Once a cryptocurrency sceptic, Mr Trump emerged as one of the sector's biggest backers during his 2024 presidential campaign with promises to establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve and to take a friendlier approach towards crypto than his predecessor.

特朗普曾經是一個加密貨幣懷疑論者，在2024年總統大選期間，特朗普先生成為該行業最大的支持者之一，並承諾建立戰略性比特幣儲備，並採取比他的前任更友好的方法。

Mr Trump last week also hosted a black-tie gala at his golf club in northern Virginia for 220 of the top investors of the $Trump meme coin. The event drew conflict-of-interest concerns that the president was mixing his business and political interests.

特朗普上週還在北弗吉尼亞州的高爾夫俱樂部舉辦了一個黑領帶盛會，其中有220美元的特朗普模因硬幣的220名。該活動引起了利益衝突的擔憂，即總統正在混合他的業務和政治利益。

Among last week's guests was Justin Sun, a crypto billionaire who came first in the so-called competition to win a seat at the gala. Mr Sun is a backer of World Liberty Financial, the crypto company run by Zach Witkoff. He is the son of Steve Witkoff, Mr Trump's special envoy to the Middle East.

上週的客人中有加密貨幣億萬富翁賈斯汀·孫（Justin Sun），他在所謂的比賽中首次贏得了在晚會上贏得席位。 Sun先生是由Zach Witkoff經營的加密公司World Liberty Financial的支持者。他是特朗普先生在中東特朗普特使史蒂夫·維科夫（Steve Witkoff）的兒子。

At the gala, Mr Trump accepted the $Trump coin, which is a new meme coin that launched in March with the symbol ‘$Trump.’ The coin’s website describes it as a "community-driven cryptocurrency that embodies the spirit of President Trump: bold, direct, and focused on delivering maximum value."

在晚會上，特朗普先生接受了特朗普硬幣，這是一種新的模因硬幣，並於3月以“ $ trump”符號推出。硬幣的網站將其描述為“由社區驅動的加密貨幣體現了特朗普總統的精神：大膽，直接和專注於賦予最大價值”。

The token, which trades on several cryptocurrency exchanges, aims to raise $1 billion to support Trump Media's new initiative to create a Bitcoin treasury.

代幣進行了幾次加密貨幣交易所進行交易，旨在籌集10億美元，以支持特朗普媒體的新計劃，以創建比特幣財政部。

During his campaign, Mr Trump also promised to take a friendlier approach towards crypto than his predecessor.

在競選期間，特朗普還答應比他的前任採取更友好的方法。

"We will be the generation that finally brings the dollar all the way back to the standard it deserves to have, and we will create a strategic Bitcoin reserve to protect the dollar's value," he said in February while announcing his re-election bid.

他在2月宣布重新選舉的同時說：“我們將成為最終將美元一路帶回應有的標準的一代，我們將創建一個戰略性的比特幣儲備來保護美元的價值。”

The president's campaign team later launched a $Trump token, which is a community-driven cryptocurrency that embodies the spirit of President Trump: bold, direct, and focused on delivering maximum value.

總統的競選團隊後來推出了一個$特朗普的代幣，這是一個社區驅動的加密貨幣，體現了特朗普總統的精神：大膽，直接，專注於實現最高價值。

"We are thrilled to announce this strategic partnership with leading institutional investors to support Trump Media & Technology Group's growth and innovation," said Trump Media president and director, Lara Trump.

特朗普媒體總裁兼董事勞拉·特朗普（Lara Trump）說：“我們很高興宣布與領先的機構投資者建立這種戰略夥伴關係，以支持特朗普媒體集團的增長和創新。”

“這項投資將使我們能夠擴展我們的內容產品，增強我們的技術平台，並繼續為我們龐大的支持者社區提供引人入勝且有意義的體驗。”

The subscription offering is expected to close in the third quarter of 2025, subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals.

訂閱產品預計將在2025年第三季度關閉，但要獲得習慣結案條件和監管批准。
