唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）第二任期两个月，科技行业的保守派领导人（其中一些人都在建议政府建议）处于动荡状态

他们对总统的混乱管理，即使按照特朗普1.0的标准的不寻常，也越来越难以经营公司。

Two months into Donald Trump's second term, conservative leaders in the tech industry — some of whom are advising the administration — are in a state of turmoil. They are bristling at how the president's chaotic governing, unusual even by the standards of Trump 1.0, is making it increasingly difficult to run their companies.

唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）第二任期两个月，科技行业的保守领导人（其中一些正在为政府提供建议）处于动荡状态。他们对总统的混乱管理，即使按照特朗普1.0的标准的不寻常，也越来越难以经营公司。

"None of my friends who voted for Trump are happy right now. Everyone is annoyed," says Reggie James, the founder of Eternal, a new-media company backed by Andreessen Horowitz. "When tech people got involved in the government, they thought Trump was going to take more of a surgical approach and act less like a wrecking ball."

“我的朋友现在都没有投票支持特朗普。现在每个人都很烦恼。”由安德森·霍洛维茨（Andreessen Horowitz）支持的新媒体公司Eternal的创始人雷吉·詹姆斯（Reggie James）说。 “当科技人参与政府时，他们认为特朗普将采取更多的手术方法，而不像是破坏球。”

Several Silicon Valley executives I spoke to — some of whom requested anonymity for fear of retribution — echoed this sense of disappointment, in particular at the havoc the Department of Government Efficiency has wreaked throughout the federal government. "We were all on board for a more business-friendly presidency, but in the end, the whole industry of crypto and AI got rug pulled," says the partner of a top-tier venture firm directly involved in the Trump administration. "The people surrounding Trump are all scamsters. They are getting rich off our votes, our dollars, and our time."

我与我交谈过的几位硅谷高管（其中一些人都要求匿名，因为他们担心要报应，他们都与这种失望的感觉相呼应，尤其是在破坏政府部效率的危害中，整个联邦政府在整个联邦政府中均造成了巨大的效率。一家直接参与特朗普政府的顶级风险投资公司的合伙人说：“我们都在担任更友好的业务总统职位，但最终，加密和AI的整个行业都被拉了地毯。” “特朗普周围的人们都是骗子。他们从我们的票，我们的美元和我们的时间中赚钱。”

While the tech industry at large remains relatively liberal, especially among rank-and-file employees, many influential players warmed to Trump in recent years. They include high-profile venture capital firms like Andreessen Horowitz and Peter Thiel's Founders Fund, the hosts of the popular tech podcast "All-In," as well as billionaire CEOs like Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos, who donated to and had prime seating at Trump's second inauguration. But in recent weeks — amid herky-jerky tariffs, mass government layoffs, and a shaky stock market — some influential pro-Trump players are growing impatient and disenchanted.

尽管整个科技行业仍然相对自由，尤其是在好的员工中，但近年来，许多有影响力的球员对特朗普的热情也很温暖。其中包括高调的风险投资公司，例如Andreessen Horowitz和Peter Thiel的创始人基金会，受欢迎的Tech Tech播客“ All-In”的主持人以及亿万富翁首席执行官Mark Zuckerberg和Jeff Bezos，他们在特朗普的第二次就职典礼上捐款并捐款并拥有Prime。但是最近几周 - 在赫尔基（Herky-Jerky）的关税，大众政府的裁员和摇摇欲坠的股市中，一些有影响力的亲特朗普（Pro-Trump）参与者越来越不耐烦和迷恋。

The consternation is especially pitched among startup founders, many of whom are bracing for an economic downturn. "There is a lot of uncertainty right now, and it makes people nervous," says Sara Mauskopf, the founder of the venture-backed childcare marketplace provider Winnie. Many founders, she says, are deeply worried over whether "they're going to be able to raise funding."

在创业创始人中尤其引起了人们的震惊，其中许多人正在为经济低迷而做好准备。 “现在有很多不确定性，这会使人们感到紧张，”由风险投资支持的育儿市场提供商Winnie的创始人Sara Mauskopf说。她说，许多创始人对“他们是否能够筹集资金”感到非常担心。

Others are exasperated with what they see as unscrupulous dealings with cryptocurrencies. The tech industry itself has a fraught relationship with crypto: Investors were burned by Sam Bankman-Fried's fraudulent FTX, and many tech leaders regard cryptocurrencies as Ponzi schemes with little functional value that stain the tech industry at large. Where the Biden administration took a hard-line approach to crypto, Trump has enthusiastically embraced the crypto community. Days before he was inaugurated, he launched $Trump coin, a memecoin that reached a market cap of $14.5 billion before immediately plunging in value; today, it hovers at $2 billion.

