川普：只是另一個迷因硬幣還是「產業的骯髒」？

加密貨幣的大規模政治捕獲——這曾經被認為是關於金錢和國家的分離——對任何人來說都是令人作嘔的，例如已經參與這個遊戲五年多的 Higashi。

The CEO of Japanese bitcoin company, Diamond Hands, has slammed TrumpCoin, calling it a testament to 'the sh*ttiness of this industry.'

日本比特幣公司 Diamond Hands 的執行長猛烈抨擊 TrumpCoin，稱其證明了「這個行業的骯髒」。

Koji Higashi posted on X Sunday that “The fact that we have to take TrumpCoin seriously seems to epitomize the sh*ttiness of this industry.” He was referring to the new meme coin from the incumbent figurehead leader, and said it was actually turning former bitcoin supporters away from BTC.

Koji Higashi 在 X Sunday 上發文稱，“我們必須認真對待 TrumpCoin 的事實似乎集中體現了這個行業的骯髒。”他指的是現任傀儡領導人的新迷因硬幣，並表示這實際上正在使前比特幣支持者遠離 BTC。

Koji Higashi’s company, Diamond Hands, is also facing some issues, having recently announced a pivot away from their Lightning Network community node. The perpetually broken protocol that’s always just 2 years away from being ready doesn’t seem to be doing them any favors. Still, the Japanese entrepreneur lamented and mentioned “despair” in an X post about the latest meme coin, Official Trump.

Koji Higashi 的公司 Diamond Hands 也面臨一些問題，最近宣布放棄閃電網路社群節點。永遠被打破的協議總是距離準備好只有兩年，但這似乎並沒有為他們帶來任何好處。儘管如此，這位日本企業家在一篇關於最新模因幣“官方川普”的 X 帖子中感嘆並提到了“絕望”。

Is TRUMP just another meme coin or ‘The sh*ttiness of the industry’?

川普只是另一個迷因硬幣還是「這個行業的骯髒」？

Indeed, the massive political capture of crypto — that was once supposed to be about separation of money and state —is nauseating to anyone, like Higashi, who’s been in the game more than five years. But there is no rationality to manipulated markets. Trump, who has promised to free Silk Road darknet marketplace founder Ross Ulbricht “on day one” (amongst a plethora of other assurances) has now launched a website for his own premined crypto just before being stepping into his White House role once again, tomorrow.

事實上，對加密貨幣的大規模政治捕獲——這曾經被認為是關於金錢和國家的分離——對任何人來說都是令人作嘔的，例如已經參與這個遊戲五年多的 Higashi。但操縱市場是沒有理性的。川普曾承諾「第一天」就釋放絲路暗網市場創始人羅斯·烏布利希（Ross Ulbricht）（以及眾多其他保證），現在在明天再次踏入白宮崗位之前，為他自己的預開採加密貨幣推出了一個網站。

The website for Trump’s stunt amusingly reads that the coin has nothing to do with politics. It further lays out the premined nature of the coin in small print at the bottom of the page: “CIC Digital LLC, an affiliate of The Trump Organization, and Fight Fight Fight LLC collectively own 80% of the Trump Cards, subject to a 3-year unlocking schedule.”

川普的特技網站有趣地寫道，這枚硬幣與政治無關。它在頁面底部以小字進一步列出了該代幣的預開採性質：「川普組織的附屬公司 CIC Digital LLC 和 Fight Fight Fight LLC 共同擁有 80% 的川普卡，但須遵守 3年解鎖時間表。

Higashi noted in another X post that some people who used to support bitcoin are now turning away due to this meme coin. He also stated that “the people who originally got interested in Bitcoin got into it because they didn’t like this kind of thing, so it’s like a polar opposite world.”

Higashi 在另一篇 X 貼文中指出，一些曾經支持比特幣的人現在因為這種迷因硬幣而轉身離開。他還表示，“最初對比特幣感興趣的人是因為不喜歡這種東西才進入比特幣的，所以這就像是一個截然相反的世界。”

However, the coin’s team says on his self-congratulatory site, “… President Trump showed the world what a LEADER is made of. His strength and courage ignited a movement becoming the most memorable meme of the century.” Higashi’s running reflections on X do raise interesting questions in light of such bold, all-caps claims.

然而，該硬幣的團隊在他的自我祝賀網站上表示，「…川普總統向世界展示了領導者的組成。他的力量和勇氣點燃了一場運動，成為本世紀最令人難忘的模因。鑑於如此大膽、全大寫的主張，東對 X 的持續反思確實提出了有趣的問題。

Advocates of Satoshi Nakamoto’s original vision of peer-to-peer electronic cash without the need of a financial institution, those who felt the sting of past broken political promises (such as ‘locking up’ Hillary Clinton), and the kids in Gaza who will have to deal with Trump’s support of a life-destroying war where they live, might see the furore over this coin as tragically insulting more than “bullish.” Or, in Higashi’s own words: “There is a sense of despair.”

中本聰最初設想的無需金融機構的點對點電子現金的擁護者，那些因過去違背的政治承諾（例如“鎖定”希拉里·克林頓）而感到刺痛的人，以及加沙的孩子們不得不應對特朗普對他們所居住的毀滅生命的戰爭的支持，他們可能會認為對這枚硬幣的憤怒不僅僅是“看漲”，更是一種悲劇性的侮辱。或者，用東自己的話說：“有一種絕望感。”
