NYDIG分析师说

纽约数字投资集团（NYDIG）全球研究负责人格雷格·奇普拉罗（Greg Cipolaro）在3月21日的注释中说，包括埃隆·马斯克（Elon Musk）在内的特朗普政府官员已经使用区块链来追踪美国黄金和政府支出

An idea to tokenize or track U.S. gold reserves to make their movements transparent on a cryptocurrency blockchain won’t work in the same trustless way as Bitcoin does, but doing so could help the coin, a research analyst says.

一位研究分析师说，一个使我们的黄金储备的想法使他们的动作在加密货币区块链上透明的想法不会像比特币一样无信任的方式工作，但是这样做可以帮助硬币。

Global macroeconomic research head at New York Digital Investment Group (NYDIG) Greg Cipolaro said in a March 21 note that Trump administration officials, and later Elon Musk, have floated using a blockchain to track U.S. gold and government spending — an idea supported by crypto executives.

纽约数字投资集团（NYDIG）的全球宏观经济研究负责人格雷格·奇普拉罗（Greg Cipolaro）在3月21日的一份说明中说，特朗普政府官员和后来的埃隆·马斯克（Elon Musk）使用区块链浮动，以跟踪我们的黄金和政府支出 - 这是加密高管支持的想法。

“Here’s the thing about blockchains. They’re not very smart. They’re limited in the information they convey. For example, Bitcoin has no idea what the price of Bitcoin is or even the current time,” Cipolaro said.

Cipolaro说：“这是关于区块链的事情。它们不是很聪明。它们在传达的信息中有限。例如，比特币不知道比特币的价格是多少，甚至是当前的时间。”

He said the tokenization or tracking of gold reserves on a blockchain could help with audits and transparency but would still "rely on trust and coordination with central entities" compared to Bitcoin, which "was designed to explicitly remove centralized entities."

他说，与比特币相比，与“旨在明确删除集中式实体”相比，区块链上的银色储备的令牌化或跟踪可能有助于审计和透明度，但仍将“依靠与中央实体的信任和协调”。

Cipolaro added that tokenization and blockchain-tracking ideas aren’t competitive with the crypto market and might help to increase awareness of it, which "could ultimately benefit Bitcoin."

Cipolaro补充说，令牌化和区块链跟踪的想法与加密货币市场没有竞争力，可能有助于提高人们对它的认识，这“最终可能会使比特币受益”。

It comes amid calls from some for an independent audit of the United States’ gold reserves.

有些人呼吁对美国黄金储备进行独立审核的呼吁。

Republican Senator Rand Paul last month seemingly called on Musk’s federal cost-cutting project to investigate the U.S. government’s gold stash at the Bullion Depository in Fort Knox, which the U.S. Mint says holds nearly half of the country’s gold.

共和党参议员兰德·保罗（Rand Paul）上个月似乎呼吁马斯克（Musk）的联邦削减成本项目调查美国政府在诺克斯堡（Fort Knox）的金条存放地点的黄金藏匿处，美国造币厂称，该项目持有该国近一半的黄金。

The Treasury audits and publishes reports on gold holdings at Fort Knox and other locations across the U.S. every month, but President Donald Trump and Musk have both chatted up decades-old conspiracy theories about the gold and questioned whether it’s still all there.

财政部审计并发布了每个月在诺克斯堡和美国其他地区黄金控股的报告，但唐纳德·特朗普和马斯克总统都聊了数十年的关于黄金的阴谋论，并质疑它是否仍然在那里。

Is time to audit the Fed, close down the deep state and inspect the gold at Fort Knox.

是时候审核美联储，关闭深度状态并在诺克斯堡检查黄金。

They have both pushed for an independent audit of Fort Knox. The vaults were last opened in 2017 for Trump’s then-Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin to view the gold and before that, in 1974 to a congressional delegation and a group of journalists.

他们俩都在推动对诺克斯堡的独立审核。拱顶最后一次于2017年开放，当时特朗普当时的财政部长史蒂夫·姆努钦（Steve Mnuchin）观看黄金，在此之前，在1974年，国会代表团和一群记者。

The Mint’s website says that no gold has went in or out of Fort Knox “for many years,” except for “very small quantities” used to test the gold’s purity during audits.

造币厂的网站说，除了在审计期间测试黄金纯度的“非常少量”以外，没有黄金进出诺克斯堡。

Trump’s Treasury secretary, Scott Bessent, said last month that Fort Knox is audited every year and “all the gold is present and accounted for.”

特朗普的财政部长斯科特·贝斯特（Scott Bessent）上个月表示，诺克斯堡每年都会受到审核，“所有的黄金都在场并考虑到。”
