特朗普回應批評，即他在辦公室時通過加密貨幣冒險豐富了自己

唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）在接受NBC的媒體播出的Kristen Welker的採訪時，唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）回應了批評，即他在任職期間通過Crypto Ventures豐富了自己。

Former President Donald Trump was interviewed by Kristen Welker on NBC’s Meet the Press on May 4. They discussed several topics, including the criticism that Trump is profiting from crypto ventures while in office.

前總統唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）在5月4日在NBC的會議媒體上接受了克里斯汀·韋爾克（Kristen Welker）的採訪。他們討論了幾個主題，包括批評特朗普在任職期間從Crypto Ventures中獲利的批評。

Trump responded, “I’m not profiting from anything. I’m not profiting. I own stock in various companies and if the stock market goes up, I guess I’m profiting.”

特朗普回答說：“我沒有從任何東西中獲利。我沒有獲利。我在各種公司中擁有股票，如果股市上漲，我想我正在獲利。”

When asked directly if he made money from the TRUMP token, which is named after him and trades on the Stellar blockchain, Trump replied, “I haven’t even looked. Is it up or down?”

當直接被問及他是否從特朗普代幣中賺錢，該代幣以他的名字命名並在恆星區塊鏈上進行交易時，特朗普回答說：“我什至沒有看過。這是上升還是向下？”

The TRUMP memecoin was launched on Jan. 17, just days before Trump’s second presidential term began. It surged to $73.43 by Jan. 19, a day before inauguration. But the hype faded fast. The token dropped nearly 85% and now trades around $11.35.

特朗普紀念因素於1月17日發行，就在特朗普第二個總統任期開始的前幾天。到1月19日，即就職典禮前一天，它上漲至73.43美元。但是炒作逐漸消失。代幣下降了近85％，現在交易約為11.35美元。

Interestingly, Trump appeared unaware of the token’s current price during the interview, asking multiple times how much it was worth.

有趣的是，特朗普在採訪中似乎沒有意識到令牌目前的價格，詢問多次值得多少。

According to CoinGecko and filings, two Trump-linked entities — CIC Digital LLC and Fight Fight Fight LLC — own 80% of the TRUMP token’s 1 billion supply. These tokens are locked and will be gradually released by 2028. The first release of 40 million tokens, valued at $454 million, occurred on April 18.

根據Coingecko和Fileings的說法，兩個與特朗普有聯繫的實體-CIC Digital LLC和Fight Fight Fight LLC - 擁有特朗普代幣10億個供應的80％。這些令牌已被鎖定，並將在2028年逐漸發布。 4000萬個令牌的首次發行為4.54億美元，於4月18日發生。

Trump’s crypto foray has generated at least $350 million in revenue, including $314 million from token sales and another $36 million from fees, according to a Financial Times analysis from March.

根據《金融時報》（Financial Times）的一項分析，特朗普的加密貨幣企業至少產生了3.5億美元的收入，其中包括代幣銷售額的3.14億美元，另外3600萬美元的收入。

He’s faced criticism from both parties, including Republican Senators Cynthia Lummis and Lisa Murkowski, especially after TRUMP holders were offered a chance to dine with the president on May 22.

他面臨來自雙方的批評，包括共和黨參議員辛西婭·盧米斯（Cynthia Lummis）和麗莎·默科夫斯基（Lisa Murkowski），尤其是在5月22日特朗普持有者有機會與總統一起用餐之後。

Asked if he would contribute crypto earnings the same way he donates his presidential salary, Trump said, “I never thought of that. Should I contribute all of my real estate that I’ve owned for many years if it goes up a little bit because I’m president? I don’t think so.”

當被問及他是否會像捐贈總統工資一樣捐款加密貨幣收入時，特朗普說：“我從沒想過。

Trump reiterated his pro-crypto stance in the same interview. “I want crypto. I think crypto’s important because if we don’t do it, China’s going to. It’s new, it’s very popular, it’s very hot.”

特朗普在同一次採訪中重申了他的親克萊普特立場。 “我想要加密貨幣。我認為加密貨幣很重要，因為如果我們不這樣做，中國就會去。它是新的，非常受歡迎，非常熱。”

According to nonprofit State Democracy Defenders Action, Trump’s crypto involvement has increased his net worth. The group said he now holds $2.9 billion in digital assets — around 37% of his total wealth.

根據非營利國家民主捍衛者的行動，特朗普的加密參與增加了他的淨資產。該組織表示，他現在持有29億美元的數字資產，約佔他總財富的37％。

“Rather than divest his crypto assets to avoid any possible conflict of interest, President Trump seems to have positioned himself to maximize profiting from them,” the group noted, urging Congress to act.

該組織指出：“特朗普總統似乎並沒有剝離他的加密資產以避免任何可能的利益衝突，而是將自己定位為最大程度地從中獲利。”
