Here is what you should know about the coins and cryptocurrency's future under the Trump administration.

以下是您应该了解的关于特朗普政府领导下的硬币和加密货币的未来的信息。

What is a meme coin?

什么是模因币？

A meme coin is a type of cryptocurrency that is inspired by a meme or another internet trend. One of the most well known is dogecoin, which was created as a joke and features a dog as its mascot. It became popular in 2013 and again in 2021.

模因币是一种受模因或其他互联网趋势启发的加密货币。其中最著名的是狗狗币，它是作为一个笑话而创建的，并以狗为吉祥物。它于 2013 年开始流行，并于 2021 年再次流行。

Cryptocurrencies are unpredictable, volatile, and have been exploited by criminals to engage in fraud.

加密货币具有不可预测性、波动性，并且已被犯罪分子利用进行欺诈。

The cryptocurrency exchange FTX collapsed in 2022 and its founder, Sam Bankman-Fried was sentenced to 25 years in prison for his crimes.

加密货币交易所 FTX 于 2022 年倒闭，其创始人 Sam Bankman-Fried 因其罪行被判处 25 年监禁。

Trump's meme coin is marketed with an image of the president holding up his fist with the words, "FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT" – a phrase he has dubbed "a battle cry" after surviving an assassination attempt in July 2024. The first lady's coin features a black and white photo of Melania smiling with her hands clasped in front of her face.

特朗普的模因硬币的营销形象是总统举起拳头，上面写着“FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT”——他在 2024 年 7 月的一次暗杀企图中幸存后将这句话称为“战斗口号”。第一夫人的硬币上有一个梅拉尼娅双手紧握在脸前微笑的黑白照片。

What is crypto's future under the new Trump administration?

在特朗普新政府领导下，加密货币的未来是什么？

In the past, Trump has criticized cryptocurrency, calling it a "scam" and "potentially a disaster waiting to happen" during an interview with FOX Business in 2021. But he has since embraced the sector and on the campaign trail promised to make the U.S. "the crypto capital of the planet" by ending previous enforcement actions and bringing in friendly regulators.

过去，特朗普在 2021 年接受福克斯商业频道采访时曾批评加密货币，称其为“骗局”和“可能是一场即将发生的灾难”。但此后他拥抱了该行业，并在竞选过程中承诺让美国通过结束之前的执法行动并引入友好的监管机构，“地球的加密货币之都”。

The Trump family also has financial interests in World Liberty Financial, a crypto-related company.

特朗普家族还拥有加密货币相关公司 World Liberty Financial 的经济利益。

There have been questions surrounding Trump's meme coin and potential conflicts of interest given that Trump has promised to promote the crypto industry as president.

鉴于特朗普承诺作为总统促进加密货币行业，围绕特朗普的模因硬币和潜在的利益冲突一直存在疑问。

Trump has chosen Paul Atkins, former U.S. Securities and Exchange Commissioner and CEO of a consulting firm with crypto clients to lead the SEC. Atkins is also a supporter of cryptocurrencies and has expressed reservations about the SEC's enforcement actions against the domestic crypto industry. David Sacks, a venture capitalist, has also been appointed by Trump as the country's first crypto and artificial intelligence czar.

特朗普选择前美国证券交易委员会委员、一家加密货币客户咨询公司首席执行官保罗·阿特金斯 (Paul Atkins) 领导 SEC。阿特金斯也是加密货币的支持者，并对 SEC 针对国内加密行业的执法行动表示保留。风险投资家戴维·萨克斯(David Sacks)也被特朗普任命为美国首位加密货币和人工智能沙皇。

A GOP-controlled Congress could also help bolster cryptocurrency. Republican Arkansas Rep. French Hill, chair of the House Financial Services Committee, has pushed for measures to help develop crypto. But there is skepticism about congressional warmth toward cryptocurrency, including from digital assets expert Carol Alexander, who called it "a step in the wrong direction."

共和党控制的国会也可以帮助支持加密货币。众议院金融服务委员会主席、阿肯色州共和党众议员弗伦奇·希尔（French Hill）已推动采取措施帮助开发加密货币。但人们对国会对加密货币的热情表示怀疑，其中包括数字资产专家卡罗尔·亚历山大(Carol Alexander)，她称这是“朝着错误方向迈出的一步”。

"We have to regulate the space," Alexander, a professor at the University of Sussex, previously told NPR.

萨塞克斯大学教授亚历山大此前对美国国家公共广播电台表示：“我们必须规范这个空间。”

Preston Byrne, a cryptocurrency lawyer, said Trump's involvement in cryptocurrency raises legal questions and could have a negative impact if it is not successful.

加密货币律师普雷斯顿·伯恩(Preston Byrne)表示，特朗普涉足加密货币会引发法律问题，如果不成功，可能会产生负面影响。

"Trump himself will also have to contend with the fact that his political fortunes will be tied to an asset that the market, and not the man, controls," Byrne wrote in a post on Sunday. "If $TRUMP crashes it might affect his own political clout in DC."

伯恩在周日的一篇帖子中写道：“特朗普本人也必须面对这样一个事实，即他的政治命运将与市场而非个人控制的资产挂钩。” “如果特朗普崩盘，可能会影响他在华盛顿的政治影响力。”
