梅拉尼娅·特朗普推出自己的加密货币，引发道德担忧

梅拉尼娅·特朗普在她丈夫就任总统的前夕周日推出了自己的加密货币，就在他自己的加密货币推出的第二天

Melania Trump launched her own cryptocurrency on Sunday ahead of her husband's presidential inauguration, a move that — along with the launch of Donald Trump's own coin a day earlier — is raising ethical concerns.

周日，梅拉尼娅·特朗普在她丈夫的总统就职典礼之前推出了自己的加密货币，此举与唐纳德·特朗普前一天推出的加密货币一起引发了道德担忧。

"The Official Melania Meme is live! You can buy $MELANIA now," the incoming first lady wrote on X.

这位即将上任的第一夫人在 X 上写道：“官方梅拉尼娅表情包已上线！您现在可以购买 $MELANIA”。

The launch of the coins surprised and concerned even those in the cryptocurrency industry, some of whom criticized the Trumps for again capitalizing on his presidency by launching a lucrative business product from which he and his family stand to profit.

这些代币的推出甚至令加密货币行业的人士感到惊讶和担忧，其中一些人批评特朗普家族再次利用他的总统任期，推出了一种利润丰厚的商业产品，让他和他的家人从中获利。

"While it's tempting to dismiss this as just another Trump spectacle, the launch of the official Trump token opens up a Pandora's box of ethical and regulatory questions," said Justin D'Anethan, an independent crypto analyst based in Hong Kong.

香港独立加密货币分析师 Justin D'Anethan 表示：“虽然人们很容易将此视为特朗普的又一奇观，但特朗普官方代币的推出打开了道德和监管问题的潘多拉魔盒。”

"Should public figures, especially those with such political clout, wield this kind of sway in speculative markets? That's a question regulators are unlikely to ignore," he said.

“公众人物，尤其是那些具有如此政治影响力的公众人物，应该在投机市场中发挥这种影响力吗？监管机构不太可能忽视这个问题，”他说。

Trump, an enthusiastic supporter of crypto, has signalled that he will launch a strategic reserve of Bitcoin and many working in crypto are hoping he'll roll back regulations of the nascent industry.

特朗普是加密货币的热情支持者，他已表示他将启动比特币战略储备，许多从事加密货币工作的人希望他能取消对新兴行业的监管。

The incoming president became the first presidential candidate to accept crypto as a valid form of donation to his campaign and Bloomberg reports that Trump might use an executive order to classify cryptocurrency as a "national priority" after his inauguration on Monday.

这位即将上任的总统成为第一位接受加密货币作为其竞选活动的有效捐赠形式的总统候选人，彭博社报道称，特朗普可能会在周一就职后使用行政命令将加密货币列为“国家优先事项”。

He also has strong support from the industry, with crypto companies like Ripple, Robinhood and Coinbase having donated to his inaugural fund.

他还得到了业界的大力支持，Ripple、Robinhood 和 Coinbase 等加密货币公司都向他的首个基金捐款。

But the president-elect hasn't always been so enthusiastic about the digital assets: Trump previously called Bitcoin a "scam" in 2021, saying it was competing with and impacting the value of the U.S. dollar.

但当选总统并不总是对数字资产如此热情：特朗普此前曾在 2021 年称比特币为“骗局”，称其正在与美元价值竞争并影响美元价值。
