特朗普舉辦了頂級紀念購買者的獨家晚會

唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）週四將在他的加密貨幣中為數百名頂級投資者舉辦一場私人活動，這是美國總統權力和個人業務的前所未有的私人活動。

Donald Trump will host on Thursday an exclusive gala for the top investors in his crypto memecoin, in a move that blends US presidential power with personal business dealings.

唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）將於週四舉辦一個在他的加密貨幣中為頂級投資者舉辦的獨家晚會，此舉將美國總統權力與個人商業交易融合在一起。

The gala at Trump's Virginia golf club near Washington will see the 220 biggest purchasers of the $TRUMP memecoin he launched in January invited for dinner.

華盛頓附近特朗普的弗吉尼亞高爾夫俱樂部的晚會將看到他在一月份邀請的$特朗普紀念品的220個最大的購買者。

The top 25 investors will get a private session with Trump before dinner, and a White House tour, according to an event website.

根據活動網站，前25名投資者將在晚餐前與特朗普舉行私人會議，並進行白宮巡迴演出。

This arrangement has drawn criticism as it could create a loophole in political influence rules.

這種安排引起了批評，因為它可能在政治影響力規則中造成漏洞。

Foreign actors, legally barred from contributing to Trump's political causes through official channels, can now potentially buy access and influence through the cryptocurrency.

外國演員在法律上通過官方渠道為特朗普的政治事業做出貢獻，現在可以通過加密貨幣購買訪問和影響力。

Data analytics firm Inca Digital has confirmed that many transactions occurred through international exchanges unavailable in the United States, which points to foreign buyers.

數據分析公司INCA Digital已確認，通過在美國不可用的國際交流發生了許多交易，這表明了外國買家。

Among them, Chinese-born crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun claims the top investor position, having pledged $20 million to the memecoin as part of his $93 million total investment in Trump-linked crypto ventures.

其中，出生於中國的加密企業家賈斯汀·孫（Justin Sun）聲稱是最高投資者的職位，作為他9300萬美元在特朗普與特朗普的加密貨幣投資的總投資的一部分，保證了2000萬美元。

Sun, founder of top 10 cryptocurrency TRON, was being probed by US authorities for market manipulation, but regulators, now appointed by Trump, agreed in February to a 60-day pause to seek a settlement.

美國當局對市場操縱進行了調查，Sun是十大加密貨幣Tron的創始人，但現在由特朗普任命的監管機構於2月份同意了60天的停頓，以尋求解決方案。

According to the website Popular Information, a few weeks before that decision, Sun purchased $30 million in digital assets from a venture backed by Trump and his family.

根據該網站的流行信息，在決定前幾週，Sun從特朗普及其家人的支持下購買了3000萬美元的數字資產。

"Honored to support @POTUS and grateful for the invitation to attend President Trump's Gala Dinner as his TOP fan!" Sun wrote Tuesday on X, saying he looked forward to "discussing the future of our industry."

“很榮幸支持@potus，並感謝邀請特朗普總統的盛大晚宴作為他的頂級粉絲！” Sun週二在X上寫道，說他期待“討論我們行業的未來”。

- More regulation?-

- 更多的法規？ -

Some Republicans have expressed concerns about the dinner, but most criticism has come from Democrats.

一些共和黨人對晚餐表示關注，但大多數批評來自民主黨人。

Senator Chris Murphy on Wednesday slammed the exclusive dinner as an opportunity for the world's wealthy including "foreign oligarchs" to get a "secret meeting"" with the US president as they seek favors and influence.

參議員克里斯·墨菲（Chris Murphy）週三抨擊了獨家晚宴，這是世界富人的一個機會，包括“外國寡頭”，在美國總統尋求幫助和影響力時與“秘密會議”。

"It's fundamentally corrupt -- a way to buy access to the President," Murphy stated on X.

墨菲在X上說：“這是從根本上腐敗的 - 一種與總統購買的方式。”

The White House retaliated against those who have made insinuations of impropriety.

