突发：特朗普赦免丝绸之路创始人罗斯·乌布利希，引发比特币战略储备的讨论

After promising to pardon Ross Ulbricht at Bitcoin 2024, US President Donald J. Trump has now followed through, issuing a full and unconditional pardon for the former Silk Road operator on the second day of his second term.

继在 Bitcoin 2024 上承诺赦免罗斯·乌布利希 (Ross Ulbricht) 后，美国总统唐纳德·J·特朗普 (Donald J. Trump) 现在兑现了承诺，在他第二任期的第二天对这位前丝绸之路运营商发出了全面、无条件的赦免。

Ulbricht had been serving two life terms plus 40 years on charges related to his role in creating Silk Road, an online marketplace that used Bitcoin as its primary payment method. Supporters have long argued that the heavy sentence was an attempt to target both Silk Road and BTC during the early days, when regulators and politicians were still grappling with the technology’s disruptive potential.

乌布利希因创建丝绸之路（一个使用比特币作为主要支付方式的在线市场）而被指控，已被判处两个无期徒刑加 40 年徒刑。支持者长期以来一直认为，重刑是在早期针对丝绸之路和比特币的尝试，当时监管机构和政界人士仍在努力应对该技术的颠覆性潜力。

Trump's pardon fulfills a pledge he made at the conference, where he vowed to free Ulbricht if re-elected. In a post on X, Vijay Boyapati, author of “The Bullish Case for Bitcoin,”underscored Ulbricht's importance to early Bitcoin adopers.

特朗普的特赦兑现了他在会议上做出的承诺，他在会议上发誓，如果连任，将释放乌布利希。 《比特币看涨案例》一书的作者维杰·博亚帕蒂 (Vijay Boyapati) 在 X 上发表的一篇文章中强调了乌布利希对早期比特币使用者的重要性。

“Newcomers to Bitcoin may not understand why old timers care so much about Ross Ulbricht. […] He embodied the ethos of early Bitcoin more than anyone. He was an entrepreneur who created a thriving marketplace,” explained Boyapati.

“比特币的新手可能不明白为什么老用户如此关心 Ross Ulbricht。 […]他比任何人都更能体现早期比特币的精神。他是一位企业家，创造了一个繁荣的市场。”博亚帕蒂解释道。

He further argues that Ulbricht believed in “radical freedom, including the freedom to trade anything with anyone else so long as it was peaceful and voluntary. He regularly wrote about his views on freedom and why he built the first truly successful Bitcoin business – the Silk Road. He wanted to create a better world and believed in his principles deeply.”

他进一步指出，乌布利希相信“激进的自由，包括与任何人进行任何交易的自由，只要是和平且自愿的。他经常写下他对自由的看法，以及为什么他建立了第一个真正成功的比特币业务——丝绸之路。他想要创造一个更美好的世界，并深信自己的原则。”

Boyapati added that, in the early days, many Bitcoin enthusiasts felt Ulbricht's punishment was unjust—“like they were locking up one of our own out of spite for what we all believed was a peaceful revolution.” He also reminded newcomers to “never forget there was a deeper purpose here,” beyond Bitcoin's price gains, pointing to the community's original ideals of libertarian freedom.

博亚帕蒂补充说，在早期，许多比特币爱好者认为乌布利希的惩罚是不公正的——“就像他们出于对我们都认为是和平革命的怨恨而关押了我们自己的人一样。”他还提醒新来者“永远不要忘记，除了比特币的价格上涨之外，还有更深层的目的”，并指出了社区最初的自由主义理想。

The pardon has also sparked fresh speculation that Trump may follow through on another campaign pledge: establishing a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR). During the 2024 conference, he floated the idea of transferring all BTC seized by law enforcement into a national stockpile. With the Ulbricht promise now kept, some in the community are expecting the SBR initiative to surface next.

这次赦免还引发了新的猜测，即特朗普可能会兑现另一项竞选承诺：建立战略比特币储备（SBR）。在 2024 年会议期间，他提出了将执法部门扣押的所有 BTC 转入国家储备的想法。随着 Ulbricht 承诺的兑现，社区中的一些人预计 SBR 计划接下来会浮出水面。

On Polymarket, the odds for a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve (SBR) jumped from 28% to as high as 44% following the news. Notably, the odds were even higher on Inauguration Day, reaching 59%. However, since President Trump has not yet issued a crypto executive order, the odds had plummeted to as low as 28% prior to the pardon of Ross Ulbricht.

消息传出后，Polymarket 上建立战略比特币储备 (SBR) 的可能性从 28% 跃升至 44%。值得注意的是，就职日当天这一几率更高，达到 59%。然而，由于特朗普总统尚未发布加密货币行政命令，在罗斯·乌布利希特赦免之前，这一可能性已降至 28%。

A widely followed crypto analyst known as Byzantine General posted on X: “The fact that he kept his promise with Ross is a good sign IMO that he’s going to follow through with supporting crypto.”

一位广受关注的加密货币分析师 Byzantine General 在 X 上发帖称：“在我看来，他兑现了与罗斯的承诺，这是一个好兆头，表明他将兑现对加密货币的支持。”

David Bailey, CEO of BTC Inc and an influential figure in turning Trump's stance pro-Bitcoin, also hinted that more crypto-focused actions are likely: “Tonight is about Ross but I’ll share this since I’m getting a ton of questions: I’m still expecting dedicated bitcoin+crypto EOs in coming days. I don’t know what they say or exactly when they drop. I also fully expect the President to deliver on the SBR in his first 100 days.”

BTC 公司首席执行官 David Bailey 是推动特朗普支持比特币立场的影响力人物，他也暗示可能会采取更多以加密货币为重点的行动：“今晚是关于罗斯的，但我会分享这一点，因为我收到了很多问题：我仍然期待未来几天出现专门的比特币+加密货币 EO。我不知道他们说什么，也不知道他们什么时候倒下的。我也完全期待总统在上任的头 100 天内兑现 SBR 的承诺。”

At press time, BTC trades at $105,558.
