一小群加密货币交易者赚了近1亿美元

一小群加密货币交易者通过在公开前购买梅拉尼亚·特朗普的成员赚了近1亿美元。

A small group of crypto traders made nearly $100 million by buying Melania Trump’s memecoin minutes ahead of it going public, new research has shown.

新的研究表明，一小群加密货币交易员通过在公开时间之前购买了梅拉尼亚·特朗普（Melania Trump）的成员分钟，赚了近1亿美元。

The first lady’s $MELANIA coin was unveiled on January 19, the day before her husband was sworn in as president. It followed a similar move by Trump himself, who launched his own $TRUMP coin several days prior.

第一夫人的$ Melania硬币于1月19日宣布，即她的丈夫宣誓就职的前一天。此后，特朗普本人采取了类似的举动，他在几天前推出了自己的$特朗普硬币。

But analysis by the Financial Times shows that in the two and a half minutes between the currency going live and Melania officially announcing it to the public on Truth Social, two dozen digital wallets purchased tokens worth $2.6 million.

但是，《金融时报》的分析表明，在货币现场直播和梅拉尼亚之间正式向公众宣布真相社交之间的两分钟半钟之间，有两十个数字钱包购买了价值260万美元的代币。

Following Melania’s announcement the price of the coins surged rapidly by over 5000 percent and most of the wallets that had purchased the cryptocurrency immediately sold off their holdings, with around 81 percent of traders selling the coin within 12 hours for massive profit.

梅拉尼亚（Melania）宣布，硬币的价格迅速飙升了5000％以上，购买加密货币的大多数钱包立即出售了其股份，大约81％的交易者在12小时内出售硬币以赚取大量利润。

One of the wallets bought $681,000 of $MELANIA 64 seconds before the announcement was made public. In the 24 hours that followed, the same account sold the majority of its stock for $39 million when the surge was at its highest, before dumping the rest and making an additional $4.4 million over the next three days.

在宣布公告之前，其中一个钱包以64秒的价格购买了681,000美元的$ 681,000美元。在随后的24小时内，同一帐户在激增的最高点时以3,900万美元的价格出售了其大部分股票，然后在接下来的三天内倾倒其余的440万美元。

The method is a stark contrast to the launch of $TRUMP, which had no pre-announcement sales and logged its first purchase 42 seconds after the president posted about it on Truth Social.

该方法与$特朗普的推出形成鲜明对比，后者没有宣布前的销售，并在总统发布有关真相社会的关于它的第42秒后记录了其首次购买。

$MELANIA meanwhile saw an additional $900,000 of tokens purchased in the 42 seconds after it was announced, suggesting a degree of insider knowledge from the biggest buyers.

同时，梅拉尼亚（Melania）在宣布后的42秒内购买了额外的90万美元代币，这表明最大的买家有一定程度的内部知识。

The first account to purchase $MELANIA bought coins worth $40,000 141 seconds before the launch. It then went on to sell 86 percent of its holdings within 2 hours, making $2.5 million profit.

首个购买$ Melania的帐户在发布前购买了价值$ 40,000 141秒的硬币。然后，它继续在2小时内卖出86％的持股，从而获得250万美元的利润。

Although most of the wallets involved in the pre-announcement purchases remain anonymous, the FT has identified the above buyer of them as belonging to Hayden Davis, a 28-year-old crypto entrepreneur from Texas who said he was involved in the launch of $MELANIA.

尽管涉及公告前购买的大多数钱包仍然是匿名的，但FT已将上述买家确定为属于德克萨斯州的28岁的加密企业家海登·戴维斯（Hayden Davis），他说他参与了$ Melania的推出。

Davis, who was integral in launching another memecoin, $LIBRA, found himself at the center of a political scandal in February after the currency was briefly endorsed by Argentina’s President Javier Milei, which resulted in a similar price surge followed by a crash.

戴维斯（Davis）在推出另一个纪念物$ libra方面是不可或缺的，在阿根廷总统的总统贾维尔·米利（Javier Milei）短暂地认可货币之后，二月发现自己处于政治丑闻的中心，这导致了类似的价格上涨，随后发生了坠机。

During an interview with independent crypto journalist Coffeezilla, Davis confirmed he was part of the $MELANIA team and said they “wanted to snipe it, because of how big the snipe was on $TRUMP,” but added that nobody involved with the launch was “the big sniper.”

戴维斯在接受独立加密新闻记者咖啡赛的采访时，确认他是梅拉尼亚团队的成员，并说他们“想狙击它，因为狙击手在$ trump上有多大，”但补充说，没有人参与发布是“大狙击手”。

“There was no money made from the Melania team. We didn’t take any liquidity out. Zero,” Davis stated.

戴维斯说：“梅拉尼亚队没有钱。我们没有带来任何流动性。零。”

Crypto exchange platform Arkham Intelligence also revealed that one of the wallets connected to the $MELONIA pre-purchase was once used by Barron Trump. While there is no evidence he was involved in purchasing his mother’s cryptocoin, the president’s youngest son is a key member of the Trump family’s crypto exchange, the World Liberty Foundation, and is rumored to have created his own Trump-themed digital token with the assistance of “pharma-bro” and convicted felon Martin Shkreli.

加密交流平台Arkham Intelligence还透露，与Melonia预售相关的一件钱包曾经被Barron Trump使用。尽管没有证据表明他参与购买母亲的加密蛋白，但总统的小儿子是特朗普家族的加密货币交易所，世界自由基金会的关键成员，有传言称，在“ Pharma-Bro”的帮助下创建了自己以特朗普为主题的数字代码，并定罪了Felon Martin Shkreli。

Describing his son as a ”blockchain wizard,” Trump said: "Barron knows so much about this. Barron's a young guy, but he knows—he talks about his [crypto] wallet, he's got four wallets or something, and I'll say 'what is a wallet?' But he knows it inside out," according to the Independent.

特朗普将他的儿子描述为“区块链向导”，“巴伦对此非常了解。巴伦是个年轻人，但他知道 - 他谈论他的[加密货币]钱包，他有四个钱包或其他东西，我会说'什么是钱包？''但是他知道这一点，”独立人士说。

In total, traders who profited off the launch of $TRUMP have earned at least $350 million in token sales and transaction fees, after the price of Trump’s coin once again surged when he announced that largest holders would be eligible to have dinner with the president.

总的来说，在特朗普的代币价格再次飙升之后，他宣布最大的持有人有资格与总统共进晚餐后，总共获得了$特朗普的贸易商的销售和交易费用至少为3.5亿美元。

There are around 800 million remaining $MELANIA coins which were not listed for public sale. According to analysis by the FT, "the entities which launched the coin—which are separate to the wallets that traded in it prior to the official announcement—have so far withdrawn profits of $64.7mn from fees and primary sales."

大约有8亿美元的Melania硬币未列出进行公开销售。根据英国银行的分析，“发射硬币的实体与在正式公告之前交易的钱包分开了，因此从费用和主要销售中撤回了6470万美元的利润。”
