Jim Cramer：“我喜欢加密货币很长时间了”

CNBC 的 Mad Money 主持人吉姆·克莱默 (Jim Cramer) 周二为自己对加密货币的支持进行了辩护，在担心美元升值的情况下，推荐比特币和以太坊作为投资组合资产

CNBC’s Jim Cramer is doubling down on his support for cryptocurrency, suggesting bitcoin and ethereum should be included in portfolios due to rising U.S. national debt and government spending challenges.

CNBC 的吉姆·克莱默 (Jim Cramer) 加大了对加密货币的支持力度，建议由于美国国债上升和政府支出挑战，比特币和以太坊应纳入投资组合。

In a recent segment of CNBC’s Squawk Box, Cramer highlighted the appeal of digital assets amid concerns over the country’s mounting deficit. Despite skepticism from some, Cramer maintained his stance, arguing that cryptocurrencies could serve as a hedge against a devalued dollar.

在 CNBC 的 Squawk Box 最近的一个节目中，克莱默强调了数字资产的吸引力，因为人们担心该国赤字不断增加。尽管一些人持怀疑态度，克莱默仍坚持自己的立场，认为加密货币可以作为美元贬值的对冲工具。

“I’ve liked crypto for a very long time, mostly because I know there’s a huge constituency of investors who want to buy something that can protect them from our government’s busted budget,” Cramer said, adding:

“我很长时间以来一直喜欢加密货币，主要是因为我知道有大量投资者想要购买可以保护他们免受政府预算破坏的东西，”克莱默说，并补充道：

“While there’s no proof crypto can protect you from anything — at least not yet — it’s a plausible story…Let’s just say sometimes that’s all you need in this business.”

“虽然没有证据表明加密货币可以保护你免受任何伤害——至少现在还不能——但这是一个看似合理的故事……我们只能说，有时这就是你在这个行业所需要的一切。”

Cramer pointed out the lack of enthusiasm among legislators to address the issue of the country’s debt, despite the urgent need for solutions like balancing the budget. However, political unwillingness to enact unpopular measures — such as raising taxes or cutting expenditures — leaves the problem unresolved.

克莱默指出，尽管迫切需要平衡预算等解决方案，但立法者对解决国家债务问题缺乏热情。然而，政治上不愿采取不受欢迎的措施——例如增税或削减开支——导致问题得不到解决。

“They’re not going to cut the deficit, and they’re not going to raise the debt ceiling,” Cramer said, referring to legislators. “They’re just going to keep printing money, and that’s why I think bitcoin, ethereum and maybe even some other cryptocurrencies deserve a spot in your portfolio, too.”

“他们不会削减赤字，也不会提高债务上限，”克莱默在谈到立法者时表示。 “他们只会继续印钞，这就是为什么我认为比特币、以太坊甚至其他一些加密货币也应该在你的投资组合中占有一席之地。”

Cramer has had a fluctuating stance on cryptocurrencies over the years. In December 2020, he purchased bitcoin and later sold most of his holdings by mid-June 2021, reportedly using the profits to pay off a mortgage. Following the 2022 crypto market downturn, Cramer expressed skepticism toward digital assets. However, by early 2024, he acknowledged Bitcoin’s resilience, stating, “you can’t kill it,” and described its resurgence as a “remarkable comeback.”

多年来，克莱默对加密货币的立场一直在波动。 2020 年 12 月，他购买了比特币，随后在 2021 年 6 月中旬之前出售了大部分比特币，据报道，他用所得利润来偿还抵押贷款。 2022 年加密货币市场低迷之后，克莱默对数字资产表示了怀疑。然而，到 2024 年初，他承认了比特币的韧性，并表示“你无法杀死它”，并将其复苏描述为“惊人的回归”。
