川普的 Meme 幣特技削弱了加密貨幣黨，產業等待他的監管舉措

該行業感到拜登政府的目標不公平，並花費巨資幫助川普獲勝，因此渴望新總統的幫助，使加密貨幣成為主流金融體系的更大組成部分。

President Donald Trump’s standing in the cryptocurrency industry appeared to take a hit Saturday after he and his wife unveiled their own meme coins, a move that critics said looked like an unseemly cash grab and could harm an effort to legitimize digital assets.

週六，唐納德·特朗普總統和他的妻子推出了自己的模因幣後，他在加密貨幣行業的地位似乎受到了打擊，批評者稱此舉看起來像是一種不體面的搶錢行為，可能損害數位資產合法化的努力。

The industry, which felt unfairly targeted by the Biden administration and spent heavily to help Trump win, is looking to the new president for help making crypto a bigger part of the mainstream financial system. Trump has promised a lighter regulatory touch and picked pro-crypto officials for key government positions.

該行業感到拜登政府的目標不公平，並花費巨資幫助川普獲勝，現在正在尋求新總統的幫助，使加密貨幣成為主流金融體系的更大組成部分。川普承諾放鬆監管，並挑選支持加密貨幣的官員擔任關鍵政府職位。

The price of bitcoin and other digital assets has soared since Trump won. A lavish “Crypto Ball” Friday ahead of Trump's inauguration sold tickets for thousands of dollars and featured a performance by the rapper Snoop Dogg.

自從川普獲勝以來，比特幣和其他數位資產的價格飆升。週五，川普就職典禮前舉行的一場奢華的「加密舞會」門票售價高達數千美元，並有饒舌歌手史努比狗狗的表演。

But as that party was still underway, Trump announced on social media he was offering his very own cryptocurrency in the form of a meme coin. The move soured the mood for many in the crypto community.

但當派對仍在進行時，川普在社群媒體上宣布，他將以迷因幣的形式提供自己的加密貨幣。此舉讓加密社群許多人的情緒惡化。

"I really was kind of bummed out when I saw it,” said Tom Schmidt, a partner at a crypto venture capital firm Dragonfly. “It just felt very grifty and cheap.”

加密風險投資公司 Dragonfly 的合夥人湯姆·施密特 (Tom Schmidt) 表示：“當我看到它時，我真的有點沮喪。它感覺非常狡猾和廉價。”

Some crypto fans even joked on social media they missed Gary Gensler, the recently departed chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission who was viewed as the Biden administration’s chief crypto antagonist thanks to the SEC's aggressive enforcement actions against crypto companies.

一些加密貨幣粉絲甚至在社交媒體上開玩笑說，他們想念最近離任的美國證券交易委員會主席加里·詹斯勒(Gary Gensler)，由於美國證券交易委員會對加密貨幣公司採取了積極的執法行動，他被視為拜登政府的主要加密貨幣對手。

Meme coins are among the wilder and more unregulated corners of the crypto universe. They often start as a joke with no real value but can surge in price if enough people are willing to buy them. Popular meme coins include Dogecoin, whose mascot is a dog, and Fartcoin. Scammers have tried to pump up the price of certain meme coins before dumping them on unsavvy investors.

Meme 幣是加密世界中最狂野、更不受監管的角落之一。它們通常只是一個玩笑，沒有任何實際價值，但如果有足夠多的人願意購買，價格可能會飆升。流行的模因幣包括吉祥物是狗的狗狗幣和放屁幣。詐騙者試圖抬高某些迷因幣的價格，然後將其拋售給不精明的投資者。

Some crypto enthusiasts hailed the Trump meme coin’s release and eager buyers drove up the price of the coin to above $70 each. The price fell dramatically on Sunday after First Lady Melania Trump announced the launch of her own meme coin, which also saw an initial price spike followed by a large fall. As of Tuesday afternoon, Trump’s meme coin was trading at about $45 while the Melania meme coin was at about $4.

