Trump coin

特朗普硬币

The creation of Melania Trump’s memecoin follows the surprise launch of her husband’s own token on Friday.

梅拉尼娅·特朗普 (Melania Trump) 的模因币 (Memecoin) 是在她丈夫周五意外推出自己的代币之后创建的。

Donald Trump’s coin quickly became the 21st most valuable cryptocurrency. It’s worth almost $11 billion, according to CoinGecko.

唐纳德·特朗普的硬币很快成为第 21 位最有价值的加密货币。据 CoinGecko 称，其价值近 110 亿美元。

Despite the eye-popping numbers, crypto executives warned that Trump’s memecoin was a potential blight on the industry.

尽管数字令人瞠目结舌，但加密货币高管警告称，特朗普的模因币可能对该行业造成损害。

“A memecoin is a zero-sum lottery,” Balaji Srinivasan, a crypto investor and former CTO of Coinbase, said on X. “There is no wealth creation.”

“memecoin 是一种零和彩票，”加密货币投资者、Coinbase 前首席技术官巴拉吉·斯里尼瓦桑 (Balaji Srinivasan) 在 X 上表示，“不会创造财富。”

Even Nic Carter, general partner at Castle Island Ventures and outspoken Trump supporter, wasn’t a fan.

就连 Castle Island Ventures 的普通合伙人、直言不讳的特朗普支持者尼克·卡特 (Nic Carter) 也不是他的粉丝。

“Call me old fashioned but I think presidents should focus on running the country and not launching scam tokens,” he said.

“你可以说我很守旧，但我认为总统应该专注于治理国家，而不是发行诈骗代币，”他说。

This isn’t the incoming first lady’s first foray into crypto.

这并不是即将上任的第一夫人首次涉足加密货币领域。

After her husband released gaudy NFT trading cards bearing his likeness, Melania launched her own digital collectibles in 2022 and 2024.

在她的丈夫发布了带有他肖像的华丽 NFT 交易卡后，梅拉尼娅于 2022 年和 2024 年推出了自己的数字收藏品。

She owns MKT World LLC, which is involved in the “sale of NFTs,” according to Trump’s financial disclosures.

根据特朗普披露的财务信息，她拥有 MKT World LLC，该公司参与“NFT 销售”。

In 2023, MKT World notched between $1 million and $5 million in income. In 2024, Donald Trump didn’t list the income for his wife’s business.

2023 年，MKT World 的收入在 100 万至 500 万美元之间。 2024年，唐纳德·特朗普没有列出他妻子的生意的收入。

MKT World is behind Melania Trump’s memecoin, according to the website’s terms and conditions.

根据该网站的条款和条件，MKT World 是梅拉尼娅·特朗普模因币的幕后推手。

There are currently only 150 million out of a total 1 billion Melania tokens in circulation, according to CoinGecko.

据 CoinGecko 称，目前流通中的 Melania 代币总数为 10 亿枚，其中只有 1.5 亿枚。

About 350 million tokens are designated for public distribution and Melania’s “community.” The other 650 million are for insiders.

大约 3.5 亿个代币被指定用于公共分发和梅拉尼娅的“社区”。另外6.5亿是给内部人士的。

At about $11 a memecoin, that puts tokens under Melania’s control worth billions — on paper.

每个 memecoin 的价格约为 11 美元，这使得梅拉尼娅控制的代币在纸面上价值数十亿美元。

The total value of anyone’s crypto holdings is notoriously difficult to value because the markets are often so illiquid.

众所周知，任何人所持有的加密货币的总价值都很难估值，因为市场往往流动性非常差。

In other words, the small number of buyers and sellers leads to volatile swings in a token’s price.

换句话说，买家和卖家数量较少会导致代币价格的波动。

“Melania Memes are intended for collecting and entertainment purposes only,” reads the website for Melania’s memecoin. “They are not financial instruments or investments.”

“梅拉尼娅模因仅用于收集和娱乐目的，”梅拉尼娅模因币的网站上写道。 “它们不是金融工具或投资。”
