紐約市長 Eric Adams 重申了他對比特幣的支持，這反映了他在 2022 年首次決定將薪水兌換成加密貨幣時所面臨的懷疑。

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has doubled down on his support for Bitcoin, reflecting on the skepticism he faced when he first decided to convert his paychecks into cryptocurrency.

紐約市長埃里克·亞當斯加倍支持比特幣，這反映了他第一次決定將薪水兌換成加密貨幣時所面臨的懷疑。

At a recent media event, Adams said, “We should not be afraid of Bitcoin. Remember y’all laughed at me when I first got my Bitcoin? Who’s laughing now? Go look at my Bitcoin now.”

亞當斯在最近的媒體活動中表示：「我們不應該害怕比特幣。還記得我第一次拿到比特幣時你們都嘲笑我嗎？現在誰在笑？現在去看看我的比特幣。

The mayor's remarks come after he converted his first three paychecks as mayor into Bitcoin (BTC) and crypto in 2022. The move drew both praise and criticism, with many questioning the viability of the decision during a volatile market period.

在市長發表這番言論之前，他於2022 年將擔任市長的前三筆薪水兌換成比特幣(BTC) 和加密貨幣。一決定在市場動盪時期的可行性。

Addressing his critics, Adams said, “You all mock me… Now you wish you would have done it.”

亞當斯在面對批評者時說：“你們都在嘲笑我……現在你們希望自己能這麼做。”

Per the event, Adams sees cryptocurrencies as tools for innovation and economic empowerment, particularly in underserved communities.
