美國總統唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）在周四晚上舉行了一場封閉的活動

包括前NBA明星拉馬爾·奧多姆（Lamar Odom）在內的加密愛好者在華盛頓附近的北弗吉尼亞州的特朗普國家高爾夫俱樂部參加了晚宴。

U.S. President Donald Trump held a closed-door event on Thursday evening for 220 crypto investors who bought his memecoin, despite bipartisan concerns from lawmakers that he is selling access to amass personal wealth, reports NBC News.

NBC News報導，美國總統唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）在周四晚上為220名加密投資者舉行了封閉的活動，他們購買了他的紀念品，儘管立法者對他正在出售積累的個人財富的關注。

Crypto enthusiasts, including former NBA star Lamar Odom, attended a dinner at the Trump National Golf Club in Northern Virginia, close to Washington. Around 100 protesters lined the road to the entrance, attempting to shame those in attendance with shouts and signs like "Trump is a traitor," "Crypto corruption," and "America is not for sale."

包括前NBA明星拉馬爾·奧多姆（Lamar Odom）在內的加密愛好者在北弗吉尼亞州的特朗普國家高爾夫俱樂部參加了晚宴，靠近華盛頓。大約有100名抗議者在通往入口的道路上排成一排，試圖以“特朗普是叛徒”，“加密腐敗”和“美國不出售”之類的大喊和標誌來羞辱那些出席會議的人。

Odom, a former Los Angeles Lakers player, walked past protesters with an umbrella, according to a post on his X account where he promoted his own memecoin. Others arrived in luxury SUVs with tinted windows, and many wore tuxedos to the event, which was called "black tie optional."

奧多姆（Odom）是前洛杉磯湖人隊的球員，他用傘上的一篇文章在他的X帳戶上宣傳了自己的成員。其他人則帶著有色窗戶到達豪華SUV，許多人穿著燕尾服參加了活動，這被稱為“黑色領帶可選”。

To secure a spot, the mostly anonymous participants needed to be among the 220 largest holders of the $TRUMP coin, with the average participant spending $1.8 million, according to blockchain analytics firm Nansen.

為了確保一個位置，大多數匿名參與者需要是$特朗普硬幣的220個最大持有人之一，平均參與者花費了180萬美元。

Two Trump-affiliated companies own 80% of the $TRUMP coin project. While their ability to sell is limited in the short term, the project's creators receive a commission on every transaction. According to research firm Chainalysis, these commissions have amounted to over $324 million since January. The exact amount that Trump will personally receive is unknown.

兩家特朗普附屬公司擁有$特朗普硬幣項目的80％。儘管他們的銷售能力在短期內受到限制，但該項目的創建者在每筆交易中都會獲得佣金。根據研究公司的鏈分析，自1月以來，這些佣金已超過3.24億美元。特朗普親自獲得的確切數量尚不清楚。

"Every time a transaction happens, he gets a transaction fee? It's just unconscionable what he's doing," said Ken Papay, a former U.S. Treasury official who was among the protesters outside the event.

“每次發生交易時，他都會收取交易費？這只是他在做什麼，”肯·帕佩（Ken Papay）說，他曾是美國財政部官員，他是活動以外的抗議者。

"He's using the presidency to make himself and his family wealthier. It's just wrong for that to be happening in our country," added Papay, 73.

Papay補充說：“他正在利用總統職位使自己和家人變得更富有。

Trump arrived at the dinner by helicopter and departed the event the same way, without speaking to reporters - and, according to one of them, barely spoke to those in attendance. A 32-year-old man from Austin, Texas, who declined to provide his name, stated that Trump spoke for about 15 minutes.

特朗普由直升機到達晚餐，並以同樣的方式離開了活動，而無需與記者說話 - 據其中一個人說，幾乎沒有與出席的人交談。一名來自德克薩斯州奧斯丁的32歲男子拒絕提供他的名字，他說特朗普說了大約15分鐘。

The man mentioned that Trump did not announce any new cryptocurrency policy but rather spoke positively about a potential bitcoin reserve and positioned himself as a supporter of cryptocurrency.

