榮幸地支持@potus，並感謝@gettrumpmemes的邀請參加特朗普總統的盛大晚宴！作為$ trump的最高持有人，我很高興能與所有人建立聯繫，談論加密貨幣，並討論我們行業的未來。 🇺🇸

The attendees ranged from former NBA player Lamar Odom to crypto billionaire Justin Sun, who said he won first place in the dinner competition.

與會者從前NBA球員拉馬爾·奧多姆（Lamar Odom）到加密億萬富翁賈斯汀·孫（Justin Sun），他說他在晚宴比賽中贏得了第一名。

"It’s really nice to be here today with, like, everyone in crypto,” Sun in a video posted on X.

“今天，像加密貨幣中的每個人一樣，很高興能在這裡來這裡，” Sun在X上發布的視頻中。

Founder of the blockchain network Tron, the 34-year-old Sun already has at least one link to the president’s affairs. He is known as the biggest backer of World Liberty Financial, a crypto business run by CEO Zach Witkoff, son of Steve Witkoff, the president’s envoy to the Middle East.

區塊鍊網絡Tron的創始人，現年34歲的太陽已經至少有一個與總統事務的聯繫。他被稱為世界自由金融（World Liberty Financial）的最大支持者，這是由首席執行官扎克·維科夫（Zach Witkoff）經營的加密貨幣業務，史蒂夫·維科夫（Steve Witkoff）是中東總統特使的兒子。

Sun invested $75 million into World Liberty and helped bootstrap the project’s initial token launch by buying $30 million of the token (WLF). He's since appeared on stage at two separate conferences with World Liberty executives.

Sun向World Liberty投資了7500萬美元，並通過購買3000萬美元的代幣（WLF）來幫助Bootstrap該項目的初始代幣發布。此後，他與世界自由主管一起出現在兩個單獨的會議上。

“Justin, you've been instrumental in our success, so thank you,” Witkoff told Sun while onstage at a Dubai conference earlier this month that also included the president’s son Eric Trump.

“賈斯汀，您一直在我們的成功中發揮了作用，謝謝。” Witkoff在本月初在迪拜會議上的舞台上告訴Sun，其中還包括總統的兒子埃里克·特朗普（Eric Trump）。

The SEC previously sued Sun and his crypto companies for alleged fraud in 2023, but the case was paused in February.

SEC以前起訴Sun和他的加密貨幣公司在2023年涉嫌欺詐，但此案在2月暫停了。

Democrat lawmakers — including Senators Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.), Richard Blumenthal (D-Conn.), and Congresswoman Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) — pointed to the dinner and Trump's other crypto ties as examples of what they view to be the president's corruption.

民主黨議員 - 包括參議員伊麗莎白·沃倫（Elizabeth Warren），傑夫·默克利（D-Mass。

“Donald Trump’s dinner is an orgy of corruption,” Warren said Thursday. “That’s what this is all about. We are here today to speak about exactly one topic: corruption, corruption in its ugliest form.”

沃倫週四說：“唐納德·特朗普的晚餐是腐敗的狂歡。” “這就是全部。我們今天在這裡談論一個主題：腐敗，最醜陋的形式的腐敗。”

The White House has consistently maintained that there are no conflicts of interest, noting that Trump's assets are managed in a trust overseen by his children and he has no role in operations, and his press secretary repeated that point Thursday.

白宮一直堅持認為沒有利益衝突，並指出特朗普的資產是由他的孩子們監督的信託管理的，他在行動中沒有任何作用，他的新聞秘書周四重複了這一點。

"I have also stated previously from this podium that the president is abiding by all conflict of interest laws that are applicable to the president, and I think everybody, the American public believe it's absurd for anyone to insinuate that this president is profiting off of this," Trump press secretary Karoline Leavitt said.

特朗普新聞秘書卡羅琳·萊維特（Karoline Leavitt）說：“我還曾從這個講台上說過，總統遵守適用於總統的所有利益衝突法，我認為每個人，美國公眾都認為，任何人都認為這位總統正在從中獲利。”
