BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes says the United States is unlikely to add more Bitcoin (BTC) to its reserves despite recent reports.

Bitmex聯合創始人亞瑟·海斯（Arthur Hayes）表示，儘管最近有報導，美國不太可能在其儲備中增加更多比特幣（BTC）。

In a May 1 interview with American crypto news outlet Blockware Solutions, Hayes said he doubts the country will be able to openly print money to buy Bitcoin due to its high debt levels and the stereotype behind “Bitcoin bros.”

海斯在5月1日接受美國加密新聞媒體塊解決方案的採訪中，海斯說，由於其高債務水平和“比特幣兄弟”背後的刻板印象，他懷疑該國能夠公開打印資金購買比特幣。

“I’m not really into the whole Strategic Reserve situation. I think it’s a bit of a meme that's gone too far, but people like it, so let them have it,” said the BitMEX cofounder.

Bitmex Cofounder說：“我並不是真正地喜歡整個戰略儲備的狀況。我認為這有點模因太過分了，但是人們喜歡它，所以讓他們擁有它。”

“The United States is a deficit country; the only way they can do a Strategic Reserve is not sell the Bitcoin they took from people, and that’s 200,000. But I think it’s unlikely that they'll add to it.”

“美國是一個赤字國家；他們做一個戰略儲備的唯一途徑不是出售他們從人那裡拿走的比特幣，那是200,000。但是我認為他們不太可能增加它。”

However, Hayes said it’s hard to imagine any “properly elected” politician calmly announcing that the government plans to print money in order to buy BTC.

但是，海斯說，很難想像任何“正確選舉”的政治家冷靜地宣布政府計劃打印資金以購買BTC。

“Is that really what you want people to think about your policy?” he asked rhetorically.

“這真的是您希望人們對您的政策的看法嗎？”他用言辭問。

On March 6, US President Donald Trump signed an executive order to create a Bitcoin strategic reserve and digital asset stockpile in the US. The US holds 198,012 Bitcoin worth over $18 billion, according to recent data. The reserve is primarily formed of Bitcoin seized in criminal and civil cases, including significant amounts from the Silk Road and Bitfinex hack cases.

3月6日，美國總統唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）簽署了一項行政命令，以在美國創建比特幣戰略儲備和數字資產庫存。根據最近的數據，美國擁有198,012個比特幣，價值超過180億美元。該保護區主要由在刑事和民事案件中查獲的比特幣組成，其中包括絲綢之路和Bitfinex Hack案件的大量數量。

However, many crypto industry leaders believe that if the US government starts buying Bitcoin, it could set off an aggressive domino effect.

但是，許多加密行業領導者認為，如果美國政府開始購買比特幣，它可能會引發激進的多米諾骨牌效應。

For example, Sergej Kunz, co-founder of exchange aggregator 1inch, said during Cointelegraph’s LONGITUDE event in Dubai that if the US were to start buying Bitcoin for a strategic reserve, even smaller countries may soon struggle to acquire the cryptocurrency.

例如，Exchange Contregator 1 Inch的聯合創始人Sergej Kunz在迪拜舉行的Cointelegraph經度活動中說，如果美國開始為戰略儲備購買比特幣，那麼即使較小的國家也可能很快就難以獲得加密貨幣。

“I’m pretty sure we’ll soon see countries battling over who owns more Bitcoin. The US will start.”

“我很確定我們很快就會看到各國正在爭奪誰擁有更多比特幣。美國將開始。”
