特朗普和哈里斯发出支持信号，比特币创历史新高，山寨币大涨

许多产品的价格都在显着上涨，有时会达到或超过两位数的百分比涨幅。实用代币 Aptos (APT 3.98%) 上涨略高于 10%。

Altcoins were trading briskly and healthily on Tuesday, as news emerged that the leading and foundational cryptocurrency was teasing a fresh all-time high.

周二，随着有消息称这种领先的基础加密货币正在创下新的历史新高，山寨币的交易活跃而健康。

The prices of several were rising noticeably, at times edging into or exceeding double-digit percentage gains. Utility token Aptos (APT 3.98%) was up by slightly over 10%. Fellow utility crypto Chainlink (LINK 4.46%) was enjoying a more than 5% gain, ditto for meme token Shiba Inu (SHIB 4.92%). Slightly behind its peers was Bitcoin Cash (BCH 0.34%), with a sub-5% rise.

一些产品的价格明显上涨，有时接近或超过两位数的百分比涨幅。实用代币 Aptos (APT 3.98%) 上涨略高于 10%。公用事业加密货币 Chainlink (LINK 4.46%) 的涨幅超过 5%，meme 代币 Shiba Inu (SHIB 4.92%) 也是如此。比特币现金（BCH 0.34%）略落后于同行，涨幅低于 5%。

Politics of crypto

加密政治

Unless there is some specific proprietary news that swims against the tide of that day's general sentiment on its fortunes, the cryptoverse tends to trade in line with its unquestioned leader, Bitcoin (BTC 1.78%).

除非有一些特定的专有新闻与当天对其命运的总体情绪背道而驰，否则加密世界的交易往往与其无可争议的领导者比特币（BTC 1.78％）一致。

Happily for holders of altcoins, Bitcoin was doing gangbusters on the second trading day of the week. The previous night, its price crossed what market wags like to call an "important psychological barrier," -- i.e., a nice round number -- in this case, $70,000. It kept going, to the point where it was trading at just under $72,400 early Tuesday evening. That's barely over $1,000 shy of its all-time high; keep in mind that it's been in existence since 2009.

对于山寨币持有者来说，令人高兴的是，比特币在本周的第二个交易日表现强劲。前一天晚上，它的价格突破了市场人士所谓的“重要心理障碍”——即一个不错的整数——在本例中为 70,000 美元。它继续上涨，直到周二晚间早些时候交易价格略低于 72,400 美元。这距离历史最高点仅差 1,000 多美元；请记住，它自 2009 年以来就已存在。

Why the rush into Bitcoin and, consequently, altcoins? Lately, there seems to be a significant trend driving this. It's the market's increasing belief that both Donald Trump and Kamala Harris will support the crypto industry if elected. It's rare that an industry lands in such a position; usually, it counts on either benefiting from laissez-faire policies typical of Republicans or suffering from the increased regulatory scrutiny stereotypical of Democrats.

为什么人们热衷于比特币以及山寨币？最近，似乎有一个显着的趋势推动了这一趋势。市场越来越相信唐纳德·特朗普和卡马拉·哈里斯如果当选都会支持加密货币行业。一个行业处于这样的地位是很少见的。通常，它指望要么受益于共和党典型的自由放任政策，要么遭受民主党典型的加强监管审查。

Yet both presidential aspirants have signaled quite strongly that they're supportive of digital coins and tokens.

然而，两位总统候选人都强烈表示他们支持数字硬币和代币。

Of the two individuals, Trump is the more overt about this -- he's even drafted a noted crypto lover, Tesla, as a big player in his campaign, and vice-presidential candidate J.D. Vance is an active investor and advocate. Meanwhile, his opponent even held a Crypto4Harris rally, although she personally did not appear (Senate majority leader Chuck Schumer attended in her stead).

在这两个人中，特朗普对此表现得更为公开——他甚至任命了著名的加密货币爱好者特斯拉作为竞选活动的重要参与者，而副总统候选人 JD Vance 则是一位积极的投资者和倡导者。与此同时，他的对手甚至举行了 Crypto4Harris 集会，尽管她本人没有出席（参议院多数党领袖查克·舒默代替她出席）。

Talk is cheap

说话很便宜

This affects Bitcoin directly, as it continues to be a proxy for cryptocurrencies generally. Yet a crypto-friendly policy is sure to benefit all manner of coins and tokens, hence the bullishness for many flavors of coins and tokens lately.

这直接影响比特币，因为它仍然是加密货币的代表。然而，对加密货币友好的政策肯定会让各种硬币和代币受益，因此最近许多种类的硬币和代币都被看好。

However, investors shouldn't take for granted that either Trump or Harris will be lenient on crypto assets. Scandals have erupted in the sector in the recent past, and it's likely more will occur before long. When that happens many people call for stricter oversight, and regulators have indicated that they're willing to aid in that effort.

然而，投资者不应想当然地认为特朗普或哈里斯会对加密资产采取宽容态度。该行业最近爆发了丑闻，而且不久之后可能还会发生更多丑闻。当这种情况发生时，许多人要求加强监管，监管机构也表示愿意提供帮助。
