This arrangement has drawn criticism as it could create a loophole in political influence rules.

Among them, Chinese-born crypto entrepreneur Justin Sun claims the top investor position, having pledged $20 million to the memecoin as part of his $93 million total investment in Trump-linked crypto ventures.

其中，出生于中国的加密企业家贾斯汀·孙（Justin Sun）声称是最高投资者的职位，作为他9300万美元在特朗普与特朗普的加密货币投资的总投资的一部分，保证了2000万美元。

Sun, founder of top 10 cryptocurrency TRON, was being probed by US authorities for market manipulation, but regulators, now appointed by Trump, agreed in February to a 60-day pause to seek a settlement.

美国当局对市场操纵进行了调查，Sun是十大加密货币Tron的创始人，但现在由特朗普任命的监管机构于2月份同意了60天的停顿，以寻求解决方案。

According to the website Popular Information, a few weeks before that decision, Sun purchased $30 million in digital assets from a venture backed by Trump and his family.

根据该网站的流行信息，在决定前几周，Sun从特朗普及其家人的支持下购买了3000万美元的数字资产。

"Honored to support @POTUS and grateful for the invitation to attend President Trump's Gala Dinner as his TOP fan!" Sun wrote Tuesday on X, saying he looked forward to "discussing the future of our industry."

Some Republicans have expressed concerns about the dinner, but most criticism has come from Democrats.

一些共和党人对晚餐表示关注，但大多数批评来自民主党人。

Senator Chris Murphy on Wednesday slammed the exclusive dinner as an opportunity for the world's wealthy including "foreign oligarchs" to get a "secret meeting"" with the US president as they seek favors and influence.

参议员克里斯·墨菲（Chris Murphy）周三抨击了独家晚宴，这是世界富人的一个机会，包括“外国寡头”，在美国总统寻求帮助和影响力时与“秘密会议”。

"It's fundamentally corrupt -- a way to buy access to the President," Murphy stated on X.

墨菲在X上说：“这是从根本上腐败的 - 一种与总统购买的方式。”

The White House retaliated against those who have made insinuations of impropriety.

"I think it's frankly ridiculous that anyone in this room would even suggest that President Trump is doing anything for his own benefit," Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said last week.

新闻秘书卡罗琳·莱维特（Karoline Leavitt）上周说：“我认为坦率地说，这个房间里的任何人甚至都建议特朗普总统为自己的利益做任何事情。”

"He left a life of luxury and a life of running a very successful real estate empire for public service."

“他留下了奢侈的生活，并拥有一个非常成功的公共服务房地产帝国的生活。”

The dinner comes as the Senate is pushing through legislation to more clearly regulate cryptocurrencies, a long-sought request of the industry.

晚餐是随着参议院的推动立法的推动，以更清楚地规范加密货币，这是该行业的长期要求。

Senators on Monday advanced a landmark bill known as the GENIUS Act that proposes a regulatory framework for stablecoins -- a type of crypto token seen as more predictable for investors as its value is pegged to hard currencies like the dollar.

参议员周一提出了一项具有里程碑意义的法案，称为《天才法案》，该法案提出了一个针对稳定币的监管框架 - 一种加密代币对投资者来说更可预测，因为其价值与美元货币（如Dollar）挂钩。

That legislation had faced roadblocks in part because of Trump's dabbling in cryptocurrencies -- a rising sector he once dismissed as a scam.

这项立法遭到了障碍，部分原因是特朗普在加密货币中涉足 - 他曾经被视为骗局的崛起部门。

His stance reversed during the 2024 presidential campaign when crypto tycoons, frustrated by perceived unfair treatment under the Biden administration, became major contributors to his campaign.

他的立场在2024年的总统大选中扭转了，当时加密大亨因拜登政府的不公平待遇而感到沮丧，成为了他的竞选活动的主要贡献者。

The cryptocurrency industry struggled with significant scandals during Biden's presidency, most notably the collapse of the FTX crypto exchange and the 25-year fraud sentence for founder Sam Bankman-Fried.

在拜登（Biden）担任总统期间，加密货币行业在重大丑闻中挣扎，最著名的是FTX加密交易所的崩溃，以及创始人山姆·班克曼（Sam Bankman）的25年欺诈判决。