一些加密貨幣愛好者對川普迷因硬幣的發布表示歡迎，而熱切的買家將硬幣的價格推高至每枚 70 美元以上。在第一夫人梅蘭妮亞·川普宣布推出自己的迷因幣後，週日價格大幅下跌，該幣的價格最初也出現飆升，隨後大幅下跌。截至週二下午，川普的迷因幣交易價格約為 45 美元，而梅蘭妮亞迷因幣的交易價格約為 4 美元。

Trump named SEC Commissioner Mark Uyeda as the agency's acting chief Tuesday and Uyeda quickly announced he was launching a new crypto task force to set the SEC on a “sensible regulatory path.” Trump has promised to create a U.S. bitcoin stockpile and enact industry-friendly rules that make it easier for crypto companies to access the broader financial market.

週二，川普任命 SEC 專員 Mark Uyeda 為該機構代理負責人，Uyeda 很快宣布他將成立一個新的加密貨幣工作組，以使 SEC 走上「明智的監管道路」。川普承諾建立美國比特幣儲備，並制定有利於該行業的規則，使加密貨幣公司更容易進入更廣泛的金融市場。

But by associating himself so closely with meme coins, some crypto fans worry that Trump hurts his ability to enact reforms.

但由於川普將自己與迷因幣如此緊密地聯繫在一起，一些加密貨幣粉絲擔心川普會損害他實施改革的能力。

“Now, on the cusp of getting some liberalization of crypto regulations in this country, the main thing people are thinking about crypto is, “Oh, it’s just a casino for these meme coins,’” said Nic Carter, a Trump supporter and partner at the crypto investment firm Castle Island Ventures. “It does the opposite of validating us, it makes it look completely unserious.”

川普的支持者兼合夥人尼克卡特(Nic Carter) 表示：「現在，在這個國家加密貨幣監管即將放開的時候，人們對加密貨幣的主要想法是，'哦，這只是這些模因幣的賭場。 “這與驗證我們相反，它讓它看起來完全不嚴肅。”

The sale of Trump meme coins was organized by CIC Digital, an affiliate of the Trump Organization. In promoting the meme coin, Trump told supporters to “Have Fun!” The website selling the tokens says they are meant as expressions of support and not an investment opportunity. The coin’s website said 200 million Trump meme coins are currently available, with plans to issue 1 billion over the next three years.

川普模因幣的銷售是由川普組織的附屬機構 CIC Digital 組織的。在推廣模因硬幣時，川普告訴支持者“玩得開心！”銷售代幣的網站表示，它們是為了表達支持，而不是投資機會。該幣的網站稱，目前有 2 億枚川普表情包硬幣，計劃在未來三年內發行 10 億枚。

The Trump family business recently released an ethics agreement that prohibits Trump from “day-to-day” decision making at the Trump Organization when he’s president and limits financial information about the business shared with him.

川普家族企業最近發布了一項道德協議，禁止川普在擔任總統期間參與川普集團的「日常」決策，並限制與他分享有關該企業的財務資訊。

The president and first lady were not the only ones promoting new cryptocurrencies around the inauguration. Lorenzo Sewell, the Michigan pastor who gave a spirited inaugural invocation Monday, announced the launch of a new coin named after him, which he said would be used to benefit his church.

總統和第一夫人並不是唯一在就職典禮期間推廣新加密貨幣的人。週一，密西根州牧師洛倫佐·休厄爾(Lorenzo Sewell) 舉行了一場熱情洋溢的就職典禮，他宣布推出一種以他的名字命名的新硬幣，他說這將用於造福他的教會。

“I need you to do me a favor right now, I need to you to go buy the official Lorenzo Sewell coin,” Sewell said in a video post on social media.

「我現在需要你幫我一個忙，我需要你去購買洛倫佐·休厄爾官方硬幣，」休厄爾在社交媒體上的視頻帖子中說道。
