玛克辛·沃特斯批评特朗普进入加密货币市场，称特朗普代币是“最糟糕的加密货币”

加州众议员玛克辛·沃特斯 (Maxine Waters) 批评了唐纳德·特朗普总统最近进入加密货币市场，特别是特朗普官方代币 (TRUMP) 的推出。

Top Democrat on the House Financial Services Committee Maxine Waters has slammed President Donald Trump's recent foray into the cryptocurrency market with the launch of the Official Trump (TRUMP) token.

众议院金融服务委员会民主党领袖玛克辛·沃特斯 (Maxine Waters) 猛烈抨击了唐纳德·特朗普总统最近推出官方特朗普 (TRUMP) 代币，进军加密货币市场。

The congresswoman warned that the move could trigger increased regulatory scrutiny of the crypto industry and place investors at risk of losing their funds.

这位女议员警告说，此举可能会引发对加密货币行业的更严格的监管审查，并使投资者面临失去资金的风险。

In a statement on Friday, Waters said she was against the Trump token, describing it as “the worst of crypto.”

沃特斯在周五的一份声明中表示，她反对特朗普代币，并将其描述为“最糟糕的加密货币”。

“I am against the Trump coin. It is the worst of crypto. It might also lead to more attention from regulators on the crypto industry,” her statement read.

“我反对特朗普币。这是最糟糕的加密货币。这也可能会引起监管机构对加密行业的更多关注。”她的声明中写道。

She expressed concern over the potential for manipulation in the coin's sales, given the involvement of Trump's associates in the project.

鉴于特朗普的同事参与了该项目，她对代币销售可能被操纵的可能性表示担忧。

“This coin is being pushed by Trump's associates and it could be used to manipulate investors. Also, because it is a memecoin, it is not covered by any securities laws,” Waters stated.

“这种代币是由特朗普的同伙推动的，它可以用来操纵投资者。此外，由于它是一种模因币，因此不受任何证券法的管辖。”沃特斯表示。

The congresswoman also raised concerns about the anonymous nature of the token buyers, which could allow them to use the coin to evade national security and anti-corruption laws.

这位女议员还对代币买家的匿名性质表示担忧，这可能使他们能够使用代币逃避国家安全和反腐败法。

“There is also a troubling lack of transparency around the buyers of this coin. Anyone globally, even individuals who have been sanctioned by the U.S. or banned from our capital markets, can now trade and profit off of $TRUMP through various unregulated platforms,” her statement noted.

“这种代币的买家也缺乏透明度，令人不安。全球任何人，甚至是受到美国制裁或被禁止进入我们资本市场的个人，现在都可以通过各种不受监管的平台进行 $TRUMP 交易并从中获利，”她的声明指出。

She further highlighted the lack of protection for investors in the coin's user agreement, which reportedly includes a clause barring customers who are defrauded from filing class-action suits.

她进一步强调了该代币的用户协议缺乏对投资者的保护，据报道其中包括一项条款，禁止受骗的客户提起集体诉讼。

“The user agreement also includes a provision that seems to be designed to prevent investors who are defrauded by this coin from filing class-action lawsuits to recoup their losses,” Waters stated.

沃特斯表示：“用户协议还包括一项条款，似乎旨在防止被该代币欺骗的投资者提起集体诉讼以挽回损失。”

The congresswoman also highlighted the possibility of Trump's insiders dumping their assets, which could leave investors with nothing in a rug pull scenario.

这位女议员还强调了特朗普内部人士抛售资产的可能性，这可能会让投资者陷入困境。

“Finally, investors should be aware that Trump and his close associates could dump their holdings of this coin at any time, leaving investors with nothing in a rug pull,” she said.

“最后，投资者应该意识到，特朗普和他的亲密伙伴可能随时抛售他们持有的这种代币，让投资者一无所有，”她说。

Trump's memecoin raises questions on crypto legitimacy

特朗普的模因币引发了对加密货币合法性的质疑

The launch of the TRUMP token has not remained unnoticed in the crypto space. While some have backed the coin as a fun concept, others, including Waters, have pointed out the potential to damage the industry's reputation.

