為唐納德·特朗普加密貨幣（Donald Trump Cryptocurrency）的220個最大投資者提供獨家晚宴：美國總統不僅與他的商業交易成為頭條新聞，而且還賺了數十億美元。

GD文化集團是一家小公司，擁有八名員工，為Tiktok的視頻平台分發內容。它具有“與中國的聯繫”，去年沒有收入

The small company GD Culture Group, which has eight employees and "connections to China," made no revenue last year, according to the New York Times (NYT).

根據《紐約時報》（NYT）的數據，該小型公司GD文化集團去年有八名員工和“與中國的聯繫”。

However, the group announced its intention to invest no less than 300 million dollars in Bitcoin and the meme coin $Trump. The US president only launched the latter cryptocurrency in January, just three days before his inauguration.

但是，該集團宣布打算投資不少於3億美元的比特幣和Meme Coin $ Trump。美國總統僅在就職典禮前三天才在一月份發起了後者的加密貨幣。

Whether the company follows up its announcement with words or not, the fact is that it is worthwhile for the well-heeled to invest money in the Trump family's business.

無論該公司是否用言語宣布宣布，事實是，富裕的人投資於特朗普家族的業務是值得的。

It was announced last month that the White House is planning a dinner for the 220 most important Trump Coin investors. Many of them apparently come from abroad, according to the NYT: countries such as Mexico, Singapore and Australia are mentioned.

上個月宣布，白宮正在計劃為220個最重要的特朗普硬幣投資者提供晚餐。根據紐約時報，其中許多人顯然來自國外：墨西哥，新加坡和澳大利亞等國家。

While donations to Trump's campaign are banned, investments in Trump's private businesses run under the radar. This was already the case during his first term in office, when, for example, potent clients from the Middle East rented entire floors in the 78-year-old's hotels for weeks.

雖然禁止向特朗普的競選活動捐款，但對特朗普的私人企業的投資在雷達下進行。在任期的第一學期中，情況已經如此，例如，來自中東的有力客戶在這家78歲的酒店租了整個樓層。

The investor dinner took place on May 22 at Trump's golf hotel in Potomac Falls, Virginia. The 25 people who bought the most $Trump were personally "received" by New Yorkers in the process, the "Guardian" knows. The invitees paid a total of 148 million dollars for the Republican's cryptocurrency.

投資者晚宴於5月22日在弗吉尼亞州波托馬克瀑布的特朗普高爾夫酒店舉行。 “監護人”知道，在紐約人中，購買了最多$ $的25個人被紐約人“接收”。受邀者總共為共和黨的加密貨幣支付了1.48億美元。

"Trump is marketing access to himself as a way to profit from his meme coin," said legal expert Richard Briffault. "People are paying to meet Trump and he is the supreme regulator. That's doubly corrupt. It's unprecedented. I don't think there's been anything like it in American history."

法律專家Richard Briffault說：“特朗普正在營銷自己的機會，這是從他的模因硬幣中獲利的一種方式。” “人們正在為與特朗普見面，他是最高的監管機構。這是雙重腐敗的。這是前所未有的。我認為美國歷史上沒有類似的東西。”

"Trump's crypto plans are deeply corrupt," said Democratic Senator Jeff Merkley. "He is selling access to his government and enriching himself in the process." Together with party colleagues, he is now demanding that the White House reveal who was present at this dinner in Virginia.

民主黨參議員傑夫·默克利（Jeff Merkley）說：“特朗普的加密計劃非常腐敗。” “他正在向政府出售機會，並在此過程中充實自己。”他現在與派對同事一起，要求白宮透露誰在弗吉尼亞州的晚宴上。

Trump's spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt has emphasized that her boss is abiding by all the rules that apply to the president with regard to conflicts of interest: "And I think the American public believes that it is absurd to suggest that this president is profiting from the presidency."

特朗普的女發言人卡羅琳·萊維特（Karoline Leavitt）強調，她的老闆遵守有關利益衝突的總統規則的遵守：“而且我認為美國公眾認為這位總統從總統任期中獲利是荒謬的。”

He added that Trump was holding the event on his "personal time": "It's not a White House dinner," Leavitt said. Lawyer Larry Noble from Amrican University disagrees: "Trump's cryptocurrency dealings appear to present the greatest conflicts of interest and opportunities for corruption that any president has ever faced."

