Bitcoin’s value is inching closer to its all-time high price of $108,786 on Monday as the US Congress is expected to debate a landmark cryptocurrency draft bill this week.

週一，比特幣的價值越來越接近其歷史上的高價108,786美元，因為預計美國國會將在本週辯論一項具有里程碑意義的加密貨幣草案。

The world’s leading cryptocurrency is currently priced at nearly $103,000, extending the gains it has made in the last two weeks.

目前，全球領先的加密貨幣價格近103,000美元，延長了過去兩週的收益。

Its price surge is linked to renewed fears of inflation in the US, with tariffs on key imports into the country coming back into discussion.

它的價格飆升與對美國通貨膨脹的新擔憂有關，其中關鍵進口到該國的關稅重新討論。

The Senate is also expected to discuss a landmark cryptocurrency draft bill this week, which would create the first-ever US regulatory framework for stablecoins.

預計參議院還將討論本週具有里程碑意義的加密貨幣法案草案，該法案將為Stablecoins創建有史以來第一個美國監管框架。

These are cryptocurrencies pegged to the USD, such as Tether and the USD Coin (USDC), which offer a more stable alternative to volatile cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin.

這些是固定在USD的加密貨幣，例如Tether和USD Coin（USDC），它們為比特幣等揮發性加密貨幣提供了更穩定的替代品。

It is unclear if the bill has a majority support in the US House, but experts believe it represents a breakthrough in talks over cryptocurrency legislation.

目前尚不清楚該法案在美國眾議院是否有多數支持，但專家認為這代表了對加密貨幣立法的談判的突破。

The bill needs to pass a 60-vote threshold, and many Democrats said they need to review the revised text before making any commitments.

該法案需要通過60票的門檻，許多民主黨人說，他們需要在做出任何承諾之前審查修訂文本。

It is however, already facing opposition from several Democrats, including Senator Elizabeth Warren, who raised concerns that the draft bill “does not include any provision to prevent Trump and the Trump family from raking in enormous amounts of money from their corrupt cryptocurrency schemes”.

然而，已經面對包括幾位民主黨人的反對派，包括參議員伊麗莎白·沃倫（Elizabeth Warren），他們擔心法案草案“不包括防止特朗普和特朗普家族從其腐敗的加密貨幣計劃中賺取巨額資金的任何規定”。

Ms Warren’s Banking Committee staff also circulated another memo on Thursday, warning that “many of the new changes are fig leaves for significant flaws that jeopardise consumer protection and national security”.

沃倫（Warren）女士的銀行委員會工作人員還在周四發行了另一份備忘錄，警告說：“許多新的變化都是無花果葉子，因為它造成了危害消費者保護和國家安全的重大缺陷”。

Amid these observations, Bitcoin rose to as high as $107,000 on Sunday before it consolidated to its current price over the following day.

在這些觀察結果中，比特幣在周日上漲至107,000美元，然後在第二天合併至當前價格。
