週一，唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）贊助的加密貨幣的前220名買家贏得了與總統的獨家晚宴

該加密貨幣稱為$ TRUMP，是在1月中旬成立的，經過數月的投資者購買了大量推廣的硬幣，市值超過200億美元。

The top 220 buyers of a Donald Trump-sponsored cryptocurrency will win access to an exclusive dinner with the president at Trump National golf club in Virginia on 22 May.

唐納德·特朗普贊助的加密貨幣的前220名買家將於5月22日在弗吉尼亞州的特朗普國家高爾夫俱樂部與總統一起參加獨家晚宴。

The cryptocurrency, called $TRUMP, was created in mid-January and boasts a market capitalization of over $2bn. A Trump family-linked company and another firm own a majority of the coins, according to Reuters.

該加密貨幣稱為$ TRUMP，於1月中旬成立，擁有超過200億美元的市值。據路透社報導，一家由特朗普與家庭有聯繫的公司和另一家公司擁有大部分硬幣。

“Congratulations, if you’re in the top 220 on the leaderboard we will be contacting you in the next 24 hours. Check your inbox (and spam folder) and expect a phone call for the Trump Official Dinner invitation and details,” the $TRUMP website announced mid-day on Monday.

“恭喜，如果您在排行榜上排名前220位，我們將在接下來的24小時內與您聯繫。查看您的收件箱（和垃圾郵件文件夾），並期望打來電話，以獲取特朗普官方晚餐邀請和詳細信息，” $特朗普網站週一宣布。

“President Trump will see YOU on May 22 at the Gala Dinner in Washington D.C.”

“特朗普總統將在5月22日在華盛頓特區舉行的晚宴上見到您”

Trump’s crypto enterprise has drawn criticism from Democrats, ethics watchdogs and even the Securities and Exchange Commission over potential conflicts of interest and allegations of corruption. The contest to dine with the president has also drawn concern as it could create an avenue for foreign influence.

特朗普的加密企業對潛在的利益衝突和腐敗指控提出了民主黨人，道德監管機構甚至證券交易委員會的批評。與總統用餐的競賽也引起了人們的關注，因為它可能會為外國影響力創造途徑。

The president’s involvement in the coin has been a closely guarded secret, with the administration refusing to comment on the matter. However, Trump himself has personally announced the winners of the dinner and the identities of the coins’ biggest buyers on his Truth Social platform.

總統參與硬幣是一個嚴密的秘密，政府拒絕對此事發表評論。但是，特朗普本人親自宣布了晚餐的獲獎者以及硬幣最大的買家在他的真相社交平台上的身份。

Trump also frequently promotes the coin to his 8.8m followers on the platform, urging them to buy the coin and mentioning it in posts about other topics.

特朗普還經常將硬幣推廣到他在平台上的880萬追隨者中，敦促他們購買硬幣並在有關其他主題的帖子中提及。

The coins are sold on decentralized exchanges, which are not subject to the same regulations as traditional stock exchanges and allow for greater anonymity among users.

這些硬幣是在分散交易所以與傳統證券交易所相同的法規規定的情況下出售的，並允許用戶之間的匿名性更高。

The Trump Organization and another firm, named on the incorporation papers as Fight Fight Fight LLC, own a majority of the coins and will split the proceeds from the sale of the $TRUMP tokens, according to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

根據向美國證券交易委員會的文件，特朗普組織和另一家公司在公司文件中命名為Fight Fight Fight LLC，擁有大部分硬幣，並將從出售$ Trump代幣的出售中將收益分開。

The Trump family-linked company is named on the filing as holding 51% of the coins and Fight Fight Fight LLC, which is named on the papers as sponsoring the coin, owns 49%.

特朗普與家族鏈接的公司在文件中被命名為51％的硬幣和Fight Fight Fight LLC，該公司在論文中以贊助硬幣的名字命名為49％。

The Trump Organization did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

特朗普組織沒有立即回應置評請求。

A judge in California recently dismissed a lawsuit that was filed against Trump and his company over the cryptocurrency venture. The lawsuit, which was filed by a group of Trump supporters, alleged that the president was using his position to enrich his family business and open himself up to foreign influence.

