尽管2022年的加密冬季，VC Dollars Chaser Chaser Upstart Digital Asset Firms针对亚洲富人

返回前真人秀电视明星的白宫，作为一个人物，其政策将为虚拟金钱带来繁荣，刺激了该行业的硬币和公司的上升。

Over steak and wine at a swanky restaurant in downtown Singapore a week after Donald Trump won November 2024’s US presidential election, Gerald Goh pitched a bright future for digital assets to journalists covering cryptocurrencies.

唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）赢得了2024年11月的美国总统大选后，一周在新加坡市中心的一家时髦餐厅上牛排和葡萄酒，杰拉尔德·戈（Gerald Goh）向涵盖加密货币的记者提供了一个光明的未来。

The return to the White House of the former reality TV star, cast as a figure whose policies will usher in a boom for virtual money, has spurred rising bets on the sector’s coins and companies. And for bankers, fund managers and private wealth advisers in the city-state, it has triggered a frantic chase for the rich clients allocating more capital to a reenergized segment of digital finance.

返回前真人秀电视明星的白宫，作为一个人物，其政策将为虚拟金钱带来繁荣，刺激了该行业的硬币和公司的上升。对于城市国家的银行家，基金经理和私人财富顾问，它引发了对富裕客户的疯狂追逐，将更多的资金分配给重新激发的数字融资部分。

Goh, the co-founder and CEO of Sygnum, a virtual asset banking group serving high-net-worth customers in Singapore, is among scores of crypto executives who have seized the momentum to raise the profile of their services in the region’s financial hub.

Goh是Sygnum的联合创始人兼首席执行官，Sygnum是一家虚拟资产银行集团，为新加坡的高净值客户提供服务，是Crypto高管的数十名，他们抓住了在该地区金融枢纽中提高服务概况的势头。

“Specifically, in Singapore … investors generally are more positive about incorporating crypto investments as part of their investment portfolios,” Goh told Nikkei Asia. “We’ve already seen in 2024 an improvement in the mood, let’s say, in the sentiment, on the crypto side.”

“具体来说，在新加坡……投资者通常更积极地将加密投资作为其投资组合的一部分，” Goh告诉Nikkei Asia。 “在2024年，我们已经看到了情绪的改善，可以说，在情绪上，在加密货币方面。”

Following the drastic decline in digital asset prices in 2022 and the toppling of industry names such as FTX, a virtual token exchange, over financial fraud, crypto has staged a dramatic comeback in the past year.

在2022年数字资产价格的急剧下降之后，以及诸如FTX（虚拟令牌交易所）之类的行业名称，对于金融欺诈而言，Crypto在过去一年中进行了戏剧性的复出。

Bitcoin, the world’s largest cryptocurrency, surged to new highs and cracked the USD 100,000-per coin ceiling for the first time in December. Despite falls early in February, many analysts are predicting further gains in the months ahead.

比特币是世界上最大的加密货币，在12月的第一次中飙升至新高点，并在12月首次破解了100,000美元的硬币上限。尽管2月初下降，但许多分析师预测未来几个月的进一步增长。

In Southeast Asia, cryptocurrency-related companies attracted USD 325 million in funding in 2024, a 20% jump from the previous year, according to a January report by Tracxn, which monitors startups and private companies.

根据Tracxn的一月份报告，在东南亚，与加密货币相关的公司在2024年吸引了3.25亿美元的资金，比上一年增长了20％。

While this is slower growth than in the payments and banking tech segments, it still bucks the trend of the region’s broader financial technology scene, which recorded an overall 23% drop last year to USD 1.6 billion in total funding from USD 2.1 billion in 2023, the report showed. Charged by this inflow of capital and growing investor exuberance, crypto players are racing to ride the wave up.

该报告显示，这比付款和银行技术领域的增长慢，但它仍然使该地区更广泛的金融技术领域的趋势降低了，该趋势的总体趋势下降了23％，至2023年的21亿美元的总资金总额为16亿美元。由于资本的流入和不断增长的投资者的兴趣，加密货币玩家正在竞选浪潮。

But the path to wealth is not without its challenges. Singapore has a reputation as an Asian virtual currency hub but also has a financial regulator, the Monetary Authority of Singapore, which frowns on the enticement of mom-and-pop investors by digital payment token service providers, the term used for crypto companies.

