Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) is scrutinizing Howard Lutnick, President Donald Trump's nominee for secretary of Commerce, over his firm's relationship with Tether.

伊麗莎白·沃倫（Elizabeth Warren）（D-MA）正在審查唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）總統的商務部長霍華德·盧特尼克（Howard Lutnick），因為他的公司與Tether的關係。

In a letter to Lutnick, who is set to testify before the Senate Commerce Committee on Wednesday, Warren highlighted Tether's role in the crypto operation, which she said has "clear ties to criminal activity."

沃倫（Warren）在給參議院商務委員會作證的盧特尼克（Lutnick）的一封信中，沃倫（Warren）強調了特瑟（Tether）在加密貨幣行動中的作用，她說這與犯罪活動有著明確的聯繫。

"You played a critical role in the rise of Tether, a shadowy crypto firm with profits exceeding $7.7 billion in 2024," the Massachusetts Democrat wrote.

馬薩諸塞州民主黨人寫道：“您在Tether的崛起中發揮了至關重要的作用，Tether是一家陰暗的加密公司，在2024年的利潤超過77億美元。”

Cantor Fitzgerald serves as the U.S. Treasuries dealer for Tether, the world's leading stablecoin issuer, and the main custodian of its Treasury reserves.

坎托·菲茨杰拉德（Cantor Fitzgerald）擔任美國國債，全球領先的穩定發行人Tether及其財政部儲備的主要保管人。

Warren suggested that Cantor shares responsibility for illicit abuse of Tether's stablecoin (USDT) by criminals and terrorists.

沃倫（Warren）建議坎托（Cantor）對犯罪分子和恐怖分子對Tether的Stablecoin（USDT）的非法濫用負責。

"The use of Tether’s stablecoin has been the subject of over 150 investigations across four continents, including here with the Department of Justice and the Department of the Treasury," she wrote to Lutnick, who led Trump's transition team as he returned to the White House. 

她寫信給盧特尼克（Lutnick），他寫信給特朗普的過渡小組，他回到白宮，他寫信給盧特尼克（Lutnick），她在四大洲和財政部進行了150多次調查，其中包括在這裡與司法部和財政部一起進行150多次調查。 。

Lutnick testified on Wednesday that Cantor does not own a direct equity stake in Tether, though the firm does have a convertible bond.

盧特尼克（Lutnick）週三作證說，儘管公司確實有可轉換債券，但坎托（Cantor）不擁有Tether的直接權益股份。

However, Warren's letter also pointed to testimony from Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino, who stated that Cantor owns "a piece of Tether."

但是，沃倫（Warren）的信也指出了繫繩首席執行官保羅·阿多諾（Paolo Ardoino）的證詞，他說坎托（Cantor）擁有“一件繫繩”。

"I think we can be very clear on this. We don't expect any political favors by anyone," Ardoino said of Lutnick's political rise.

“我認為我們可以很清楚這一點。我們不希望任何人有任何政治支持，”阿多利諾談到盧特尼克的政治崛起時說。

During the confirmation hearing, Lutnick expressed support for greater U.S. auditing demands on stablecoin issuers.

在確認聽證會上，盧特尼克（Lutnick）表示支持美國對Stablecoin發行人的更大審計要求。
