比特币昨天下跌，因为交易员警告称，由于比特币和以太衍生品的未平仓合约大量到期，未来一天市场可能会出现波动。

即使加密货币库存商 MicroStrategy 计划发行更多股票，此举也使其能够购买更多代币。

Bitcoin fell sharply on Friday as traders warned that markets could turn volatile in the coming day on massive expiries of open interest in bitcoin and ether derivatives.

比特币周五大幅下跌，交易员警告称，由于比特币和以太衍生品的未平仓合约大量到期，市场可能在未来一天变得波动。

The digital asset dropped as much as 3.2 percent to US$95,143 (HK$741,253) by 7.12am in New York on Friday. It was last down around 3 percent at US$95,420.

截至周五上午 7 点 12 分，该数字资产在纽约下跌 3.2%，至 95,143 美元（741,253 港元）。最后下跌约 3%，至 95,420 美元。

This came even with cryptocurrency stockpiler MicroStrategy planning to issue more shares, a move that would allow it to buy even more tokens.

即使加密货币库存商 MicroStrategy 计划发行更多股票，此举也使其能够购买更多代币。

MicroStrategy is seeking permission to increase the number of authorized shares of Class A common stock and preferred stock. Such a move would provide the company, which has transformed itself from a software maker into a bitcoin accumulator, more firepower.

MicroStrategy 正在寻求增加 A 类普通股和优先股授权股份数量的许可。此举将为该公司提供更多火力，该公司已从软件制造商转型为比特币蓄能器。

Earlier this week, MicroStrategy had announced that it was planning to raise up to US$1 billion from the sale of new Class A common stock. The company said that it planned to use the net proceeds from the offering to buy more bitcoin.

本周早些时候，MicroStrategy 宣布计划通过发行新的 A 类普通股筹集至多 10 亿美元。该公司表示，计划利用此次发行的净收益购买更多比特币。

MicroStrategy had purchased an additional US$561 million of the digital token at an average price near last week’s record high. That marked the seventh week in a row of purchases.

MicroStrategy 以接近上周历史高点的平均价格额外购买了 5.61 亿美元的数字代币。这标志着连续第七周的购买。

Bitcoin has risen 135 percent so far this year, easily exceeding returns from traditional investments such as global stocks and gold.

今年迄今为止，比特币已上涨 135%，轻松超过全球股票和黄金等传统投资的回报。

Some traders cautioned that markets could turn volatile in the coming day on massive expiries of open interest in bitcoin and ether derivatives. Today, a record US$43 billion of open interest including US$13.95 billion in bitcoin options and US$3.77 billion in ether options will expire on derivatives exchange Deribit.

一些交易员警告称，由于比特币和以太衍生品的未平仓合约大量到期，未来一天市场可能会出现波动。今天，创纪录的 430 亿美元未平仓合约将在衍生品交易所 Deribit 到期，其中包括 139.5 亿美元的比特币期权和 37.7 亿美元的以太坊期权。

Meanwhile, analysts earlier urged the US government to boost bitcoin reserves to offset its debt, after US billionaire Elon Musk again warned that the government could go bankrupt.

与此同时，在美国亿万富翁埃隆·马斯克再次警告政府可能破产后，分析师早些时候敦促美国政府增加比特币储备以抵消债务。

US debt surpassed US$36 trillion (HK$280.8 trillion) last month, and the current interest payments now account for about 23 percent of the government’s total revenue. Musk said that this figure continues to rise, and if action is not taken soon, the increasing interest payments will consume the entire government budget.

上个月美国债务超过36万亿美元（280.8万亿港元），当前利息支出目前约占政府总收入的23%。马斯克表示，这个数字还在持续上升，如果不尽快采取行动，不断增加的利息支付将消耗整个政府预算。

Last week, the US Congress passed spending legislation in a down-to-the wire burst of activity that will avert a destabilizing government shutdown ahead of the busy holiday travel season.

上周，美国国会在一场紧张的活动中通过了支出立法，这将避免在繁忙的假期旅行季节之前导致不稳定的政府关门。
