Buyers from as far away as China and Taiwan are converging on Thursday on President Trump's private country club, on the rolling hills overlooking the Potomac River just outside the nation's capital, for an exclusive dinner with the former president.

來自中國和台灣遠處的買家週四在特朗普總統的私人鄉村俱樂部匯聚在俯瞰美國首都以外的波托馬克河的私人鄉村俱樂部，與前總統共享了獨家晚宴。

Among those who will be in attendance is China-born crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun, who is the last-minute winner of the dinner in a fundraising contest with his $18.5 million wallet, and who is also the largest publicly known investor and an adviser to World Liberty Financial, the Trump family's crypto platform, which has made them hundreds of millions of dollars.

將會出庭的人包括中國的加密企業家賈斯汀·孫（Justin Sun），他是籌款大賽中的最後一分鍾冠軍，他的籌款活動是他的1,850萬美元的錢包，他也是最大的公開投資者，也是世界自由金融的顧問，是特朗普家族金融的顧問，這是特朗普家族的加密平台，這使他們成為了數百萬美元的domlears。

On Wednesday, Sun posted a video of himself visiting the Executive Office Building, next to the White House. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission recently paused its 2023 case against Sun over fraud allegations, which Sun has denied.

星期三，孫發布了一段視頻，其中訪問了白宮旁邊的行政辦公大樓。美國證券交易委員會最近暫停了其2023年針對太陽的欺詐指控的案件，太陽否認了。

Sun declined to comment but posted on X that he is "grateful for the invitation." The SEC did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

太陽拒絕發表評論，但在X上張貼說他“感謝邀請”。 SEC沒有立即回應置評請求。

In total, investors have spent an estimated $148 million on the $TRUMP meme coin to secure their seats at the dinner, and the top-25 holders have contributed more than $111 million, according to crypto intelligence firm Inca Digital. These top holders will enjoy a private VIP reception with Trump, and the four largest investors will also receive a limited edition Trump Tourbillon watch that sells for $100,000.

據加密情報公司Inca Digital稱，投資者總共花費了大約1.48億美元的特朗普模因硬幣上的1.48億美元，以確保他們在晚宴上獲得席位，而前25名持有人的捐款超過1.11億美元。這些頂級持有人將與特朗普享受私人VIP接待，這四個最大的投資者還將獲得限量版的特朗普陀飛輪手錶，售價為100,000美元。

A company controlled by the Trump family and a second firm together hold 80% of the remaining supply of $TRUMP coins, and have so far earned $320.19 million in fees, including at least $1.35 million after the dinner announcement, according to blockchain analytics firm Chainalysis.

據Blockchain Analytics企業鏈分析公司稱，由特朗普家族和第二家公司控制的公司持有剩餘的$特朗普硬幣的80％，迄今為止，已收取32019萬美元的費用，包括晚餐宣布後至少135萬美元。

More than half of the 220 holders at the black-tie event are likely based outside of the United States, according to blockchain analysis.

根據區塊鏈分析，在Black-Tie事件中，在220個持有人中，超過一半可能是在美國以外的。

The White House maintains that Trump's assets are managed in a trust overseen by his children and that he has no role in the administration's operations.

白宮堅持認為，特朗普的資產是由他的孩子們監督的信託管理的，他在政府的行動中沒有任何作用。

The White House and the Trump Organization did not respond to requests for comment.

白宮和特朗普組織沒有回應置評請求。

Vincent Liu, chief investment officer of Taiwan-based crypto market maker Kronos Research, said he will arrive at the banquet with hopes of networking with other top holders and even possibly meeting the president. "That kind of access is rare, and it represents how digital assets are entering the mainstream."

總部位於台灣的加密推銷商Kronos Research的首席投資官Vincent Liu表示，他將與其他頂級持有人建立聯繫，甚至可能與總統會面。 “這種訪問很少見，它代表了數字資產如何進入主流。”

PRIVATE COCKTAIL RECEPTION

私人雞尾酒會

Sheldon Zia, founder of the Cayman Islands-based crypto exchange BitMart, posted on X that, as a top-25 holder, he is heading to not just the dinner but also a private VIP cocktail reception before the dinner and a private VIP tour the following day.

總部位於開曼群島的加密貨幣交易所Bitmart的創始人謝爾頓·齊亞（Sheldon Zia）在X上張貼，作為前25名持有人，他不僅要去晚餐，而且還要前往晚餐前的私人VIP雞尾酒會招待會和第二天的私人VIP巡迴演出。

An initial announcement said the 25 VIPs-the majority of their identities so far unknown-would tour the White House. That detail has since been deleted from the $TRUMP meme website (www.gettrumpmemes.com).

最初的公告稱，這25個貴賓 - 到目前為止，他們的大多數身份都將在白宮遊覽。此後，該細節已從$ Trump Meme網站（www.gettrumpmemes.com）中刪除。

There are also domestic Trump supporters such as Vincent Deriu, a 27-year-old New York consultant who said he already owns "many" Trump-branded watches, "a few pairs of" Trump sneakers, and "more than 50" Trump NFTs. Deriu will join the dinner on Thursday, for $116,000.

還有國內特朗普的支持者，例如27歲的紐約顧問文森特·德里（Vincent Deriu），他說他已經擁有“許多特朗普品牌的手錶”，其中幾對“特朗普運動鞋”和“超過50”的特朗普NFT。 Deriu將於週四以116,000美元的價格加入晚餐。

Democratic lawmakers, who will hold a press conference on Thursday in protest against the dinner, have demanded the release of all attendees' names, and issued a statement saying, "With foreign-linked wallets, untraceable transactions, and no press allowed, the event raises alarming questions about foreign influence, national security, and the growing corruption at the heart of Trump's crypto empire."

民主黨立法者將於週四舉行新聞發布會，以抗議晚宴，他要求釋放所有與會者的名字，並發表聲明說：“有了外國人的錢包，不可追踪的交易，不允許新聞發布，這次活動引起了關於外國影響，國家安全，國家安全以及越來越多的令人震驚的問題。”

Of all of the Trump family's cascade of new crypto ventures - which now include a crypto exchange, a stablecoin, a bitcoin mining operation and digital asset ETFs - the meme coin has sparked particularly strident criticism from Democratic lawmakers and government watchdog groups, who have decried it as "a race to the bottom for presidential grifting."

在特朗普家族的所有新加密貨幣級聯中，包括加密交易所，穩定幣，比特幣採礦業務和數字資產ETF-模因硬幣引發了民主黨立法者和政府監管機構的特別激烈的批評，他們被剝奪了總統的競爭總統的競爭。 ”

They say the coin allows the president to use an unregulated industry to enrich himself and court foreign influence by allowing anonymous foreign individuals to personally purchase access to Trump.

他們說，硬幣允許總統通過允許匿名外國個人親自購買特朗普的機會來利用不受管制的行業來豐富自己和外國的影響。

The White House has responded to such criticism in the past, with Anna Kelly, White House Deputy Press Secretary, telling Reuters: "President Trump's assets are in a trust managed by his children. There are no conflicts of interest."

白宮過去對這種批評作出了回應，白宮副秘書安娜·凱利（Anna Kelly）告訴路透社：“特朗普總統的資產是由他的孩子們管理的。沒有利益衝突。”

But even some Trump allies are starting to intervene, with Republican Senator Cynthia Lummis, a robust and staunch crypto industry advocate, saying the dinner gives her "pause."

但是，即使有一些特朗普的盟友也開始乾預，共和黨參議員辛西婭·盧米斯（Cynthia Lummis）是一個強大而堅定的加密行業擁護者，他說晚餐給了她“暫停”。