該人提到特朗普沒有宣布任何新的加密貨幣政策，而是對潛在的比特幣儲備進行了積極的講話，並將自己定位為加密貨幣的支持者。

According to the person, most people at the event did not have the opportunity to speak with Trump or take a picture with him, and he left immediately after finishing his speech.

根據該人的說法，大多數活動中的大多數人都沒有機會與特朗普交談或與他合影，他在演講後立即離開。

"He flew in and flew out by helicopter. We didn't get to shake his hand or anything like that, but it was a really interesting group of crypto people all in one room," the person said.

該人說：“他飛進了直升機。我們沒有握手或類似的東西，但這是一群非常有趣的加密貨幣人群。”

The dinner was advertised on the website as "intimate" and "the most exclusive invitation in the world."

晚餐在網站上宣傳為“親密”和“世界上最獨特的邀請”。

The menu for the night included "Trump's organic field green salad," filet mignon, roasted halibut, and lava cake. A photo posted by one attendee, known on the social media platform X as @cryptoo_bear, shows guests receiving commemorative hats and a card.

夜晚的菜單包括“特朗普的有機田綠色沙拉”，菲力牛排，烤大比目魚和熔岩蛋糕。一張由一位與會者發布的照片​​，在社交媒體平台X上稱為@cryptoo_bear，向客人展示了收到紀念帽和卡片的客人。

In another post by @cryptoo_bear, written in Japanese, the user expressed disappointment with Trump's participation.

在用日語撰寫的@cryptoo_bear的另一篇文章中，用戶對特朗普的參與表示失望。

"After a speech that lasted just under 30 minutes, President Trump danced his way out of the room," the user wrote. "The initial explanation was that we would walk around the tables and take souvenir photos at each other's table, but for some reason, that didn't happen. It's a bit disappointing."

用戶寫道：“經過不到30分鐘的演講，特朗普總統跳出了房間。” “最初的解釋是，我們會在桌子上走來走去，在彼此的桌子上拍攝紀念品照片，但是由於某種原因，這並沒有發生。這有點令人失望。”

Trump noted the event on his social media platform, Truth Social.

特朗普在他的社交媒體平台上指出了這一事件，真相社交。

"The U.S. is massively dominating Cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, etc., and we will continue to do so!" he wrote.

“美國在加密貨幣，比特幣等方面都有很大的主導地位，我們將繼續這樣做！”他寫道。

After returning to the White House on Thursday evening, Trump told reporters that the event was "good, very good."

在周四晚上返回白宮後，特朗普告訴記者，活動“很好，很好”。

The event has raised concerns among both parties in Congress.

該活動引起了國會雙方之間的關注。

Senator Cynthia Lummis, R-Wyo., said this month that the exclusive dinner "makes me wonder," and Senator Thom Tillis, R-N.C., said the dinner concept was "abstract, hard to understand."

R-Wyo。參議員辛西婭·盧米斯（Cynthia Lummis）本月表示，獨家晚宴“讓我感到奇怪”，而參議員托姆·蒂利斯（RN.C.）說，晚餐概念是“抽象的，很難理解”。

Senator Chris Murphy, D-Conn., slammed the project at a press conference earlier Thursday.

D-Conn。參議員克里斯·墨菲（Chris Murphy）在周四早些時候的新聞發布會上抨擊了該項目。

"This is the most corrupt White House in the history of the country," Murphy said, joined by other lawmakers. "Just because corruption is happening publicly, where everyone can see it, doesn't mean it's not rampant predatory corruption."

墨菲說：“這是該國歷史上最腐敗的白宮。” “僅僅因為腐敗正在公開發生，每個人都可以看到它，並不意味著它不是猖ramp的掠奪性腐敗。”

White House press secretary Anna Kelly said this week that Trump did not act to enrich himself.

白宮新聞秘書安娜·凱利（Anna Kelly）本週表示，特朗普沒有採取行動來豐富自己。

"President Trump acts only in the interests of the American public - that is why they overwhelmingly re-elected him to this position, despite years of lies and false accusations against him and his business by the fake media," she said.

她說：“特朗普總統僅出於美國公眾的利益而行動 - 這就是為什麼他們壓倒性地將他當選為這一立場，儘管有多年的謊言和虛假的指控對他和他的業務被假媒體。”
