彼得·希夫（Peter Schiff）质疑美国政府持有比特币作为储备资产的基本原理

周一，经济学家彼得·席夫（Peter Schiff）质疑美国政府将比特币BTC/USD作为储备资产的决定

On Monday, economist Peter Schiff took aim at the U.S. government’s decision to hold Bitcoin (BTC/USD) as a reserve asset amid the apex cryptocurrency’s ongoing slump.

周一，经济学家彼得·希夫（Peter Schiff）瞄准了美国政府将比特币（BTC/USD）持有的决定，作为Apex Cryptocurrency持续下滑的储备资产。

What Happened: Schiff took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to highlight that Bitcoin’s market value has plunged approximately 30% from its January record high, dropping below $77,000.

发生的事情是：Schiff登上了X（以前称为Twitter），以强调比特币的市场价值从1月份的纪录高点下降了约30％，下降到77,000美元以下。

“It’s hard to see the rationale for the U.S. government holding Bitcoin as a reserve asset when it can lose that much market value so quickly,” Schiff remarked. “The rationale will be even harder to see when it’s down 50%.”

席夫说：“当美国政府将比特币视为储备资产时，很难看到这么快的市场价值。” “何时下降了50％，理由将更加困难。”

However, backers of Bitcoin’s safe haven narrative swung into action, with award-winning investment manager Michael A. Gayed, known for his book "The Value Factor: The Empirical Foundations of Anomalies in Capital Markets," inserting “Store of value” in response to Schiff’s post.

但是，比特币避风港叙事的支持者迅速采取行动，屡获殊荣的投资经理迈克尔·A·盖伊德（Michael A. Gayed）以他的著作《价值因素：资本市场异常的经验基础》而闻名，以响应Schiff的职位插入“价值存储”。

Over the past five years, Bitcoin has reportedly gained 1,408%, and 243% in the last two years.

在过去的五年中，据报道，比特币在过去两年中上涨了1,408％，243％。

Yet, Schiff was quick to clap back. “If the price can drop over 30% in less than two months without anything really happening, how can that be a store of anything. What if the government needed to sell the Bitcoin?”

然而，席夫很快就鼓掌了。 “如果价格可以在不到两个月的时间内下降30％以上而没有真正发生任何事情，那怎么会成为任何东西。如果政府需要出售比特币怎么办？”

Now that Bitcoin fell below $77K, it's down 30% from its January record high. It's hard to see the rationale for the U.S. government holding Bitcoin as a reserve asset when it can lose that much market value so quickly. The rationale will be even harder to see when it's down 50%.

现在，比特币低于$ 77,000，比一月份的纪录高下降了30％。当美国政府将比特币视为储备资产时，很难看到这么快的市场价值损失这一储备金。何时下降了50％，这将很难看出。

Additionally, Schiff pondered the fate of the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve and the Digital Asset Stockpile, both established by President Joe Biden’s executive order last week, without congressional approval. He asked what would happen if Donald Trump’s successor president decided that the U.S. didn’t need such a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve or Crypto stockpile and decided to “sell it all.”

此外，希夫（Schiff）思考了比特币战略储备和数字资产库存的命运，该储备由总统乔·拜登（Joe Biden）的行政命令上周建立，没有国会批准。他问，如果唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）的继任总统决定美国不需要这样的比特币战略储备或加密货币，而是决定“全部出售”会发生什么。

Since both the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve and the Crypto Stockpile were established by an executive order and not an act of Congress, what happens if the next president decides that the U.S. doesn't need a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve or Crypto stockpile and decides to sell it all?

由于比特币战略储备和加密货币库存都是由行政命令建立的，而不是国会行为，因此如果下一任总统决定美国不需要比特币战略储备或加密储备并决定全部出售这一切，会发生什么？

Why It Matters: Schiff’s comments come in the context of his ongoing criticism of the government’s decision to create a Bitcoin strategic reserve. He previously predicted that this move could damage the U.S. dollar.

为什么重要的是：席夫的评论是在他对政府决定创建比特币战略储备的持续批评的背景下。他此前曾预测，这一举动可能会损害美元。

He has also branded such investments as a “waste of resources,” arguing that they divert capital from real wealth creation.

他还将这样的投资称为“浪费资源”，认为他们将资本转移到了真正的财富创造中。
