特朗普就职典礼前比特币价格飙升至 109,000 美元以上

周一早些时候，就在当选总统唐纳德·特朗普就职典礼前几个小时，比特币价格飙升至 109,000 美元以上，加密货币行业纷纷押注他将在返回白宫后采取行动。

The price of bitcoin surged to over $109,000 early Monday, just hours ahead of President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration, as a pumped up cryptocurrency industry bets he'll take action son after returning to the White House.

周一早些时候，就在当选总统唐纳德·特朗普就职典礼前几个小时，比特币价格飙升至 109,000 美元以上，加密货币行业纷纷押注他将在返回白宫后采取行动。

Once a skeptic who said a few years ago that bitcoin " seems like a scam," Trump has embraced digital currencies with a convert's zeal. He's launched a new cryptocurrency venture and vowed on the campaign trail to take steps early in his presidency to make the U.S. into the "crypto capital" of the world.

特朗普曾是一名怀疑论者，几年前曾表示比特币“似乎是一个骗局”，但现在他以皈依者的热情拥抱了数字货币。他推出了一家新的加密货币企业，并在竞选过程中发誓要在总统任期内尽早采取措施，使美国成为世界“加密货币之都”。

His promises including creating a U.S. crypto stockpile, enacting industry-friendly regulation and event appointing a crypto "czar" for his administration.

他的承诺包括创建美国加密货币库存、制定有利于行业的监管以及为他的政府任命一位加密货币“沙皇”。

"You're going to be very happy with me," Trump told crypto-enthusiasts at a bitcoin conference last summer.

“你们会对我感到非常满意，”特朗普在去年夏天的一次比特币会议上对加密货币爱好者说道。

Bitcoin is the world's most popular cryptocurrency and was created in 2009 as a kind of electronic cash uncontrolled by banks or governments. It and newer forms of cryptocurrencies have moved from the financial fringes to the mainstream in wild fits and starts.

比特币是世界上最受欢迎的加密货币，创建于 2009 年，是一种不受银行或政府控制的电子现金。它和新形式的加密货币已经从金融边缘转变为主流。

The highly volatile nature of cryptocurrencies as well as their use by criminals, scammers and rogue nations, has attracted plenty of critics, who say the digital currencies have limited utility and often are just Ponzi schemes.

加密货币的高度波动性以及犯罪分子、诈骗者和流氓国家对它们的使用吸引了很多批评者，他们表示数字货币的实用性有限，而且往往只是庞氏骗局。

But crypto has so far defied naysayers and survived multiple prolonged price drops in its short lifespan. Wealthy players in the crypto industry, which felt unfairly targeted by the Biden administration, spent heavily to help Trump win last November's election. Bitcoin has surged in price since Trump's victory, topping $100,000 for the first time last month before briefly sliding down to about $90,000. On Friday, it rose about 5%. It jumped more than $9,000 early Monday, according to CoinDesk.

但到目前为止，加密货币已经战胜了反对者，并在其短暂的生命周期内经历了多次长期的价格下跌。加密货币行业的富裕参与者感到自己受到了拜登政府的不公平对待，因此斥巨资帮助特朗普赢得去年 11 月的大选。自特朗普获胜以来，比特币价格飙升，上个月首次突破 10 万美元，随后短暂下滑至 9 万美元左右。周五上涨约5%。据 CoinDesk 称，周一早些时候，该价格上涨超过 9,000 美元。

Two years ago, bitcoin was trading at about $20,000.

两年前，比特币的交易价格约为 20,000 美元。

Trump's picks for key cabinet and regulatory positions are stocked with crypto supporters, including his choice to lead the Treasury and Commerce departments and the head of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

特朗普对关键内阁和监管职位的选择充满了加密货币的支持者，包括他选择领导财政部和商务部以及证券交易委员会主席。

Key industry players held a first ever "Crypto Ball" on Friday to celebrate the first "crypto president." The event was sold out, with tickets costing several thousand dollars.

周五，主要行业参与者举办了首届“加密货币舞会”，以庆祝第一位“加密货币总统”。活动门票已售罄，票价数千美元。

Here's a look at some detailed action Trump might take in the early days of his administration:

以下是特朗普在执政初期可能采取的一些详细行动：

CRYPTO COUNCIL

加密货币委员会

As a candidate Trump promised that he would create a special advisory council to provide guidance on creating "clear" and "straightforward" regulations on crypto within the first 100 days of his presidency.