TRUMP 代币的推出在加密货币领域并没有被忽视。虽然一些人支持这种硬币作为一个有趣的概念，但包括沃特斯在内的其他人则指出了可能损害该行业声誉的可能性。

In her statement, Waters highlighted the crypto industry's efforts to gain recognition and be treated similarly to classical financial organizations. She suggested that Trump and his team's actions could complicate these processes and lead to more stringent measures and scrutiny from lawmakers.

沃特斯在声明中强调了加密货币行业为获得认可并获得与传统金融组织类似的待遇而做出的努力。她表示，特朗普及其团队的行为可能会使这些过程变得复杂，并导致立法者采取更严格的措施和审查。

“The launch and sale of this coin is yet another reason why all Americans and policymakers should exercise extreme caution on crypto,” the congresswoman stated.

这位国会女议员表示：“这款硬币的发行和销售是所有美国人和政策制定者应对加密货币保持极度谨慎的另一个原因。”

The TRUMP token was launched on January 17, followed by the same day, the launch of another memecoin by Trump's wife, Melania Trump.

特朗普代币于 1 月 17 日推出，同一天，特朗普的妻子梅拉尼娅·特朗普推出了另一种模因币。

Kiyosaki criticizes speculative trend

清崎批评投机趋势

Author Robert Kiyosaki also criticized the TRUMP memecoin, stating that the current direction of the crypto industry towards meme coins is not beneficial for the development of crypto as the future of finance. Kiyosaki, who often supports such assets as gold, silver, and Bitcoin, noted that memecoins like TRUMP are a sign of a dangerous trend.

作者 Robert Kiyosaki 也批评了 TRUMP memecoin，指出当前加密行业向 meme 币的方向不利于加密货币作为金融未来的发展。经常支持黄金、白银和比特币等资产的清崎指出，像特朗普这样的模因币是危险趋势的标志。

“What do I think about TRUMP COIN? Not much. Unfortunately, the whole crypto world is becoming a ‘tranny’ transforming from the ‘future’ to a ‘farce,'” Kiyosaki tweeted on January 18.

“我对特朗普币有何看法？不多。不幸的是，整个加密世界正在变成一场从‘未来’转变为‘闹剧’的‘变性人’，”Kiyosaki 于 1 月 18 日发推文。

“I hold my course buying real Gold, real silver, and real Bitcoin. As a personal rule I do not invest in any ETFs. I am old and old people get wiped out in speculative manias. Good Luck.”

“我坚持购买真正的黄金、真正的白银和真正的比特币。作为个人规则，我不投资任何 ETF。我老了，老人们在投机狂热中被消灭了。祝你好运。”

There has also been criticism of the distribution of the TRUMP token, with assertions that 80% of the tokens are located in Trump's wallet and no lock-up period has been set.

也有人对 TRUMP 代币的分配提出批评，声称 80% 的代币位于特朗普的钱包中，并且没有设定锁定期。

Balaji Srinivasan, the former CTO of Coinbase, called meme coins a “zero-sum lottery.” Kiyosaki's statement on Friday seems to align with this view.

Coinbase 前首席技术官巴拉吉·斯里尼瓦桑 (Balaji Srinivasan) 将模因币称为“零和彩票”。清崎周五的声明似乎与这一观点一致。

“Trump needs to fire his crypto advisors, from top to bottom, and replace them with people who know what they are doing,” said Gabor Gurbacs, founder of PointsVille.

PointsVille 创始人 Gabor Gurbacs 表示：“特朗普需要从上到下解雇他的加密货币顾问，并用知道自己在做什么的人来取代他们。”

“The meme coins are costing the US, the presidency, his family a lot of credibility, and the consequences of this haven't even started.”

“模因币正在让美国、总统和他的家人失去很多信誉，而其后果甚至还没有开始。”
