由于恶性通货膨胀和制裁的影响，委内瑞拉人转向加密货币

随着委内瑞拉面临严重的恶性通货膨胀，委内瑞拉玻利瓦尔的价值急剧下降，国外的人们纷纷转向加密货币来发送

As Venezuela continues to grapple with severe hyperinflation and a rapidly depreciating bolívar, those living outside the country have increasingly resorted to cryptocurrencies to send funds to their families back home. This trend has seen a steady rise in recent years, with a brief dip in 2018.

随着委内瑞拉继续应对严重的恶性通货膨胀和玻利瓦尔的迅速贬值，居住在国外的人们越来越多地诉诸加密货币向家乡的家人汇款。这一趋势近年来稳步上升，但在 2018 年略有下降。

Traditionally, such remittances would be processed through financial services companies specializing in cross-border payments. However, steep fees, lengthy waiting times, and issues with currency supply often render these services inconvenient for most people. As a result, cryptocurrencies have emerged as a preferred alternative for sending funds to family members in Venezuela.

传统上，此类汇款将通过专门从事跨境支付的金融服务公司进行处理。然而，高昂的费用、漫长的等待时间以及货币供应问题往往给大多数人带来这些服务的不便。因此，加密货币已成为向委内瑞拉家庭成员汇款的首选替代方案。

The country's standing on the world stage has deteriorated significantly over the years due to its autocratic government, corruption, and unfavorable policies, which have led to a slew of international sanctions being imposed on Venezuela. Despite boasting the largest oil reserves globally, the country continues to face economic災難s, with its currency experiencing drastic devaluation as a result of hyperinflationary pressures.

多年来，由于其独裁政府、腐败和不利政策，该国在世界舞台上的地位大幅恶化，导致国际社会对委内瑞拉实施一系列制裁。尽管拥有全球最大的石油储备，该国仍然面临经济灾难，恶性通货膨胀压力导致其货币大幅贬值。

In an attempt to circumvent these sanctions and facilitate easier transacting and trading, especially given its vast oil reserves, the Venezuelan government introduced its cryptocurrency. However, a lack of adoption—even by its own Central Bank—and other factors led to the government discontinuing its development and maintenance by 2024.

为了规避这些制裁并促进更容易的交易，特别是考虑到其巨大的石油储量，委内瑞拉政府推出了加密货币。然而，由于缺乏采用（即使是其自己的中央银行）以及其他因素，导致政府在 2024 年之前停止了其开发和维护。

Other measures have also been taken by Venezuela, such as turning to stablecoins for trade-related purposes. However, such efforts are also being met with resistance, with Tether, the largest stablecoin issuer, cutting off support to Venezuela this year. This decision was made as the issuer complies with U.S.-related sanctions on the country due to its government.

委内瑞拉还采取了其他措施，例如转向稳定币用于贸易相关目的。然而，此类努力也遇到了阻力，最大的稳定币发行商 Tether 今年切断了对委内瑞拉的支持。这一决定是由于发行人遵守美国政府对该国实施的相关制裁而做出的。

“Venezuela's state-run oil company PDVSA plans to increase digital currency usage in its crude and fuel exports as the U.S. reimposes oil sanctions on the country,” according to a Reuters article from April.

据路透社 4 月份的一篇文章称，“随着美国重新对该国实施石油制裁，委内瑞拉国营石油公司 PDVSA 计划增加其原油和燃料出口中的数字货币使用。”

Despite these efforts, peer-to-peer transactions, which Venezuelan citizens use to receive funds and transact locally for products and services, cannot be stopped. While the government's embrace of cryptocurrencies may not sit well with the masses, the citizens' use of this asset class enjoys strong support, as crypto empowers individuals to access finance despite the conditions created by their authoritarian government.

尽管做出了这些努力，委内瑞拉公民用来接收资金并在当地进行产品和服务交易的点对点交易仍无法停止。尽管政府对加密货币的接受可能不会受到大众的欢迎，但公民对这一资产类别的使用得到了强有力的支持，因为加密货币使个人能够获得融资，尽管其独裁政府创造了条件。
