随着 DOT、BCH、UNI 和 LINK 的激增，实用加密货币顺应比特币的后期反弹

在加密货币世界里，用一句老话说，水涨船高。这确实是本周的动态

As the presidential election nears its conclusion and crypto prices continue their late-2024 rally, several utility coins and tokens have posted impressive gains. Among them are Polkadot (CRYPTO: DOT), Bitcoin Cash (CRYPTO: BCH), Uniswap (CRYPTO: UNI), and Chainlink (CRYPTO: LINK).

随着总统选举接近尾声，加密货币价格继续 2024 年末的上涨势头，多种实用代币和代币都出现了令人印象深刻的涨幅。其中包括 Polkadot（加密货币：DOT）、比特币现金（加密货币：BCH）、Uniswap（加密货币：UNI）和 Chainlink（加密货币：LINK）。

Here's a closer look at their performance this week.

以下是他们本周的表现的详细介绍。

1. Polkadot (DOT)

1. 波卡（DOT）

Fresh off a 15% gain the previous week, Polkadot continued its hot streak with another 22% gain week to date as of Friday before market open. This brought DOT to a price of $20.84. Polkadot is a proof-of-stake cryptocurrency that serves as a platform for building decentralized applications and other blockchains.

继上周上涨 15% 后，Polkadot 继续保持火爆势头，截至周五开市前，本周迄今为止又上涨了 22%。这使得 DOT 的价格达到 20.84 美元。 Polkadot 是一种权益证明加密货币，可作为构建去中心化应用程序和其他区块链的平台。

2. Bitcoin Cash (BCH)

2. 比特币现金（BCH）

Another cryptocurrency that had a strong week was Bitcoin Cash, which rose by 15%. This pushed BCH to a price of $362. As its name suggests, Bitcoin Cash is a fork of the original Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) that was created in 2017. It is designed to handle faster and cheaper transactions than Bitcoin.

另一种本周表现强劲的加密货币是比特币现金，其上涨了 15%。这将 BCH 的价格推至 362 美元。顾名思义，比特币现金是 2017 年创建的原始比特币（加密货币：BTC）的一个分支。它的设计目的是处理比比特币更快、更便宜的交易。

3. Uniswap (UNI)

3.Uniswap（UNI）

Uniswap, the native token of the decentralized exchange of the same name, also saw a solid increase of 11% this week. As of Friday, UNI was trading at $12.18. Uniswap allows users to trade cryptocurrencies directly with each other, without the need for a middleman.

同名去中心化交易所的原生代币 Uniswap 本周也实现了 11% 的稳健增长。截至周五，UNI 的交易价格为 12.18 美元。 Uniswap 允许用户直接相互交易加密货币，无需中间人。

4. Chainlink (LINK)

4. 链环（LINK）

Rounding out the list of impressive gainers this week was Chainlink, which rose by 12%. This brought LINK to a price of $10.88. Chainlink is a decentralized oracle network that provides smart contracts with access to off-chain data.

Chainlink 本周上涨了 12%。这使得 LINK 的价格达到 10.88 美元。 Chainlink 是一个去中心化的预言机网络，为智能合约提供对链外数据的访问。

Rising tides and crypto bellwethers

不断上涨的浪潮和加密货币领头羊

This big wave of crypto enthusiasm has been with us since the presidential election, which has served to galvanize the world's growing ranks of crypto-heads. President-elect Donald Trump has both indicated support for the industry and has even been involved recently in a crypto project, World Liberty Financial.

自总统选举以来，这股加密货币热情一直伴随着我们，这刺激了世界上不断增长的加密货币领袖队伍。当选总统唐纳德·特朗普都表示了对该行业的支持，甚至最近还参与了一个加密项目“世界自由金融”。

Another development at the government level is the news on Thursday that Gary Gensler, the chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), will be stepping down on Inauguration Day. Gensler was at times a proponent of tighter regulation of cryptocurrencies and is generally considered to be outright opposed to them. His replacement will almost certainly be more amenable to not only their continued existence, but also their expansion.

政府层面的另一个进展是周四有消息称，美国证券交易委员会 (SEC) 主席加里·根斯勒 (Gary Gensler) 将在就职日当天辞职。 Gensler 有时是对加密货币进行更严格监管的支持者，但通常被认为是完全反对的。他的继任者几乎肯定不仅会更愿意接受他们的继续存在，而且会更愿意接受他们的扩张。

As the trading week came to a close, all eyes were on Bitcoin, ever this fascinating asset class's bellwether. As of early Friday morning its price was heavily teasing $100,000 apiece, quite a milestone for what some critics still decry as "funny money." Almost needless to say, hitting or exceeding that level would put it at a new all-time high. It would also be likely to extend the rally all on its own.

随着交易周接近尾声，所有人的目光都集中在比特币上，比特币一直是这一迷人资产类别的领头羊。截至周五凌晨，其价格已达到每张 10 万美元，对于一些评论家仍谴责为“有趣的钱”来说，这是一个相当大的里程碑。几乎不用说，达到或超过该水平将使其达到新的历史高点。它也有可能独自延长涨势。

Anytime an indicator asset like Bitcoin scales heights like that on a surge of bullishness, investors start to hunt around for comparable investments that might produce better returns. Utility cryptos fit this bill, as they're less volatile than, say, meme coins, and they coat-tail quite nicely behind the leader. Bitcoin Cash even has the vaunted Bitcoin name in its title.

每当像比特币这样的指标资产在看涨情绪高涨时达到这样的高度，投资者就会开始寻找可能产生更好回报的类似投资。实用型加密货币符合这一要求，因为它们比模因币等波动性更小，而且它们很好地追随了领先者。比特币现金甚至在其标题中包含了备受推崇的比特币名称。

It might start cooling down

它可能会开始冷却

Not to be a downer, but the longer a financial rally lasts, the harder it is to sustain. This one feels late-stage to me, not least because it seems to be reaching a point where it requires constant fuel -- i.e., crypto-positive news items -- to keep up the burn. Investors can never really predict events like an SEC chair's resignation, but so far there are no signs of serious market-moving developments racing down the pike. Crypto investors will surely be hoping I'm wrong.

并不是要表现得很沮丧，但金融反弹持续的时间越长，就越难以维持。对我来说，这感觉已经是后期了，尤其是因为它似乎已经达到了需要持续不断的燃料（即加密货币积极的新闻报道）来维持燃烧的地步。投资者永远无法真正预测美国证券交易委员会主席辞职等事件，但到目前为止，还没有迹象表明会出现严重影响市场的事态发展。加密货币投资者肯定希望我错了。
