特朗普承諾在他的弗吉尼亞高爾夫俱樂部為投資者提供新的加密貨幣 - 儘管聯邦法律

總統唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）從周四在特朗普國家高爾夫俱樂部（Trump National Golf Club）上裝飾著總統印章的講台上與投資者交談了他的特朗普模因硬幣的投資者，儘管聯邦法律禁止以錯誤地暗示聯邦贊助的方式使用聯邦法律。

President Donald Trump's use of the presidential seal at a dinner for the top investors in his $TRUMP meme coin could violate federal law, experts say.

專家說，總統唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）在他的$ trump Meme Coin的最高投資者的晚宴上使用總統印章可能會違反聯邦法律。

The seal can't be used in a way that could "convey a false impression of sponsorship of approval by the government," according to 18 U.S. Code Section 73. Violations can be penalized by a fine or up to six months in jail.

根據美國第73條第73條，可以通過“傳達對政府批准贊助的虛假印象”的方式使用印章。違反行為可以被罰款或最多六個月的監禁。

Trump spoke to the top 220 investors of his meme coin at his Virginia golf club after flying there from the White House on a military helicopter.

特朗普在他的弗吉尼亞高爾夫俱樂部（Virginia Golf Club）的模因硬幣的前220名投資者乘坐軍用直升機從白宮飛行後，在他的弗吉尼亞高爾夫俱樂部進行了交談。

"The past administration made your lives miserable," Trump told the attendees, referring to crypto regulations under Biden, according to The New York Times, adding, "we're honored to be working on helping everybody here."

據《紐約時報》報導，特朗普對參加者說：“過去的政府使您的生活痛苦。”指的是拜登的加密法規，並補充說：“我們很榮幸能夠幫助這裡的所有人。”

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt rejected any conflict-of-interest concerns about the dinner, telling reporters Thursday when asked if the administration would release the guest list that, "the president is attending it in his personal time, it is not a White House dinner, it’s not taking place here at the White House."

白宮新聞秘書卡羅琳·萊維特（Karoline Leavitt）拒絕了對晚餐的任何利益衝突問題，週四被問及政府是否會發布客人清單，“總統正在他的個人時間參加，這不是白宮晚餐，這不是在白宮舉行。”

Forbes has reached out to the White House about the seal being used at the dinner.

福布斯已經與白宮有關晚餐時使用的印章伸出援手。

The seal has been used as golf markers in at least five other Trump golf clubs, Forbes reported previously.

福布斯（Forbes）之前報導說，印章在至少五個特朗普高爾夫俱樂部中被用作高爾夫標記。

Trump's meme coin is among several crypto ventures he's launched since his first term in the White House, when he was a skeptic of the industry. The meme coin traded as high as $74.34 shortly after its debut in January, and fell to $14.44 on Thursday.

特朗普的模因硬幣是他自白宮第一個任期以來的幾項加密貨幣，當時他是該行業的懷疑論者。該模因硬幣在一月份首次亮相後不久就交易高達74.34美元，並在周四跌至14.44美元。

Guests at Thursday's dinner included Chinese crypto billionaire Justin Sun, the top investor in $TRUMP coins, former NBA player Lamar Odom, Korean crypto executive Sangrok Oh and Taiwanese crypto executive Vincent Liu, according to The New York Times. The top 25 investors were invited to a pre-dinner reception and tour.

據《紐約時報》報導，週四的晚宴上包括$特朗普硬幣的頂級投資者，前NBA球員Lamar Odom，Korean Cryean Crypto執行官Sangrok Oh和Taiwanese Crypto高管Vincent Liu。排名前25位的投資者被邀請參加餐前的招待會和巡迴演出。

Sun, who runs the crypto platform Tron and spent more than $40 million on $TRUMP coins, also spoke at the dinner.

Sun經營著加密貨幣平台Tron，並在晚餐上花費了超過4000萬美元的特朗普硬幣。

Sun—who was sued for fraud by the Securities and Exchange Commission in 2023—also invested $75 million in the Trump family's World Liberty Financial. The regulator paused litigation shortly after Trump took office.

Sun（2023年被美國證券交易委員會起訴欺詐）也向特朗普家族的世界自由金融投資了7500萬美元。特朗普上任後不久，監管機構暫停了訴訟。
