据报道，一群加密货币交易员在正式推出前几分钟就购买了梅拉尼亚·特朗普（Melania Trump）的纪念品，从而获得了约1亿美元的利润。

根据《金融时报》的一份报告，交易者花了260万美元在第一夫人于1月19日公开宣布该项目之前不久收购了1670万美元的梅拉尼亚代币。

A group of crypto traders reportedly managed to make around $100 million in profit by buying up Melania Trump’s memecoin just minutes ahead of its official launch last month.

据报道，一群加密货币交易员在上个月正式发布前几分钟就购买了梅拉尼亚·特朗普（Melania Trump）的纪念品，从而赚了约1亿美元的利润。

As reported by the Financial Times, the traders collectively spent $2.6 million to acquire 16.7 million $MELANIA tokens shortly before the former First Lady announced the project on January 19. The price of the token climbed from roughly $2.00 to $12.95 following the announcement, an increment of 550%, and the traders sold most of their holdings within 12 hours.

据《金融时报》报道，交易者共同花了260万美元，在1月19日前第一夫人宣布该项目之前不久收购了1670万美元的梅拉尼亚代币。宣布这一消息后，代币的价格从大约2.00美元上涨至12.95美元，在550％的增长之后，交易者的价格为550％，而交易者则在12小时内出售了12小时内的持有量。

The FT identified 24 wallets that accumulated the bulk of the pre-launch tokens, with another 22 wallets buying around $900,000 worth of tokens in the 42 seconds following the announcement. The suspicious timing raised concerns of insider trading or advance knowledge of the launch.

英尺省确定了24个钱包，这些钱包累积了大部分发布前代币，另外22个钱包在宣布后的42秒内购买了价值约90万美元的令牌。可疑的时机引起了内幕交易或提前对发布知识的关注。

The memecoin’s debut came just two days after Donald Trump unveiled his own TRUMP token, which has also come under scrutiny from U.S. lawmakers. Some politicians expressed concerns over potential corruption, conflicts of interest, and even foreign influence.

唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）宣布自己的特朗普代币（Trump Soken）仅两天后，这位成员的首次亮相是在美国立法者的审查之后的两天。一些政客对潜在的腐败，利益冲突甚至外国影响表示担忧。

The criticism intensified after it was revealed that top TRUMP token holders would be invited to a private dinner and tour with the former president, prompting at least one senator to call for impeachment proceedings.

批评加剧了据透露，特朗普最高的持有人将被邀请参加私人晚餐并与前总统一起巡回演出，促使至少一名参议员呼吁弹impeach诉讼。

Despite their explosive launches, both tokens have since seen steep declines. At the time of writing, MELANIA is trading at around $0.31, and TRUMP has dropped to $10.90. The TRUMP token did see a brief price increase after the dinner announcement in April but quickly fell again.

尽管发射了爆炸性，但两个令牌自此都急剧下降。在撰写本文时，梅拉尼亚（Melania）的交易价格约为0.31美元，特朗普（Trump）下跌至10.90美元。四月份的晚餐宣布后，特朗普的代币确实看到了短暂的价格，但很快再次下降。

Adding to the controversy, two companies connected to Donald Trump reportedly control about 80% of the TRUMP token supply, although a large portion of those holdings are locked and set to vest over the next three years.

据报道，还有两家与唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）联系的公司与唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）有关的两家公司控制着大约80％的特朗普代币供应，尽管这些持股中的很大一部分被锁定并在未来三年内将归属。

Critics have warned that the structure leaves room for insiders to potentially pull the rug on retail investors, especially as political and regulatory scrutiny over crypto and campaign fundraising is heating up.

批评者警告说，该结构为内部人员留出了可能吸引零售投资者地毯的空间，尤其是在政治和监管对加密货币和竞选筹款活动的审查正在加热的时候。

For his part, Trump gave mixed messages on whether he has financially benefited from his own cryptocurrency project during a Meet the Press interview that was filmed on March 31 and broadcast on May 4.

就特朗普而言，特朗普在3月31日拍摄并于5月4日播出的新闻发布会上发表了有关他自己是否从财务中受益的信息。

When pressed by NBC’s Kristen Welker about profiting from the "Official Trump" (TRUMP) memecoin launched in January, Trump replied, "I haven't even looked," and insisted, "I'm not profiting from anything."

当NBC的克里斯汀·韦尔克（Kristen Welker）向“特朗普官方”（特朗普）Memecoin在一月份发射的敦促时，特朗普回答说：“我什至没有看，并坚持说：“我没有从任何东西中获利。”

However, he added, "If I own stock in something and I do a good job, and the stock market goes up, I guess I'm profiting."

但是，他补充说：“如果我拥有某事，并且做得很好，股市上升，我想我正在获利。”