他補充說，特朗普在他的“個人時間”上舉行了活動：“這不是白宮晚餐，”萊維特說。來自美國亞利大大學的律師拉里·諾布爾（Larry Noble）不同意：“特朗普的加密貨幣交易似乎呈現出最大的利益衝突和任何總統所面臨的腐敗機會。”

The problem is that the Trumps not only trade in the presidential meme coin, but they also make deals via the 60 percent family-owned company World Liberty Financial. The United Arab Emirates wants to invest in this cryptocurrency company, which was founded in the autumn.

問題在於，特朗普不僅在總統模因硬幣中進行貿易，而且還通過60％的家族擁有的公司世界自由金融達成交易。阿拉伯聯合酋長國希望投資於秋季成立的這家加密貨幣公司。

The investment, from which the Trumps will benefit, is worth two billion dollars to Abu Dhabi. By mid-March, the family is said to have earned 2.9 billion dollars with cryptocurrencies, according to calculations by the NGO State Democracy Defenders Action. The sum is likely to be significantly higher today.

特朗普將從中受益的投資對阿布扎比價值200億美元。根據非政府組織民主捍衛者行動的計算，到3月中旬，據說該家庭已經獲得了29億美元的加密貨幣。今天的總和可能會更高。

The group writes that there is no end in sight to the president's actions: "Trump appears to have positioned himself to profit as much as possible by adopting a less aggressive regulatory and enforcement program than his predecessor."

該組織寫道，總統的行動絲毫沒有目光：“特朗普似乎通過採用比他的前任不太積極的監管和執法計劃來將自己定位為盡可能多地獲利。”

The biggest investor in Trump's cryptocurrencies serves as a negative example: The Chinese Justin Sun has put 20 million dollars into $Trump and invested 75 million dollars in World Liberty Financial, which is why he was also present at the dinner on May 22, the Guardian knows.

特朗普的加密貨幣中最大的投資者是一個負面的例子：中國賈斯汀·孫（Justin Sun）將2000萬美元投入了$ trump，並投資了7500萬美元的世界自由金融，這就是為什麼他也出​​席了5月22日的晚宴。

The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has sued Sun for fraudulent manipulation of the market in connection with cryptocurrencies. After Trump relaxed oversight, the case has been on hold since the beginning of the year. There are said to have been talks about shelving the case.

美國證券交易委員會（SEC）已起訴Sun，以欺詐與加密貨幣有關的市場。特朗普放鬆監督之後，此案自今年年初以來一直擱置。據說已經有關於擱置此案的討論。

How are the Trumps still benefiting from the presidency? Melania Trump, for example, is said to be earning 28 million dollars from a film about the First Lady that Jeff Bezos is financing, according to the New York Times. The sum that the family has collected with cryptocurrencies is estimated at 320 million dollars.

特朗普仍然如何從總統職位中受益？據《紐約時報》報導，據說梅拉尼亞·特朗普（Melania Trump）從一部關於傑夫·貝佐斯（Jeff Bezos）融資的第一夫人的電影中獲得了2800萬美元。該家庭用加密貨幣收集的款項估計為3.2億美元。

In addition, there are gifts such as the luxury plane from Qatar, which is worth more than all the gifts that US presidents have ever received from abroad put together. "Forbes" estimates Donald Trump's wealth at 5.1 billion dollars in March, which is 1.2 billion more than in the previous year, when the 78-year-old was still campaigning.

此外，還有一些禮物，例如來自卡塔爾的豪華飛機，它的價值比美國總統從國外收到的所有禮物都要多。 “福布斯”估計，唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）的財富在3月份的財富為51億美元，比上一年多12億美元，當時這位78歲的年輕人仍在競選中。

These figures set alarm bells ringing among experts: "I've been watching and writing about corruption for 50 years, and my head is still spinning," says political scientist and author Michael Johnston, referring to the Trump family's fat businesses

這些數字使專家之間的警鐘響起：“我一直在看和寫腐敗50年，我的頭仍在旋轉。”
