行稱為“掠奪性”，並警告稱，該代幣的內部持有代幣將在未來3 至12 個月內解鎖，其價值可能會在川普任期內損害投資者的利益。

Trump's return to power has reignited hopes that the administration will adopt a crypto-friendly stance, a shift from his previous skepticism about digital assets. The $TRUMP coin's launch was accompanied by a Washington gala celebrating Trump's inauguration, attended by crypto executives and politicians. Major exchanges like Binance, Coinbase, and Kraken have since announced plans to list the Trump token, signaling growing industry interest in the memecoin phenomenon.

川普的重新掌權重新燃起了人們的希望，政府將採取對加密貨幣友好的立場，一改他先前對數位資產的懷疑態度。川普幣的推出伴隨著華盛頓慶祝川普就職典禮的盛會，加密貨幣高層和政界人士出席了盛會。此後，Binance、Coinbase 和 Kraken 等主要交易所都宣布了列出川普代幣的計劃，這表明行業對 memecoin 現象的興趣日益濃厚。

The Trump family's deeper involvement in cryptocurrency extends beyond $TRUMP. Trump and his sons have been promoting World Liberty Financial, a crypto venture led by his business partners, and his social media company reportedly sought to acquire Bakkt, a cryptocurrency trading venue.

川普家族對加密貨幣的深入參與超出了 $TRUMP 的範圍。川普和他的兒子們一直在推廣由他的商業夥伴領導的加密貨幣企業 World Liberty Financial，據報道，他的社群媒體公司正在尋求收購加密貨幣交易平台 Bakkt。

Melania's $MELANIA token, described as a “digital collectible” intended to embody her values, also highlights the family's expanding footprint in the sector. While it lacks investment utility, its rapid rise underscores the speculative nature of memecoin markets.

梅蘭妮亞的 $MELANIA 代幣被描述為“數位收藏品”，旨在體現她的價值觀，也凸顯了該家族在該領域不斷擴大的足跡。雖然它缺乏投資效用，但其快速崛起凸顯了迷因幣市場的投機性質。

The launch has sparked division among industry figures. Trump's former communications director, Anthony Scaramucci, slammed the memecoin frenzy as damaging to the sector, writing on X, “The Trump memecoin stuff is bad for the [crypto] industry. Don’t delude yourself.”

該產品的推出引發了業界人士的分歧。川普的前通訊總監安東尼·斯卡拉穆奇（Anthony Scaramucci）抨擊迷因幣狂熱對該行業造成損害，他在X 上寫道：「川普模因幣的東西對（加密）行業不利。別再欺騙自己了。

Still, proponents argue that such high-profile launches could attract new participants and expand the market’s reach. For now, $TRUMP and $MELANIA have become the focal point of the “banana zone,” a crypto trading term for extreme price volatility.

儘管如此，支持者認為，如此高調的發布可以吸引新的參與者並擴大市場範圍。目前，$TRUMP 和 $MELANIA 已成為「香蕉區」的焦點，「香蕉區」是一個代表極端價格波動的加密貨幣交易術語。