加利福尼亞州的一名法官最近駁回了針對特朗普及其公司對加密貨幣的訴訟。該訴訟是由一群特朗普支持者提起的，聲稱總統正在利用他的立場來豐富他的家族企業，並對外國影響開放。

In February, the judge ruled that the plaintiffs lacked standing to sue and that their claims were not yet ripe for adjudication.

2月，法官裁定原告缺乏訴訟，他們的主張尚未成熟進行裁決。

“This is a high-security, high-status event with President Trump,” the coin’s website states.

硬幣的網站指出：“這是與特朗普總統的高度安全，高級活動。”

“If you earned a seat at the table, it’s because you earned it.”

“如果您在桌子上贏得了座位，那是因為您贏得了它。”

The rules listed on the coin’s website suggest that the person who bought the coin can also send someone else instead of themselves, stating that if the buyer can’t attend they are able to list the name of a family member or friend to go in their place.

硬幣網站上列出的規則表明，購買硬幣的人也可以派遣別人而不是他們自己，並指出，如果買家不能參加，他們就可以列出家人或朋友的名字來代替他們的位置。

Although the coin’s buyer leaderboard is public, it doesn’t explicitly list the names of the winners. The site instead lists only the usernames and cryptocurrency wallet numbers of the buyers, which has led to speculation about who is vying for a place at the dinner and what political or financial interests they may harbor.

儘管硬幣的買家排行榜是公開的，但並未明確列出獲獎者的名字。相反，該網站僅列出了買家的用戶名和加密貨幣錢包，這導致人們猜測誰在晚餐中爭奪一個地方以及他們可能擁有的政治或財務利益。

Many of the top $TRUMP holders used foreign cryptocurrency exchanges that ban US users from purchasing the coins, according to Bloomberg’s analysis of the crypto wallets. Democrats and government ethics groups have alleged that the meme coin could allow foreign entities to purchase influence with the president, with Richard Blumenthal, a Connecticut senator, opening an ethics inquiry into Trump’s cryptocurrency activities.

根據彭博社對加密錢包的分析，許多$特朗普持有人都使用了外國加密貨幣交易所，禁止美國用戶購買硬幣。民主黨人和政府道德團體聲稱，模因硬幣可以允許外國實體與康涅狄格州參議員理查德·布魯門塔爾（Richard Blumenthal）一起購買影響力，並向特朗普的加密貨幣活動進行了道德探究。

“$TRUMP allows, and even invites, anyone in the world, including foreign governments and unscrupulous individuals, to directly enrich the President, while hiding potential payoffs in the pseudonymity of the blockchain,” Blumenthal wrote in a letter last week to Bill Zanker, who named on the papers of incorporation for the Fight Fight Fight LLC sponsoring the coin.

Blumenthal上週在上週寫信給Bill Zanker的信中寫道：“ $特朗普允許甚至邀請世界上的任何人，包括外國政府和不道德的人直接豐富總統，同時隱藏了區塊鏈的化名。”

The White House has claimed that the auction, which Trump has personally promoted on his Truth Social platform, will not influence the president’s policy choices. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters last week that Trump is “abiding by all conflict of interest laws” through his cryptocurrency endeavors.

白宮聲稱，特朗普親自在他的真相社會平台上促進的拍賣不會影響總統的政策選擇。白宮新聞秘書卡羅琳·萊維特（Karoline Leavitt）上週對記者說，特朗普通過他的加密貨幣努力“遵守所有利益衝突法”。

The price of the $TRUMP coin has fluctuated wildly since it debuted on 17 January. It initially rose to around $75 a coin before plummeting downward in the following weeks and then hovering around $12 at the time of the auction’s end. Around 750,000 buyers have lost money trading the coin, while the biggest buyers collectively spent millions to reach the top of the leaderboard.

自從1月17日首次亮相以來，特朗普硬幣的價格發生了巨大的波動。最初，它上升到每枚硬幣75美元左右，然後在接下來的幾週內下降，然後在拍賣結束時徘徊在12美元左右。大約有750,000名買家損失了交易硬幣的錢，而最大的買家共同花費了數百萬美元來達到排行榜的頂部。
