美国商务部长霍华德·卢特尼克（Howard Lutnick）概述了他对美国的比特币愿景

2025年4月23日，星期三，我与美国商务部长霍华德·卢特尼克（Howard Lutnick）坐下来讨论他对美国的比特币愿景。

On Wednesday, April 23, 2025, I had the pleasure of sitting down with U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick to discuss his Bitcoin vision for America.

在2025年4月23日，星期三，我很高兴与美国商务部长霍华德·卢特尼克（Howard Lutnick）坐下来讨论他对美国的比特币愿景。

We discussed the U.S. Department of Commerce’s new investment accelerator that will benefit Bitcoin mining companies; why he views bitcoin as a commodity, like gold; and why it’s only natural that the Bitcoin industry finds a home in the United States.

我们讨论了美国商务部的新投资加速器，该加速器将使比特币矿业公司受益；为什么他将比特币视为商品，例如黄金？以及为什么比特币行业在美国找到家是很自然的。

On March 31, 2025, the Commerce Department launched an investment accelerator. The aim of the accelerator is to help firms that want to invest in America get new projects off the ground. It assists by making clear to companies what regulations they must understand, and it helps them to obtain the necessary permits.

2025年3月31日，商务部推出了一家投资加速器。加速器的目的是帮助想要投资于美国的公司将新项目置于地面上。它通过向公司澄清他们必须理解的法规来协助，并帮助他们获得必要的许可证。

Secretary Lutnick envisions the investment accelerator being beneficial to Bitcoin mining companies.

卢特尼克（Lutnick）秘书设想投资加速器对比特币采矿公司有益。

“We’re going to make it so that if you want to mine Bitcoin and you find the right place to do it, you can build your own power plant next to it. You don’t necessarily need to be on the grid, and you are going to see this happen: miners are going to put their data centers on top of gas fields, and then put a plant right next to them so that they won’t be able to draw power [from the existing grid]. You’ll see the next generation of miners in America will be able to control their destiny and control the cost of power, [which], I think, is going to turbocharge Bitcoin mining in America.”

“我们要做到这一点，以便您要挖掘比特币并找到合适的地方，您可以在旁边建造自己的动力厂。您不一定需要在网格上。命运并控制权力成本，我认为这将在美国进行涡轮增压比特币采矿。”

Toward the middle of the interview, Lutnick expressed that he views bitcoin as a commodity and not as a currency.

面试中间，卢特尼克（Lutnick）表示，他将比特币视为商品，而不是货币。

“Bitcoin is a commodity, and it should be treated like a commodity. It should be treated like oil. It should be treated like gold. It’s not a currency.”

“比特币是一种商品，应该像商品一样将其视为商品。应该像石油一样对待。应该像黄金一样对待。这不是一种货币。”

Secretary Lutnick stated that in treating bitcoin as a commodity, he might consider having the Bureau of Economic Affairs (BEA) employ bitcoin in its calculations the same way it employs gold.

卢特尼克（Lutnick）秘书说，在将比特币视为商品时，他可能会考虑让经济事务局（BEA）在计算中采用比特币，就像使用黄金一样。

Currently, the BEA uses gold to refine and calculate its National Economic Accounts, which includes GDP. The bureau also accounts for gold in trade statistics, recording gold exports and imports as part of its International Transactions Accounts (ITAs).

目前，BEA使用黄金来完善和计算其国家经济帐户，其中包括GDP。该局还考虑了贸易统计数据的黄金，作为其国际交易帐户（ITA）的一部分，记录黄金出口和进口。

Secretary Lutnick stressed that the Bitcoin industry is welcome in the United States. He noted that the current administration has true Bitcoin believers in it, like himself and White House AI and Crypto Czar David Sacks, and that he wants to see Bitcoin thrive in America.

卢特尼克（Lutnick）秘书强调，在美国欢迎比特币行业。他指出，现任政府在其中拥有真正的比特币信徒，就像他自己，白宫AI和Crypto Czar David Sacks，他想看到比特币在美国蓬勃发展。

“America is the most extraordinary business place on Earth. The goal is for the industry to figure out how to win in America because the Trump administration plans to help the industry achieve the highest degree of success here, which is the polar opposite approach of the previous administration. It was treated under the Biden administration like you were doing something wrong. Now you have that in the rear view mirror, and it’ll never come back. And when I say never, I meant never as far as the Trump administration is concerned. I meant that the United States is a Bitcoin country from here on out. You’ve never seen the United States of America embrace something and then turn their back on it later. That’s never happened.”

“美国是地球上最非凡的商业场所。目标是要弄清楚如何在美国获胜，因为特朗普政府计划帮助行业在这里取得最高的成功，这是上一个政府的极性相反的方法。在拜登政府的情况下，它像你那样做错了，就像你在做错了什么。从这里开始，比特币国家从未见过美利坚合众国，然后再对其进行介绍。”
