Tether是被称为“100先生”的神秘比特币鲸鱼吗？

加密货币鲸鱼以有能力推动市场并推动小型加密货币持有者的参与而闻名

Cryptocurrency whales play a pivotal role in shaping the market and driving engagement among smaller crypto holders, but no other whale has ever garnered as much attention as "Mr. 100," the Bitcoin whale known for snapping up at least 100 BTC per purchase. Now, speculations are swirling that Mr. 100 might actually be Tether.

加密货币鲸鱼在塑造市场和推动小型加密货币持有者参与方面发挥着关键作用，但没有其他鲸鱼能像“100 先生”那样获得如此多的关注，这只比特币鲸鱼以每次购买至少 100 BTC 而闻名。现在，人们纷纷猜测 Mr. 100 可能实际上是 Tether。

On Wednesday, Tether, the company behind the Tether ($USDT) stablecoin, disclosed its financial results for the second quarter of 2024, revealing that it generated "a record net profit of $5.2 billion for the first half of the year."

周三，Tether（USDT）稳定币背后的公司 Tether 披露了 2024 年第二季度的财务业绩，透露其“上半年净利润达到创纪录的 52 亿美元”。

It also unveiled that it holds an astonishing $4.7 billion worth of Bitcoin, surpassing its precious metals holdings valued at $3.8 billion and "other investments" amounting to $3.5 billion.

该公司还透露，其持有价值 47 亿美元的比特币，超过其价值 38 亿美元的贵金属持有量和价值 35 亿美元的“其他投资”。

$USDT and Tether were trending on X Thursday as speculations emerged about the stablecoin leader being Mr. 100, a mysterious $BTC whale that has steadily amassed a significant stash of some 67,000 Bitcoins.

周四，美元 USDT 和 Tether 的走势出现了关于稳定币领导者是 Mr. 100 的猜测，Mr. 100 是一只神秘的 BTC 巨鲸，稳步积累了约 67,000 枚比特币。

One crypto user on X posted side-by-sid photos of Tether's asset holdings report and Mr. 100's BTC holdings as of Monday, which also amounted to $4.7 billion. "Is Tether Mr. 100? Bitcoin balance seems suspiciously close," @3xWolverine wrote.

X 上的一位加密用户并排发布了 Tether 的资产持有报告和 Mr. 100 截至周一持有的 BTC 的照片，其持有量也达到 47 亿美元。 “Tether 是 100 先生吗？比特币余额似乎非常接近，”@3xWolverine 写道。

After @3xWolverine posted the photos, several other crypto users reposted the images. "There is no other institution that knows of market makers like Tether. And Mr. 100 just started buying Bitcoin again, half an hour ago," one user pointed out.

在@3xWolverine 发布照片后，其他几位加密货币用户转发了这些图像。 “没有其他机构知道像 Tether 这样的做市商。而 100 先生半小时前刚刚开始再次购买比特币，”一位用户指出。

Several crypto users said Tether can't possibly be Mr. 100 as the stablecoin titan has a different wallet address. Bitcoiner Mark Harvey argued against the speculation, saying Tether's Bitcoin holdings "remained the same since last quarter." Mr. 100 has been making regular $BTC purchases in the last few months.

一些加密货币用户表示，Tether 不可能是 Mr. 100，因为稳定币巨头有不同的钱包地址。比特币爱好者马克·哈维 (Mark Harvey) 反对这一猜测，称 Tether 持有的比特币“自上季度以来一直保持不变”。过去几个月，Mr. 100 一直在定期购买 BTC 美元。

I have tether's addresses, they are not mr.100

我有 tether 的地址，他们不是 100 先生

Tether address is different

系绳地址不同

Others were convinced Tether is Mr. 100, with one user saying Mr. 100 has to be "someone too strong to hold that amount alone." Leading blockchain analytics firm Arkham Intelligence took to X Thursday, saying "we told you guys half a year ago: 'Mr. 100 is an Upbit cold wallet." Well-followed @Jamyies was among the crypto users who backed the theory.

其他人则相信 Tether 就是 100 先生，一位用户表示 100 先生必须​​是“一个太强大的人，无法独自持有这个金额”。领先的区块链分析公司 Arkham Intelligence 周四接受 X 采访时表示，“半年前我们就告诉过你们：‘100 先生是一个 Upbit 冷钱包。’”备受关注的 @Jamyies 是支持该理论的加密货币用户之一。

Tether has yet to deny or confirm its supposed connection to Mr. 100's digital wallet.

Tether 尚未否认或确认其与 Mr. 100 数字钱包的联系。

For several years, other crypto users have been closely following Mr. 100's activity closely due to his interesting buying pattern. He has been consistently purchasing around 100 BTC on a near-daily basis since Feb. 14 but took a 34-day hiatus from May through June. Mr. 100's digital wallet picked up the buying spree late in June, when BTC dipped below $59,000.

多年来，由于 100 先生有趣的购买模式，其他加密货币用户一直密切关注他的活动。自 2 月 14 日以来，他几乎每天都会购买约 100 个比特币，但从 5 月到 6 月，他中断了 34 天。 Mr. 100 的数字钱包在 6 月底掀起了购买热潮，当时 BTC 跌破 59,000 美元。

There have been various suggestions about who Mr. 100 is over the years, but some have said the wallet could be owned by a tech billionaire that has yet to be identified by on-chain intelligence analysts, and possibly, not a single investor but an asset manager behind a spot $BTC exchange-traded fund (ETF).

多年来，关于 100 先生是谁有各种各样的说法，但有些人表示，该钱包可能由一位科技亿万富翁所有，但链上情报分析师尚未确认该富翁的身份，而且可能不是单一投资者，而是一个现货 BTC 交易所交易基金 (ETF) 背后的资产经理。
