智囊团要求司法部调查特朗普的成员

一个智囊团敦促美国司法部（DOJ）调查唐纳德·特朗普总统的官方特朗普（特朗普）Memecoin

A public interest group has urged the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate President Donald Trump’s Official Trump (TRUMP) memecoin, arguing that it could violate federal laws prohibiting officials from soliciting gifts.

一个公共利益集团敦促美国司法部（DOJ）调查唐纳德·特朗普总统的官方特朗普（特朗普）纪念物，认为它可能违反禁止官员征求礼物的联邦法律。

In a letter sent on Feb. 5 to the DOJ and the U.S. Office of Government Ethics (OGE), Public Citizen officials questioned whether Trump’s direct promotion of the token constitutes an illegal solicitation.

在2月5日致司法部和美国政府道德办公室（OGE）办公室的一封信中，公民官员质疑特朗普直接促进令牌是否构成非法招标。

“A person sending money for a Trump meme is not purchasing a tangible product. Instead, the person receives only a digital receipt (in a blockchain), which is similar to a donor sending a check and receiving digital confirmation that the check was received,” the letter states.

“一个为特朗普模因寄钱的人不是购买有形产品。取而代之的是，该人仅收到数字收据（在区块链中），该收据类似于捐赠者发送支票并收到收到支票的数字确认的捐赠者。”

The watchdog group noted that Trump’s memecoin does not represent a tangible product or an investment contract but is instead a mechanism for financial contributions that personally benefit him.

监管机构指出，特朗普的纪念物不代表有形的产品或投资合同，而是一种亲自受益于他的财务捐款的机制。

Trump first launched the TRUMP memecoin in mid-January, just days before taking office. The token soared in value by 11,000%, now ranking as the 41st-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. However, watchdogs say the project raises ethical and legal concerns.

特朗普在1月中旬，就在上任前几天首次推出了特朗普的成人。代币的价值飙升了11,000％，现在按市值排名为41大加密货币。但是，看门狗说该项目引起了道德和法律问题。

Public Citizen cited the federal anti-bribery statute, which prohibits officials from soliciting gifts for personal gain. While presidents are allowed to receive gifts, they cannot actively request them. The letter further warns that Trump’s use of the token could set a dangerous precedent, allowing other politicians to monetize their positions in ways that bypass federal oversight.

公民列举了《联邦反贿赂法》，该法规禁止官员征求礼物以获得个人利益。虽然允许总统收到礼物，但他们不能积极要求他们。这封信进一步警告说，特朗普对代币的使用可能会树立危险的先例，使其他政客可以以绕过联邦监督的方式获利。

Public Citizen also flagged potential violations of the Constitution’s Emoluments Clause, arguing that crypto transactions can be conducted anonymously, which could allow foreign state actors to use the memecoin to financially benefit the U.S. president without disclosure.

公共公民还标记了对宪法的埃默尔条款的潜在违规行为，认为可以匿名进行加密交易，这可以允许外国州行为者利用该纪念物在未经披露的情况下对美国总统进行财务利益。

“A person sending money for a Trump meme is not purchasing a new tangible product. Instead, the person receives only a digital receipt (in a blockchain), which is similar to a donor sending a check and receiving digital confirmation that the check was received,” the letter adds.

“为特朗普模因寄钱的人没有购买新的有形产品。取而代之的是，该人仅收到数字收据（在区块链中），这类似于捐赠者发送支票并收到收到支票的数字确认。”

Backlash against Trump’s crypto involvement

反对特朗普的加密参与

The backlash against Trump’s crypto involvement extends beyond legal concerns.

针对特朗普加密货币的反对范围超出了法律关注。

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin recently warned that political coins could serve as vehicles for unlimited political bribery, though he did not reference TRUMP specifically.

以太坊联合创始人Vitalik Buterin最近警告说，政治硬币可以作为无限政治贿赂的车辆，尽管他没有专门提及特朗普。

Billionaire investor Mark Cuban mocked the TRUMP token, suggesting that all proceeds from its sales should be directed to the U.S. Treasury to help reduce the national debt.

亿万富翁的投资者马克·古巴（Mark Cuban）嘲笑特朗普的代币，建议将其销售中的所有收益都引向美国财政部，以帮助减少国家债务。

“If meme coins are the way, maybe I'll issue one. With a twist. Same terms as $TRUMP. 20% float. Same release schedule. One difference. All the revenue from the sale of the coins go to the U.S. Treasury. The wallet address will be published so everyone can track it. If you want to gamble, gamble. But at least use it to make a dent in the U.S. Debt. You in?” Cuban said on X.

“如果模因硬币是一种方式，也许我会发行一枚。有一个扭曲。与$ trump相同的条款。 20％浮动。相同的发布时间表。一个区别。出售硬币的所有收入都将用于美国财政部。钱包地址将发布，以便每个人都可以跟踪它。如果您想赌博，请赌博。但至少用它来削弱美国债务。你进去吗？”古巴在X上说。
