American Bitcoin, a cryptocurrency firm backed by the Trump family, plans to go public.

由特朗普家族支持的加密货币公司American Bitcoin计划公开。

The company announced Monday (May 15) that it had agreed to merge with Gryphon Digital Mining. Upon closing, the combined company, operating under the American Bitcoin brand and led by the company’s directors, will trade on the Nasdaq.

该公司周一（5月15日）宣布，已同意与Gryphon数字采矿合并。关闭后，这家合并后的公司将在美国比特币品牌下运营，并由公司董事领导，将在纳斯达克交易。

“Our vision for American Bitcoin is to create the most investable Bitcoin accumulation platform in the market,” Eric Trump, American Bitcoin’s co-founder and chief strategy officer, said in a news release. “Today’s announcement marks an important milestone in that journey, bringing us closer to offering every investor access to a purpose-built platform engineered for scale and long-term value creation in what we believe is one of the most important asset classes of our time.”

美国比特币联合创始人兼首席战略官埃里克·特朗普（Eric Trump）在新闻稿中说：“我们对美国比特币的愿景是建立市场上最可投资的比特币积累平台。” “今天的公告标志着这一旅程的重要里程碑，使我们更接近为每个投资者提供专门建造的平台，该平台设计为规模和长期价值创造，我们认为这是我们时代最重要的资产类别之一。”

Taking the company public is crucial toward expanding the business at the scale and speed it envisions, added Asher Genoot, board member of American Bitcoin and CEO of Hut 8, which launched the crypto firm earlier this year.

美国比特币的董事会成员兼HUT 8的首席执行官Asher Genoot补充说，将公司公众公开以扩展业务至关重要。

“Time-to-market was a critical factor, and this transaction enables an efficient path to public markets by combining with an entity that is structurally aligned with American Bitcoin’s mining-focused launch strategy,” Genoot said.

Genoot说：“上市时间是一个关键因素，这项交易通过与一个与美国比特币以采矿为重点的发射策略结合的实体结合来实现了公共市场的有效途径。”

The planned merger comes as the Trump family’s crypto ties are stirring political discontent in Washington. For example, a bill to promote stablecoins was blocked in the U.S. Senate last week over political disagreements and controversy surrounding President Donald Trump’s crypto ventures.

计划中的合并是随着特朗普家族在华盛顿引起的政治不满，而这次合并是随之而来的。例如，上周，美国参议院封锁了一项促进稳定币的法案，涉及围绕唐纳德·特朗普总统的加密货币的政治分歧和争议。

The bill fell short of the required votes following pushback from Democrats who were seeking a provision that would block Trump and other senior officials from profiting from crypto ventures while in office.

在寻求一项规定的民主党人的推回之后，该法案未能获得所需的选票，该规定将阻止特朗普和其他高级官员在任职期间从加密货币企业中获利。

As PYMNTS wrote, many Democrats still see stablecoin regulation as essential for consumer protection. Sen. Mark Warner, a Virginia Democrat who voted against the bill despite earlier acknowledging major progress in talks, said he hoped the issue could be revived.

正如PYMNTS所写的那样，许多民主党人仍然认为Stablecoin规定对于消费者保护至关重要。弗吉尼亚州民主党人马克·华纳（Mark Warner）参议员马克·沃纳（Mark Warner），尽管早些时候承认会谈的重大进展，但他希望这一问题能够恢复。

Also last week, a group of Senate Democrats wrote to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Attorney General Pam Bondi seeking answers about ties between the Trump family’s digital asset ventures related to cryptocurrency exchange Binance, which pleaded guilty in 2023 to violating money laundering and sanctions laws.

同样上周，一群参议院民主党人写信给财政部长Scott Bessent和总检察长Pam Bondi，寻求有关特朗普家族与加密货币交换二进制相关的数字资产合资企业之间关系的答案，这些资产交易所在2023年认罪，以违反洗钱和制裁法。

“Our concerns about Binance’s compliance obligations are even more pressing given recent reports that the company is using the Trump family’s stablecoin to partner with foreign investment companies,” the senators wrote.

参议员写道：“鉴于最近有报道称，该公司正在使用特朗普家族的Stablecoin与外国投资公司合作，我们对Binance的合规义务的关注更加紧迫。”