作为候选人，特朗普承诺他将成立一个特别咨询委员会，为在其总统任期的前 100 天内制定“明确”和“直接”的加密货币法规提供指导。

Details about the council and its membership are still unclear, but after winning November's election, Trump named tech executive and venture capitalist David Sacks to be the administration's crypto "czar." Trump also announced in late December that former North Carolina congressional candidate Bo Hines will be the executive director of the "Presidential Council of Advisers for Digital Assets."

有关该委员会及其成员的详细信息仍不清楚，但在赢得 11 月大选后，特朗普任命科技高管兼风险投资家 David Sacks 为政府的加密货币“沙皇”。特朗普还在12月下旬宣布，前北卡罗来纳州国会候选人博·海因斯将担任“总统数字资产顾问委员会”的执行董事。

At last year's bitcoin conference, Trump told crypto supporters that new regulations "will be written by people who love your industry, not hate your industry." Trump's pick to lead the SEC, Paul Atkins, has been a strong advocate for cryptocurrencies.

在去年的比特币会议上，特朗普告诉加密货币支持者，新的法规“将由热爱你的行业而不是讨厌你的行业的人来制定”。特朗普选择领导 SEC 的保罗·阿特金斯 (Paul Atkins) 一直是加密货币的坚定拥护者。

Crypto investors and companies chafed as what they said was a hostile Biden administration that went overboard in unfair enforcement actions and accounting policies that have stifled innovation in the industry — particularly at the hands of outgoing SEC Chairman Gary Gensler.

加密货币投资者和公司对他们所说的充满敌意的拜登政府感到愤怒，拜登政府在不公平的执法行动和会计政策方面做得太过分，扼杀了该行业的创新——尤其是在即将离任的美国证券交易委员会主席加里·詹斯勒(Gary Gensler)的手中。

"As far as general expectations from the Trump Administration, I think one of the best things to bet on is a tone change at the SEC," said Peter Van Valkenburgh, the executive director of the advocacy group Coin Center.

“就特朗普政府的普遍期望而言，我认为最好的赌注之一是 SEC 的基调改变，”倡导组织 Coin Center 的执行董事 Peter Van Valkenburgh 表示。

Gensler, who is set to leave as Trump takes office, said in a recent interview with Bloomberg that he's proud of his office's actions to police the crypto industry, which he said is "rife with bad actors."

即将在特朗普就职后离职的詹斯勒在最近接受彭博社采访时表示，他对自己的办公室监管加密货币行业的行动感到自豪，他说这个行业“充斥着不良行为者”。

STRATEGIC BITCOIN RESERVE

战略比特币储备

Trump also promised that as president he'll ensure the U.S. government stockpiles bitcoin, much like it already does with gold. At the bitcoin conference earlier this summer, Trump said it the U.S. government would keep, rather than auction off, the billions of dollars in bitcoin it has seized through law enforcement actions.

特朗普还承诺，作为总统，他将确保美国政府储备比特币，就像现在储备黄金一样。在今年夏天早些时候的比特币会议上，特朗普表示，美国政府将保留而不是拍卖其通过执法行动扣押的数十亿美元比特币。

Crypto advocates have posted a draft executive order online that would establish a "Strategic Bitcoin Reserve" as a "permanent national asset" to be administered by the Treasury Department through its Exchange Stabilization Fund. The draft order calls for the Treasury Department to eventually hold at least $21 billion in bitcoin.

加密货币倡导者在网上发布了一份行政命令草案，该命令将建立“战略比特币储备”作为“永久国家资产”，由财政部通过其外汇稳定基金进行管理。该命令草案要求财政部最终持有至少 210 亿美元的比特币。

Republican Sen. Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming has proposed legislation mandating the U.S. government stockpile bitcoin, which advocates said would help diversify government holdings and hedge against financial risks. Critics say bitcoin's volatility make it a poor choice as a reserve asset.

怀俄明州共和党参议员辛西娅·鲁米斯 (Cynthia Lummis) 提议立法，强制美国政府储备比特币，支持者表示这将有助于政府持有资产多元化并对冲金融风险。批评者表示，比特币的波动性使其成为储备资产的糟糕选择。

Creating such a stockpile would also be a "giant step in the direction of bitcoin becoming normalized, becoming legitimatized in

创建这样的库存也将是“朝着比特币正常化、合法化方向迈出的一大步”
