漢彌爾頓在比特幣第二層區塊鏈上推出代幣化美國國債

加密新創公司 Hamilton 在比特幣第二層區塊鏈上推出了代幣化的美國國債。據該公司稱，這項創新舉措標誌著

Crypto startup Hamilton has made history by launching tokenized US Treasury bonds on Bitcoin layer-2 blockchains. The first transaction of the HUST tokens occurred on July 4.

加密新創公司 Hamilton 透過在比特幣第二層區塊鏈上發行代幣化的美國國債而創造了歷史。 HUST 代幣的第一筆交易發生於 7 月 4 日。

The tokens, dubbed Hamilton U.S. T-Bills (HUST), are now available on three Bitcoin layer-2 solutions: Core, Stacks, and Build on Bitcoin (BoB). According to the company, this marks a first in the crypto world.

這些代幣被稱為漢密爾頓美國國庫券 (HUST)，現已在三種比特幣第 2 層解決方案上提供：Core、Stacks 和 Build on Bitcoin (BoB)。據該公司稱，這在加密貨幣領域尚屬首次。

The initiative combines the stability of the Bitcoin network with the reliability of the US dollar, presenting a unique advantage in the decentralized finance (DeFi) landscape.

該舉措將比特幣網路的穩定性與美元的可靠性結合起來，在去中心化金融（DeFi）領域呈現出獨特的優勢。

Kasstawi, Hamilton’s CEO, expressed enthusiasm for this historic step towards financial independence, which also exposes investors to emerging markets like crypto.

Hamilton 執行長 Kasstawi 對邁向財務獨立的歷史性一步表示了熱情，這也讓投資者接觸到加密貨幣等新興市場。

“Hamilton is building the first RWA on Bitcoin. We’re bringing financial independence on Independence Day,” said Hamilton’s CEO in an X post.

「漢密爾頓正在比特幣上建立第一個 RWA。我們將在獨立日實現財務獨立。

The company also says it aims to bring stability, transparency, and liquidity to financial systems in emerging markets.

該公司還表示，其目標是為新興市場的金融體系帶來穩定性、透明度和流動性。

Hamilton U.S. T-Bills (HUST) will run on three Bitcoin Layer 2 platforms: Stacks, Core, and BoB. Brendon, a contributor to the Core project, expresses his excitement about this development in an X post.

漢密爾頓美國國庫券 (HUST) 將在三個比特幣第 2 層平台上運行：Stacks、Core 和 BoB。 Brendon 是 Core 計畫的貢獻者，他在 X 貼文中表達了他對這一發展的興奮。

This move reflects a growing trend of tokenized real-world assets (RWAs) participating in the Web3 economy. This innovation converts assets like real estate, securities, and T-Bills into digital tokens that can be traded, transferred, and used within decentralized platforms.

此舉反映了代幣化現實世界資產（RWA）參與 Web3 經濟的成長趨勢。這項創新將房地產、證券和國庫券等資產轉換為可以在去中心化平台內交易、轉讓和使用的數位代幣。

This trend is significant because it brings traditional assets into the digital space, making them more flexible. For instance, investors can now trade or leverage T-Bills on blockchain platforms.

這一趨勢意義重大，因為它將傳統資產帶入數位空間，使其更加靈活。例如，投資者現在可以在區塊鏈平台上交易或利用國庫券。

Moreover, the US Federal Reserve interest rates have made T-Bills competitive with stablecoin yields. T-Bills now offer similar returns but come with lower risk compared to stablecoins.

此外，聯準會利率使國庫券與穩定幣收益率具有競爭力。與穩定幣相比，國庫券現在提供類似的回報，但風險更低。

According to Defillama, the total value locked in RWAs is currently at $3.81 billion, with a total market value of over $29 billion. Hamilton predicted the RWA market could surge to $16 trillion by 2030.

據 Defillama 稱，目前 RWA 鎖定的總價值為 38.1 億美元，總市值超過 290 億美元。 Hamilton 預測，到 2030 年，RWA 市場可能會激增至 16 兆美元。

Bitcoin’s Evolving Ecosystem

比特幣不斷發展的生態系統

Since 2023, the Bitcoin network has introduced three token standards: Bitcoin itself, Ordinals, and Runes.

自 2023 年以來，比特幣網路引入了三種代幣標準：比特幣本身、序數和符文。

Launched early last year, Ordinals create non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on satoshis. In April 2024, Rune was launched to let people create new digital coins on the Bitcoin network.

Ordinals於去年初推出，在聰上創造不可取代的代幣（NFT）。 2024 年 4 月，Rune 推出，讓人們在比特幣網路上創建新的數位貨幣。

The increased traffic on the Bitcoin network has driven layer-2 development. Solutions like the Lightning Network aim to process BTC transfers faster than the main chain.

比特幣網路流量的增加推動了第二層的發展。像閃電網路這樣的解決方案旨在比主鏈更快地處理 BTC 傳輸。

Layer-2s also enable smart contract-dependent DeFi (BTCfi) on the Bitcoin network, expanding Bitcoin’s utility beyond simple transfers.

Layer-2 還可以在比特幣網路上實現依賴智能合約的 DeFi (BTCfi)，從而將比特幣的實用性擴展到簡單的轉帳之外。

Core DAO, one of HUST’s host platforms, operates both a layer-1 blockchain and a BTC layer-2 solution. It has gained support from major crypto exchanges like Bitget and MEXC.

Core DAO 是 HUST 的主機平台之一，同時運行第 1 層區塊鏈和 BTC 第 2 層解決方案。它獲得了 Bitget 和 MEXC 等主要加密貨幣交易所的支援。
