埃里克·特朗普（Eric Trump）警告傳統金融機構，如果他們不採用區塊鏈，他們將在10年內滅絕

他與受訪者在迪拜講話時談到了傳統銀行系統的問題，並說他們很慢，昂貴，並且偏向於富人。

The executive vice president of the Trump Organization and son of U.S. President Donald Trump, Eric Trump, has issued a stark warning to the traditional financial institutions, saying that they have 10 years to adapt to blockchain or face extinction.

特朗普組織的執行副總裁和美國總統唐納德·特朗普（Eric Trump）的兒子埃里克·特朗普（Eric Trump）向傳統的金融機構發出了明顯的警告，稱他們有10年的時間適應區塊鍊或面臨滅絕。

In an interview with CNBC in Dubai, Trump discussed the flaws of the global banking system, which he describes as slow, expensive, and heavily skewed in favor of the wealthy. He argues that these flaws make the global banking infrastructure ripe for disruption through blockchain and decentralized finance (DeFi).

特朗普在接受迪拜的CNBC採訪時，討論了全球銀行體系的缺陷，他形容這是緩慢，昂貴且傾斜的偏向富人。他認為，這些缺陷使全球銀行基礎設施通過區塊鍊和分散財務（DEFI）成熟，以破壞。

Highlighting the transformative potential of blockchain technology, Trump said that unless banks evolve and adapt to the rising tide of blockchain integration, they will become obsolete in the upcoming decade.

特朗普強調了區塊鏈技術的變革性潛力，除非銀行不斷發展並適應區塊鏈整合的潮流，否則它們將在接下來的十年中變得過時。

“The modern financial system is broken. It’s slow, it’s expensive. If banks don’t watch what’s coming, they’re going to be extinct in 10 years,” Trump stated.

特朗普說：“現代金融體系破裂了。它很慢，很昂貴。如果銀行不觀察即將發生的事情，它們將在10年內滅絕。”

Highlighting the inefficiencies of the existing system, Trump took aim at SWIFT, the global network used for international payment, which he called “an absolute disaster.” In contrast, he explained that a blockchain-based system can perform the same functions better, faster, and cheaper, while also being more secure.

特朗普強調了現有系統的低效率，瞄準了Swift，這是用於國際支付的全球網絡，他稱之為“絕對災難”。相比之下，他解釋說，基於區塊鏈的系統可以更好，更快，更便宜，同時更加安全。

“There’s nothing that can be done on blockchain that can’t be done better than the current financial institutions. You can send money instantly, wallet to wallet, without fees or variability,” Trump added, showcasing the low-cost and high-speed capabilities of DeFi applications for peer-to-peer transactions without the involvement of intermediaries like banks.

特朗普補充說：“在區塊鏈上沒有什麼比目前的金融機構更好的做法。您可以立即將錢寄給錢包，而無需費用或可變性。”

Trump’s journey into the cryptocurrency world began with disillusionment toward the banking system, which he feels has become “weaponized” against ordinary people—especially those without a large balance or those with the “Make America Great Again” movement affiliation.

特朗普進入加密貨幣世界的旅程始於對銀行體系的幻滅，他認為這已經成為對普通百姓的“武器化”，尤其是那些沒有大平衡的人，或者那些具有“使美國再次變得偉大”運動的人。

The Trump family’s involvement in digital assets goes far beyond commentary or investments. Together with real estate billionaire Steve Witkoff, who now serves as a White House Middle East envoy, Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. have co-founded a crypto platform called World Liberty Financial. The platform recently announced plans to launch a U.S. dollar-backed stablecoin.

特朗普家族參與數字資產遠遠超出了評論或投資。現在，埃里克·特朗普（Eric Trump）和小唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump Jr.）與現在擔任白宮中東特使的房地產億萬富翁史蒂夫·維特科夫（Steve Witkoff）共同創立了一個名為World Liberty Financial的加密平台。該平台最近宣布了計劃推出以美元支持的Stablecoin的計劃。

Moreover, in March 2025, Eric Trump helped the co-founder of America Bitcoin, a mining venture developed in collaboration with Asher Genoot, CEO of Hut 8, to launch a new venture in the crypto mining industry. These moves showcase the family’s long-term commitment to building infrastructure in the crypto space.

此外，在2025年3月，埃里克·特朗普（Eric Trump）幫助了美國比特幣的聯合創始人，這是一家與Hut 8 Hut 8的首席執行官Asher Genoot合作開發的採礦企業，在加密貨幣礦業行業開設了一家新的合資企業。這些舉動展示了這個家庭對在加密空間中建立基礎設施的長期承諾。

Both Donald Trump and Melania Trump have also launched their own digital assets—TRUMP coin and MELANIA coin, respectively—which are marketed to fans and supporters of the family.

唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）和梅拉尼亞·特朗普（Melania Trump）也分別推出了自己的數字資產 - 特朗普硬幣和梅拉尼亞硬幣，分別向家族的粉絲和支持者銷售。

Trump’s recent comments come as the United Arab Emirates is quickly establishing itself as a global leader in the regulation and uptake of cryptocurrencies. Dubai, in particular, has drawn leading cryptocurrency exchanges, entrepreneurs, and institutional investors due to its advantageous government policies.

特朗普最近的評論是因為阿拉伯聯合酋長國迅速將自己確立為加密貨幣的監管和吸收的全球領導者。尤其是迪拜，由於其有利的政府政策，迪拜已吸引了領先的加密貨幣交易所，企業家和機構投資者。

Highlighting the pro-business attitude of the UAE, which is facilitating the influx of American businesses and institutions, Trump praised the nation's initiative.

特朗普強調了阿聯酋的親企業態度，促進了美國企業和機構的湧入，特朗普讚揚了該國的倡議。

Despite some critics who highlight the volatility and lack of regulation in the crypto market, Trump believes that adoption is inevitable.

儘管一些批評者強調了加密貨幣市場中的波動和缺乏監管，但特朗普認為採用是不可避免的。

“Governments and institutions will have no choice but to get involved or be left behind,” he concluded, signaling an urgent call for adaptation in the face of the advancing tide of blockchain technology.

他總結說：“政府和機構別無選擇，只能參與或被拋在後面。”他指出，面對區塊鏈技術的前進，緊急呼籲適應。

Although some central banks, such as the Bank of Italy, remain skeptical of crypto and stablecoins, major financial institutions like JP Morgan and Goldman Sachs have already begun integrating the blockchain into their operations.

儘管一些中央銀行（例如意大利銀行）仍然對加密貨幣和Stablecoins持懷疑態度，但JP Morgan和Goldman Sachs等主要金融機構已經開始將區塊鏈整合到其運營中。
