特朗普媒体和技术集团（TMTG）计划筹集$ 3B购买加密货币

这一筹款举动表明，由特朗普家族控制的公司更深入地推动了数字资产，这些公司与现任美国总统政府密切相关。

Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG), the company behind Truth Social, is planning to raise $3 billion to buy cryptocurrencies, sources told Reuters.

消息人士告诉路透社，Trump Media＆Technology Group（TMTG）计划筹集30亿美元购买加密货币。

The move by the Trump family firm signals a deeper push into digital assets. It comes amid reports of Trump’s close ties to the U.S. presidential administration and his family members’ involvement in crypto ventures.

特朗普家族公司的举动向数字资产提出了更深入的推动。这是关于特朗普与美国总统政府及其家人参与Crypto Ventures的密切联系的报道。

TMTG plans to raise $2 billion through new equity and another $1 billion via a convertible bond, according to six individuals familiar with the matter. The announcement could be made as early as this week at a major crypto event in Las Vegas, three sources said.

据六个熟悉此事的人说，TMTG计划通过新的股票通过新的股票筹集20亿美元，再通过可转换债券筹集10亿美元。三名消息人士称，该消息可能早在本周在拉斯维加斯举行的一次重大加密赛事中发表。

Donald Trump Jr, Eric Trump, Vice-President JD Vance, and Trump’s crypto advisor David Sachs are expected to attend the conference.

唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump Jr），埃里克·特朗普（Eric Trump），副总裁JD Vance和特朗普的加密顾问戴维·萨克斯（David Sachs）有望参加会议。

The company’s strategy closely resembles that of MicroStrategy, which has become a major corporate Bitcoin holder through equity and debt offerings to invest in digital assets.

该公司的战略与MicroStrategy的战略非常相似，该战略已通过股权和债务投资以投资数字资产而成为主要公司比特币持有人。

TMTG’s stock closed last Friday at $25.72, giving it a market capitalization close to $6 billion. The capital raise is expected to occur on “at-the-market” terms, meaning shares will be sold at or near their current trading price.

TMTG的股票上周五收盘价为25.72美元，使其市值接近60亿美元。预计将以“在市场”条款上进行资本加薪，这意味着股票将以当前的交易价格出售。

The move follows recent activity from Trump-linked businesses that support digital assets, including memecoins, NFT trading cards, crypto mining, and now a new exchange-traded fund (ETF) focused on cryptocurrency.

此举是在与特朗普有联系的企业的最新活动之后，这些企业支持数字资产，包括Memecoins，NFT交易卡，加密货币采矿以及现在专注于加密货币的新型交易所交易基金（ETF）。

Last week, Donald Trump hosted a private event at his Washington-area resort for investors in his TRUMP-themed memecoin.

上周，唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）在其特朗普主题的纪念品中为投资者举办了一场私人活动。

TMTG is also working with Crypto.com to launch its crypto ETF, with the exchange assisting in managing digital assets and related securities within the fund. Two firms, ClearStreet and BTIG, are expected to help underwrite the upcoming capital raise, two sources said.

TMTG还与Crypto.com合作启动其加密ETF，交易所有助于管理基金内的数字资产和相关证券。两位消息人士称，两家公司有望帮助承销即将到来的资本筹集。

A similar deal was recently announced by a blank cheque company led by Brandon Lutnick. That $3.6 billion venture aims to build a Bitcoin buying entity in collaboration with Tether and SoftBank.

布兰登·卢特尼克（Brandon Lutnick）领导的一家空白支票公司最近宣布了类似的交易。这笔36亿美元的冒险旨在与Tether和Softbank合作建立一个比特币购买实体。

Fundraising efforts have sparked fresh concerns about ethics and legality. Some critics argue that close financial involvement in cryptocurrency could present conflicts of interest, given Trump’s position as U.S. president.

筹款活动引发了人们对道德和合法性的新担忧。一些批评家认为，考虑到特朗普作为美国总统的地位，对加密货币的密切财务参与可能会带来利益冲突。

One recent event saw Trump reportedly wearing the presidential seal during a private crypto dinner. The White House said it was a personal event, but wearing the seal at a non-official event could breach federal law, which carries a penalty of up to six months in jail.

据报道，最近的一项事件使特朗普在私人加密晚宴上戴着总统印章。白宫说这是一个个人活动，但是在非官方活动中戴印章可能会违反联邦法律，该法律最高可判处六个月的监禁。

Congresswoman Maxine Waters has also introduced a new bill titled the “Stop TRUMP in Crypto Act.” The proposed legislation aims to bar U.S. officials, including the president, from trading or promoting cryptocurrencies while in office.

国会女议员麦克西恩·沃特斯（Maxine Waters）还提出了一项名为“停止特朗普在加密法案”的新法案。拟议的立法旨在禁止包括总统在内的美国官员在任职期间进行交易或促进加密货币。
