加密貨幣在 2024 年捲土重來，預計在 2025 年表現較好

直到籃子裡的數位貨幣（包括最古老和交易最多的比特幣）出現之前，加密貨幣對普通人和小規模投資者來說並不了解。

Cryptocurrency, a virtual or digital currency, gained immense popularity in 2024, particularly following Donald Trump's victory in the US Presidential election. Prior to 2024, crypto was largely a niche interest among investors. However, with the changing political landscape, crypto assets like bitcoin became accessible to Americans, much like stocks.

加密貨幣是一種虛擬或數位貨幣，在 2024 年獲得了巨大的受歡迎，特別是在唐納德·川普贏得美國總統大選之後。 2024 年之前，加密貨幣在很大程度上是投資者的小眾興趣。然而，隨著政治格局的變化，像股票一樣，美國人也可以使用比特幣等加密資產。

The incoming administration in Washington also promised to support the crypto industry with major legislative changes. As a result, investors holding bitcoin saw a 130 per cent gain since the beginning of the year. The price of the largest cryptocurrency soared past $100,000 after Trump's triumph in the November 2024 presidential elections. According to Coinmarketcap, the market value of all crypto rose by nearly $1.7 trillion.

華盛頓即將上任的政府也承諾透過重大立法改革來支持加密產業。結果，持有比特幣的投資者自年初以來上漲了 130%。川普在 2024 年 11 月總統選舉中獲勝後，這種最大的加密貨幣的價格飆升至 10 萬美元以上。根據 Coinmarketcap 的數據，所有加密貨幣的市值增加了近 1.7 兆美元。

The US SEC's approval of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs earlier in the year also contributed to the crypto surge. This prompted financial giants like BlackRock and Fidelity to significantly increase their crypto investments.

美國證券交易委員會今年稍早批准比特幣和以太坊 ETF 也推動了加密貨幣的飆升。這促使貝萊德和富達等金融巨頭大幅增加了加密貨幣投資。

Bitcoin also rallied earlier in the year due to massive demand from newly launched spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Additionally, an enhanced blockchain infrastructure with improved scalability and security features attracted a host of new users.

由於新推出的現貨比特幣交易所交易基金（ETF）的龐大需求，比特幣在今年稍早也出現上漲。此外，具有改進的可擴展性和安全功能的增強型區塊鏈基礎設施吸引了大量新用戶。

Crypto's upward movement began around the US Presidential election, when Trump promised to establish a crypto presidential advisory committee to draft robust regulations, enable individuals to mine bitcoin, allow self-custody of digital assets, and reduce government oversight.

加密貨幣的上升運動始於美國總統大選前後，當時川普承諾建立一個加密貨幣總統諮詢委員會來起草強有力的法規，使個人能夠開採比特幣，允許數位資產的自我託管，並減少政府監管。

He also proposed a strategic bitcoin reserve to position the US as the dominant “Bitcoin superpower.” The US President proposed using bitcoin reserves to reduce the US' national debt.

他還提出了比特幣戰略儲備，將美國定位為主導的「比特幣超級大國」。美國總統提議使用比特幣儲備來減少美國公債。

While bitcoin is often associated with cryptocurrency, Pepe - a token inspired by the meme frog - emerged as the top performer in 2024, with a market capatilisation of over $5 billion.

雖然比特幣通常與加密貨幣聯繫在一起，但 Pepe（一種受 meme 青蛙啟發的代幣）在 2024 年成為表現最佳的代幣，市值超過 50 億美元。

Pepe soared by a staggering 1,570.7 per cent, reaching a market cap of $9 billion. Another significant gainer was SUI, the native token for the Sui blockchain, which posted a remarkable 509 per cent gain.

佩佩的股價飆升了 1,570.7%，市值達到 90 億美元。另一個大幅上漲的股票是 SUI，Sui 區塊鏈的原生代幣，漲幅高達 509%。

According to a Forbes report, Dogecoin, a favorite among meme coin enthusiasts and promoted by Elon Musk, surged 333.1 per cent. Meme coins like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu contributed significantly to the expansion of the crypto market in 2024.

根據《富比士》報道，由 Elon Musk 推廣、深受迷因幣愛好者喜愛的狗狗幣 (Dogecoin) 飆升了 333.1%。狗狗幣和柴犬等 Meme 幣對 2024 年加密市場的擴張做出了重大貢獻。

As 2025 approaches, market participants remain optimistic about the prospects for cryptocurrency, especially with the Trump-led administration returning to the White House. Many analysts and experts anticipate bitcoin to reach $200,000 by the end of 2025.

隨著 2025 年的臨近，市場參與者對加密貨幣的前景仍然樂觀，尤其是在川普領導的政府重返白宮的情況下。許多分析師和專家預計，到 2025 年底，比特幣價格將達到 20 萬美元。
