亚特兰大的私人研究机构埃默里大学报告称，灰度比特币迷你信托基金持有价值 1510 万美元的资产。

Emory University, a private research institution in Atlanta, has reported $15.1 million worth of holdings in Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust.

亚特兰大的私人研究机构埃默里大学报告称，灰度比特币迷你信托基金持有价值 1510 万美元的资产。

This unusual move for a higher education institution was revealed in an Oct. 25 filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

10 月 25 日向美国证券交易委员会提交的文件披露了高等教育机构这一不同寻常的举措。

According to the SEC filing, Emory University holds nearly 2.7 million shares of the Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust.

根据 SEC 的文件，埃默里大学持有灰度比特币迷你信托基金近 270 万股。

The tentative value of the holdings came around at approximately $15.1 million. This investment represents a major commitment to cryptocurrency exposure from an academic institution. This move also sets it apart from its peers in higher education.

所持股份的暂定价值约为 1510 万美元。这项投资代表了学术机构对加密货币投资的重大承诺。这一举措也使其在高等教育领域的同行中脱颖而出。

The Grayscale Bitcoin Mini Trust, approved in July, functions as an offshoot of the larger Grayscale Bitcoin Trust. The mini trust is designed to provide passive exposure to Bitcoin’s price movements at a lower share price.

灰度比特币迷你信托基金于 7 月获得批准，是规模更大的灰度比特币信托基金的一个分支。迷你信托旨在以较低的股价提供对比特币价格变动的被动敞口。

In addition to its Bitcoin (BTC) trust holdings, Emory also reported ownership of 4,312 shares in Coinbase, valued at $768,269. The cryptocurrency exchange’s stock, COIN, was valued at $205.05 at press time.

除了持有比特币 (BTC) 信托资产外，埃默里大学还拥有 4,312 股 Coinbase 股票，价值 768,269 美元。截至发稿时，该加密货币交易所的股票 COIN 估值为 205.05 美元。

Emory's investment choices mark a distinctive approach among educational institutions. Previously, pension funds in Wisconsin and Jersey City have reported holdings in crypto-based exchange-traded products.

埃默里大学的投资选择标志着教育机构中独特的做法。此前，威斯康星州和泽西市的养老基金已报告持有基于加密货币的交易所交易产品。

However, Emory stands out as one of the few institutions of higher education to report owning such assets.

然而，埃默里大学是少数几所报告拥有此类资产的高等教育机构之一。

This move by a prestigious university that was founded in 1836 could signal growing institutional acceptance of cryptocurrency-related investments within the academic sector.

一所成立于 1836 年的著名大学的这一举措可能标志着学术界对加密货币相关投资的机构接受度不断提高。

The revelation by the university comes at a time when Bitcoin is struggling to sustain its upward momentum. Every time Bitcoin exhibits a bullish sign, various factors affect the overall market.

该大学的披露正值比特币正在努力维持其上涨势头之际。每当比特币呈现看涨迹象时，各种因素都会影响整个市场。

Bitcoin was down by over 2% at press time. The global crypto market cap is also down by almost 2% and stands at $2.27 trillion.

截至发稿时，比特币下跌超过 2%。全球加密货币市值也下降了近 2%，降至 2.27 万亿美元。

Colleges and crypto funds

大学和加密基金

Harvard University, Yale University, and Stanford University are among the high-profile institutions that have reportedly invested in cryptocurrency funds or Bitcoin trusts.

据报道，哈佛大学、耶鲁大学和斯坦福大学等知名机构都投资了加密货币基金或比特币信托。

MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) has also been actively involved in the cryptocurrency space, not only through its investments but also by contributing research and fostering blockchain innovation.

麻省理工学院（麻省理工学院）也积极参与加密货币领域，不仅通过投资，还通过贡献研究和促进区块链创新。

And University of Michigan invested in Andreessen Horowitz’s crypto fund in 2018. Andreessen Horowitz has substantial investments in cryptocurrency, including Bitcoin, so it’s likely that Bitcoin exposure was part of that portfolio.

密歇根大学于 2018 年投资了 Andreessen Horowitz 的加密基金。Andreessen Horowitz 对包括比特币在内的加密货币进行了大量投资，因此比特币敞口很可能是该投资组合的一部分。
