特朗普夫妇的虚拟货币策略标志着特朗普第一任期谴责加密货币“凭空而来”的彻底转变

这位候任总统因利用职务之便从追随者那里谋取财富以及开辟接收巨额资金的渠道而受到批评。

Former US President Donald Trump and his family members have made a foray into the world of cryptocurrencies, with varying degrees of success.

美国前总统唐纳德·特朗普及其家人已涉足加密货币领域，并取得了不同程度的成功。

The Trumps' his-and-hers virtual currency gambits marked a complete turnaround from Trump's first-term denunciation of cryptocurrency for being “based on thin air”.

特朗普夫妇的虚拟货币策略标志着特朗普在第一任期内谴责加密货币“凭空而来”的彻底转变。

Trump's eldest sons, Donald Jr and Eric, also joined the cryptocurrency bandwagon through their company, World Liberty Financial.

特朗普的长子小唐纳德和埃里克也通过他们的公司世界自由金融加入了加密货币潮流。

The company's recent cryptocurrency purchases, amounting to $20 million, were highlighted by a user on X, to which Eric responded with a cryptic message, teasing further activity the following day.

X 上的一位用户强调了该公司最近购买了价值 2000 万美元的加密货币，埃里克对此回复了一条神秘的消息，并透露了第二天的进一步活动。

Trump's pivot towards cryptocurrency is a stark contrast to his previous stance. In a July 2019 tweet, Trump stated, "I am not a fan of Bitcoin and other Cryptocurrencies, which are not money, and whose value is highly volatile and based on thin air. Unregulated Crypto Assets can facilitate unlawful behaviour, including drug trade and other illegal activity."

特朗普转向加密货币与他之前的立场形成鲜明对比。特朗普在 2019 年 7 月的一条推文中表示，“我不喜欢比特币和其他加密货币，它们不是货币，其价值波动性很大且凭空而来。不受监管的加密资产可能会助长非法行为，包括毒品交易和其他非法活动。”