其他人则对他们认为与加密货币的不道德交易感到生气。科技行业本身与加密货币有着充实的关系：投资者被山姆·班克曼（Sam Bankman）欺诈的FTX烧毁，许多科技领导者将加密货币视为庞氏骗局方案，其功能价值很小，其功能价值很少，而技术行业则染上了整个技术行业。在拜登政府采取了加密的艰苦方法的地方，特朗普热情地拥护了加密货币社区。在他开幕前几天，他推出了$ trump Coin，这是一个纪念因素，其市值达到了145亿美元，然后立即跌入价值。今天，它徘徊在20亿美元。

As president, Trump has appointed the venture capitalist and "All-In" cohost David Sacks as the country's "crypto czar," hosted a Crypto Summit at the White House, pardoned the Silk Road founder and crypto folk hero Ross Ulbricht from serving double life sentences, and signed an executive order establishing a strategic bitcoin reserve and US digital asset stockpile.

作为总统，特朗普任命了Venture Capitalist和“ All-In”同位主机David Sacks为该国的“ Crypto Czar”，在白宫举办了一次加密峰会，赦免了丝绸之路的创始人和加密民间英雄Ross Ulbricht，从事双重生命句子，并签署了一项行政订单，并签署了一个策略性的BitCoin Asset储备，并签署了一项策略性的BitCoin Asset储备。

On X, the Palantir cofounder and vocal Trump supporter Joe Lonsdale compared creating a digital currency reserve with taxpayer dollars to theft: "It's wrong to steal my money for grift on the left; it's also wrong to tax me for crypto bro schemes." Lonsdale tells me over email that he objects to the administration naming individual coins in "a way that moved markets and meant people could trade them ahead of time." The executive branch, he said, shouldn't be in the business of "picking winners and losers."

在X上，Palantir联合创始人和人声特朗普的支持者Joe Lonsdale将创建数字货币储备与纳税人的美元进行了比较：“偷走我的钱来偷我的钱是错误的；左边的Grift;为Me向Crypto Bro Bro Bro Bro Bro Bro Shemes征税也是错误的。” Lonsdale告诉我通过电子邮件告诉我，他反对以“转移市场的方式，意味着人们可以提前交易它们”的政府。他说，行政部门不应该从事“挑选赢家和失败者”的业务。

"The crypto stuff smells weird," says a venture capitalist who is a major backer of conservative news networks. "Both AI and crypto are fields that require a specialized, technical skill set, and just because David Sacks is a podcaster doesn't mean he's qualified in AI or crypto."

一位保守新闻网络的主要支持者说：“加密货币的东西闻起来很奇怪。” “ AI和Crypto都是需要专业的技术技能的领域，仅仅因为David Sacks是播客，并不意味着他在AI或Crypto中都有资格。”

That same venture capitalist who is advising the Trump administration also claims that crypto founders are using their proximity to Trump for personal gain. Steve Witkoff, for instance, a longtime Trump associate who was appointed as the United States special envoy to the Middle East, has been cashing in on his proximity to Trump to secure private deals, this person says. Witkoff's son, Zach Witkoff, is the cofounder of World Liberty Financial, the crypto banking platform that launched Trump's memecoin. Early in March, Steve Witkoff sent cryptocurrency advocates to the Middle East to promote World Liberty Financial's latest stablecoin project, The Wall Street Journal reported. "Steve Witkoff is calling every sovereign government and saying, 'You need to support this coin if you want to be in good standing with Trump,'" the person says.

同一位为特朗普政府提供建议的风险投资家还声称，加密货币创始人正在利用其靠近特朗普的个人利益。该人说，例如，史蒂夫·维多克（Steve Witkoff）是一位长期的特朗普同事，被任命为美国中东特别使节，他一直在兑现他与特朗普获得私人交易的距离。威特科夫（Witkoff）的儿子扎克·维科夫（Zach Witkoff）是世界自由金融（World Liberty Financial）的联合创始人，世界自由金融（World Liberty Financial）是推出特朗普的纪念品的加密银行平台。据《华尔街日报》报道，3月初，史蒂夫·维特科夫（Steve Witkoff）向中东派遣了加密货币倡导者，以促进世界自由金融（World Liberty Financial）的最新Stablecoin项目。该人说：“史蒂夫·维特科夫（Steve Witkoff）打电话给每个主权政府，并说：'如果您想与特朗普保持良好的信誉，您需要支持这枚硬币。”
