Ripple 首席技术官 David Schwartz 揭穿 XRP ATH 神话，揭开 Kimchi Premium 的真相

Ripple 首席技术官 David Schwartz 与一位 XRP 爱好者进行了对话，讨论 2018 年 1 月达到的 3.84 美元的价格水平是否确实是 XRP 的历史新高。

Ripple CTO David Schwartz has stepped in to clear the air after an XRP enthusiast shared an interesting observation about the token’s all-time high (ATH) price.

在一位 XRP 爱好者分享了关于该代币历史最高 (ATH) 价格的有趣观察后，Ripple 首席技术官 David Schwartz 介入澄清了这一误区。

While discussing XRP’s price movements, an enthusiast shared that the token’s ATH was not $3.84 as reported, and suggested asking Schwartz about it.

在讨论 XRP 的价格走势时，一位爱好者表示该代币的 ATH 并非报道中的 3.84 美元，并建议向 Schwartz 询问此事。

In response, Schwartz confirmed the enthusiast’s statement, adding that $3.84 was ‘often reported as the all-time high,’ but you couldn’t actually sell XRP for $3.84.

作为回应，施瓦茨证实了这位狂热者的说法，并补充说 3.84 美元“经常被报道为历史最高价”，但实际上你不能以 3.84 美元的价格出售 XRP。

This high price, he explained, included the ‘inflated amounts due to the use of "official" currency exchange rates for Korean exchange rates.’ He also attached a link that further explained the term “Kimchi premium.”

他解释说，这个高价包括“由于使用‘官方’货币汇率代替韩国汇率而导致的虚高金额。”他还附上了一个链接，进一步解释了“泡菜溢价”一词。

The term “Kimchi” refers to the cabbage dish that is a staple in South Korean cuisine. Since Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are decentralized assets, unlike stocks, they can be traded at different prices on different platforms.

“泡菜”一词指的是韩国美食中的主食——卷心菜。由于比特币和加密货币是去中心化资产，与股票不同，它们可以在不同平台上以不同价格进行交易。

When it comes to South Korea, crypto prices are usually much higher than on exchanges in other parts of the world. This difference in prices is often referred to as the “Kimchi premium.”

就韩国而言，加密货币价格通常比世界其他地区的交易所高得多。这种价格差异通常被称为“泡菜溢价”。

As for XRP, the coin soared by 16% over the last 24 hours, reaching the $3.19 level. At the time of writing, XRP was trading at $3.10.

至于 XRP，该代币在过去 24 小时内飙升 16%，达到 3.19 美元的水平。截至撰写本文时，XRP 的交易价格为 3.10 美元。

The coin’s surge came amid rumors that the Securities and Exchange Commission might start dropping some crypto cases pending in courts.

加密货币价格飙升之际，有传言称美国证券交易委员会可能会开始撤销法庭上的一些未决加密案件。

The rumors follow the departure of SEC Chairman Gary Gensler, whose last day in the office was on January 25.

传言是在 SEC 主席加里·詹斯勒 (Gary Gensler) 离职后传出的，他在任的最后一天是 1 月 25 日。