白宮對那些對不當行為的暗示的人進行了報復。

"I think it's frankly ridiculous that anyone in this room would even suggest that President Trump is doing anything for his own benefit," Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said last week.

新聞秘書卡羅琳·萊維特（Karoline Leavitt）上周說：“我認為坦率地說，這個房間裡的任何人甚至都建議特朗普總統為自己的利益做任何事情。”

"He left a life of luxury and a life of running a very successful real estate empire for public service."

“他留下了奢侈的生活，並擁有一個非常成功的公共服務房地產帝國的生活。”

The dinner comes as the Senate is pushing through legislation to more clearly regulate cryptocurrencies, a long-sought request of the industry.

晚餐是隨著參議院的推動立法的推動，以更清楚地規範加密貨幣，這是該行業的長期要求。

Senators on Monday advanced a landmark bill known as the GENIUS Act that proposes a regulatory framework for stablecoins -- a type of crypto token seen as more predictable for investors as its value is pegged to hard currencies like the dollar.

參議員周一提出了一項具有里程碑意義的法案，稱為《天才法案》，該法案提出了一個針對穩定幣的監管框架 - 一種加密代幣對投資者來說更可預測，因為其價值與美元貨幣（如Dollar）掛鉤。

That legislation had faced roadblocks in part because of Trump's dabbling in cryptocurrencies -- a rising sector he once dismissed as a scam.

這項立法遭到了障礙，部分原因是特朗普在加密貨幣中涉足 - 他曾經被視為騙局的崛起部門。

His stance reversed during the 2024 presidential campaign when crypto tycoons, frustrated by perceived unfair treatment under the Biden administration, became major contributors to his campaign.

他的立場在2024年的總統大選中扭轉了，當時加密大亨因拜登政府的不公平待遇而感到沮喪，成為了他的競選活動的主要貢獻者。

The cryptocurrency industry struggled with significant scandals during Biden's presidency, most notably the collapse of the FTX crypto exchange and the 25-year fraud sentence for founder Sam Bankman-Fried.

在拜登（Biden）擔任總統期間，加密貨幣行業在重大醜聞中掙扎，最著名的是FTX加密交易所的崩潰，以及創始人山姆·班克曼（Sam Bankman）的25年欺詐判決。

As the stablecoin bill gains momentum in the Senate, Bitcoin reached a record high Wednesday of nearly $109,500.

隨著Stablecoin Bill在參議院的勢頭上獲得勢頭，比特幣在周三達到了近109,500美元的創紀錄。

Trump's newfound enthusiasm for digital currencies has expanded into multiple ventures led primarily by his eldest sons.

特朗普對數字貨幣的新發現的熱情已擴大到主要由他的長子領導的多個企業。

Their growing portfolio includes investments in Binance, a major crypto exchange whose founder seeks a presidential pardon to re-enter the US market.

他們不斷增長的投資組合包括對Binance的投資，Binance是一個主要的加密交易所，其創始人尋求總統赦免以重新進入美國市場。

This investment flows through World Liberty Financial, a Trump family-backed venture launched last September with significant Mideast deals.

這項投資流過世界自由金融，特朗普一家由家族支持的企業於去年9月成立，並進行了重要的中東交易。

The company's founding team includes Donald Jr. and Eric Trump alongside Zach Witkoff, son of Trump's diplomatic adviser.

該公司的創始團隊包括小唐納德（Donald Jr.）和埃里克·特朗普（Eric Trump）以及特朗普外交顧問的兒子扎克·維科夫（Zach Witkoff）。

President Trump has taken concrete steps to reduce regulatory barriers, including an executive order establishing a "Strategic Bitcoin Reserve" for government holdings of the leading digital currency.

特朗普總統採取了具體的步驟來減少監管障礙，包括一項行政命令，為政府持有領先的數字貨幣持有的“戰略比特幣儲備”。