但是，通往财富的道路并非没有挑战。新加坡以亚洲虚拟货币枢纽的名誉而闻名，但还有一个金融监管机构，即新加坡的货币管理机构，该机构以数字支付代币服务提供商的诱使妇女和流行投资者的诱惑而闻名，该术语用于加密公司。

MAS heavily discourages mass marketing of crypto assets to retail consumers. Platforms are thus treading carefully. Professional investors, including the rich, however, are fair game. Many buy major tokens such as Bitcoin and Ether directly, industry players note, often through centralized exchanges, or CEXs.

MAS严重阻止加密资产的大规模营销来零售消费者。因此，平台正在仔细踩踏。但是，包括富人在内的专业投资者都是公平的游戏。许多人直接通过集中交易所或CEXS购买了主要的代币，例如比特币和以太币。

Crypto data tracker CoinGecko highlighted in a January report that CEXs recorded USD 17.4 trillion in spot trading globally last year—more than double the USD 7.2 trillion volume in 2023.

Crypto Data Tracker Coingecko在1月份的一份报告中强调了CEXS去年在全球的现货贸易中记录了17.4万亿美元，超过了2023年7.2万亿美元的两倍。

In a January update, Singapore officials said the number of single-family offices—organizations set up to manage the portfolio of millionaires, billionaires and their kin, exceeded 2,000 at the end of 2024, up from the 1,400 recorded a year earlier.

新加坡官员在一月的更新中表示，单户办公室的数量（为管理百万富翁，亿万富翁及其亲戚的投资组合而设立的组织数量超过了2024年底，其比一年前记录的1,400次。

Lured to the politically stable island nation in recent years from as far afield as China and Indonesia, the expanding network of rich Asians has become a natural hunting ground for players like Sygnum.

近年来，从中国和印度尼西亚远离政治稳定的岛国国家，富裕的亚洲人的扩张网络已成为Sygnum等球员的自然狩猎场。

Without giving specific numbers, Goh said his firm’s rate for onboarding clients “probably doubled or tripled” the week after Trump’s election victory.

在没有给出具体数字的情况下，Goh表示，在特朗普大选胜利后的一周，他的公司对入职客户的税率“可能翻了一番或两倍”。

In January the company announced it had achieved unicorn status, crossing the USD 1 billion mark after closing a USD 58 million funding round; its client assets under management topped USD 5 billion.

一月份，该公司宣布取得了独角兽的身份，在结束了5800万美元的资金回合后超越了10亿美元。其管理中的客户资产超过50亿美元。

In September, as the Republican presidential nominee campaigned his way to the White House, Sygnum surveyed 400 respondents from family offices, funds and asset managers across 27 countries, including China, South Korea and Thailand.

9月，当共和党总统提名人竞选白宫时，Sygnum调查了包括中国，韩国和泰国在内的27个国家 /地区的家庭办公室，资金和资产经理的400名受访者。

Its poll found 57% of respondents in Singapore planned to raise their portfolio allocation for crypto in the next two years, higher than the survey average of 47%.

它的民意调查发现，新加坡有57％的受访者计划在未来两年内提高其对加密货币的投资组合分配，高于调查平均值47％。

Sygnum is not the only outfit reporting an eagerness among Southeast Asia’s wealthy to dabble in crypto. Independent Reserve, a token exchange licensed in Singapore, told Nikkei the number of its clients from family offices grew 20% in 2024 compared with the year before.

Sygnum并不是唯一一家报道了东南亚富人涉足加密货币的渴望。独立储备金是新加坡许可的代币交易所，与前一年相比，2024年的家庭办事处的客户数量增长了20％。

The platform said there is a mix of first-time investors and existing crypto holders raising their exposure, with clients buying into virtual coins like Bitcoin and Ether, either through family offices or via direct trading on its exchange.

该平台表示，首次投资者和现有的加密持有人会通过家庭办事处或通过其交易所直接交易来购买诸如比特币和以太之类的虚拟硬币，例如比特币和以太币等虚拟硬币。
