特朗普为$特朗普硬币投资者举办晚会，对加密影响力和总统毕业作品发出警报

美国总统唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）周四晚上在他的弗吉尼亚高尔夫俱乐部举办了一个奢侈的晚会，为他的个人加密货币，$特朗普硬币（Trump Coin），这是一种迅速成为特朗普家族及其商业合作伙伴的财务寿命。

US President Donald Trump hosted an extravagant gala Thursday evening at his Virginia golf club for top investors in his namesake cryptocurrency, $TRUMP coin. The event, described by critics as unprecedented in its brazenness, drew hundreds of guests, many from overseas, who gained access by purchasing large amounts of the memecoin.

美国总统唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）周四晚上在他的弗吉尼亚高尔夫俱乐部（Virginia Golf Club）举办了一个奢侈的晚会，为他的同名加密货币（$ trump Coin）举办了顶级投资者。批评家将其描述为前所未有的狂热，吸引了数百名客人，其中许多来自海外的客人，他们通过购买大量的成员获得了访问权限。

Trump’s presidency has largely been defined by its close ties to the Trump family business. Though he promised to ‘drain the swamp’ of Washington D.C., Trump has instead invited guests to a cryptocurrency fundraiser cloaked in political access.

特朗普的总统任期在很大程度上是通过与特朗普家族企业的密切联系来定义的。尽管他答应“排干华盛顿特区的沼泽”，但特朗普却邀请客人参加一场加密货币筹款活动，以政治上的范围掩盖。

The gala at Trump National Golf Club offered access based on investment levels in the $TRUMP coin, with the top 220 holders attending dinner and the top 25 offered a private meeting with the president.

特朗普国家高尔夫俱乐部的晚会根据$特朗普硬币的投资水平提供了访问权限，前220名持有人参加晚宴，前25名与总统举行了私人会议。

Launched just days before Trump’s second inauguration, the coin has already generated over $320 million in transaction fees, a portion of which flows to the Trump family via their corporate entity CIC Digital.

该硬币就在特朗普第二次就职典礼的前几天就已经产生了超过3.2亿美元的交易费用，其中一部分通过其公司实体CIC Digital流向了特朗普家族。

While framed by organizers as a celebration of cryptocurrency, the event served as a highly publicized opportunity for investors—some with direct business interests in US financial policy—to influence Trump’s future crypto agenda.

虽然组织者构建了对加密货币的庆祝活动，但该活动为投资者提供了高度宣传的机会（有些具有美国财务政策的直接商业利益），以影响特朗普的未来加密议程。

Guests included crypto titans like Justin Sun, a Chinese billionaire known for his failed attempt to buy the U.S. bank, and executives from Korea, Taiwan, and the United Arab Emirates. Several expressed hopes of shaping regulatory changes that could favour their firms' early entry into the American market.

嘉宾包括贾斯汀·孙（Justin Sun）等加密泰坦（Crypto Titans），他是一位因购买美国银行的失败而闻名的中国亿万富翁，以及韩国，台湾和阿拉伯联合酋长国的高管。几种表达了塑造监管变化的希望，这些变化可能有利于其公司的早期进入美国市场。

Outside the club, protesters waved signs reading “Stop Crypto Corruption” and “USA Is Not For Sale,” accusing Trump of blurring the lines between governance and self-enrichment. Senator Jeff Merkley, a Democrat from Oregon, denounced the event as “the crypto corruption club,” and warned it marked a new level of influence-peddling around the presidency.

在俱乐部外，抗议者挥舞着标志着阅读“停止加密腐败”和“美国不出售”，指责特朗普模糊了治理和自我补充之间的界限。来自俄勒冈州的民主党人杰夫·默克利（Jeff Merkley）谴责这一事件为“加密腐败俱乐部”，并警告它标志着总统职位的新影响力。

Inside, Trump touted his support for the crypto industry and promised to reverse Biden-era regulations that he claimed had “made your lives miserable.” In a video captured at the event, Trump said, “There’s a lot of common sense in crypto. We’re honored to be working on helping everybody here.”

在内部，特朗普吹捧他对加密货币产业的支持，并承诺扭转拜登时代的法规，他声称“使您的生活痛苦不堪”。在活动中捕获的视频中，特朗普说：“加密货币有很多常识。我们很荣幸能够帮助这里的每个人。”

The Trump administration denied that the event represented an ethical breach. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt dismissed concerns, saying: “It’s absurd for anyone to insinuate that this president is profiting off of the presidency.”

特朗普政府否认该事件代表了道德违规。白宫新闻秘书卡罗琳·莱维特（Karoline Leavitt）驳回了担忧，他说：“任何人都暗示这位总统正在从总统任职中获利是荒谬的。”

This gala is part of a broader trend in Trump’s second term. In recent months, his family has closed real estate deals with foreign governments, partnered with crypto entities to raise billions, and held sponsored events at Trump-owned properties.

这个晚会是特朗普第二任期的更广泛趋势的一部分。近几个月来，他的家人与外国政府结束了房地产交易，与加密货币实体合作以筹集数十亿美元，并在特朗普拥有的财产中举行了赞助活动。

Critics argue these deals show a disregard for long-held norms that presidents avoid direct profit while in office. Even Trump’s sons have begun to publicly reject the idea that they should place any limits on business dealings while serving in or around government.

批评者认为，这些交易表明无视长期以来的规范，总统在任职期间避免了直接利润。甚至特朗普的儿子也开始公开拒绝这样的想法，即他们在政府中或周围的商业往来都应对业务往来施加任何限制。

“We’re going to play the game,” Donald Trump Jr. said during a recent appearance in Qatar.

Though the Trump Organization claims it is not involved in the memecoin dinner, it owns the venue and profits from every $TRUMP coin transaction. The event was organized by Fight, Fight, Fight—a company tied to Trump’s longtime partner Bill Zanker—and originally promised guests a White House tour, a reference later scrubbed from the website.

尽管特朗普组织声称它没有参与Memecoin晚宴，但它拥有每笔特朗普硬币交易的场地和利润。该活动是通过战斗，战斗，战斗组织的，这是一家与特朗普的长期合作伙伴比尔·扎克（Bill Zanker）联系在一起的公司，并最初向客人保证了白宫巡回演出，后来参考了该网站。

Legal and ethical experts warn that the mingling of foreign investment, crypto policy, and presidential access raises troubling questions under campaign finance laws and anti-corruption standards. Whether any formal investigation follows remains to be seen.

法律和道德专家警告说，外国投资，加密政策和总统访问的融合会在竞选财务法和反腐败标准下提出令人困扰的问题。是否有任何正式调查还有待观察。
