Abstract

他说:“这是一个令人难以置信的对比。我们有非常严格的法律禁止外国国民进行竞选捐款。所以,这里的巨大讽刺在于,许多购买这种货币的人本无资格向总统竞选捐款100美元。我们有一系列旨在防止这些发生的法律,这实际上是两党都同意应该避免的合法事情。然而,这种情况却正在上演。

当地时间周四,200多位富有的、大多数匿名的加密人士将前往华盛顿与美国总统唐纳德·特朗普共进晚餐。


据区块链分析公司Nansen的数据分析,此次入场券的代价不菲,这些“赢家”在特朗普官方加密货币代币 $TRUMP 上的花费从5.5万美元到3770万美元不等。


晚宴组织者通过在特定时间点持有 $TRUMP 代币的多少来决定获得席位的资格。Nansen发现,这些“赢家”总计在特朗普的官方加密货币上花费了3.94亿美元,尽管其中一些人在竞赛结束后已出售了部分或全部持仓。当然,花费差异巨大:前七名每人花费超过1000万美元,而末尾24名每人花费不足10万美元。


研究显示,有三分之一(67人)的“赢家”花费超过100万美元,平均到每位“赢家”的花费为1,788,994.42美元。

据追踪加密货币价格的CoinMarketCap显示,与许多Meme币类似,$TRUMP的价值波动剧烈,Nansen追踪了每位“竞标者”在购买 $TRUMP 时的花费。


这220名买家受邀参加在特朗普国家高尔夫俱乐部(华盛顿特区)举办的晚宴,尽管竞赛网站声称特朗普“作为嘉宾出席晚宴,不为此募集资金”,但其同时指出,$TRUMP 代币项目80%的所有权归两家与特朗普相关的公司——CIC Digital和Fight Fight Fight LLC所有。
这场于上周一结束的个人加密货币及相关竞标活动,为特朗普看似利用总统职位谋取私利的行为又添一例。


他的商业利益由其子小唐纳德·特朗普控制的信托基金持有,而且他将许多家族企业与其总统活动交织在一起,包括在他的社交俱乐部(如这次加密货币晚宴)举办活动,以及在其社交媒体应用Truth Social上发布独家政治声明。


特朗普的加密货币也通过交易为其关联公司带来收益。每笔 $TRUMP 代币交易都会产生一笔交易费。另一家加密货币研究公司Chainalysis估计,在竞赛宣布后的头两天内,$TRUMP 代币就产生了近90万美元的交易费。

布伦南司法中心(Brennan Center for Justice)选举和政府项目主任Dan Weiner告诉NBC News,虽然大多数联邦雇员被法律禁止利用职务谋取经济利益,但总统却在很大程度上获得豁免。


Dan Weiner表示:“总统不受制于几乎所有其他联邦政府工作人员都适用的广泛利益冲突禁令。”他说:“总体而言,即使按照第一届特朗普政府的标准来看,这都相当疯狂,那时各种人都在总统的酒店做生意。现在这远远超出了那个范畴,但这并不一定意味着他违法。”
白宫发言人安娜·凯利(Anna Kelly)在一份声明中表示:“总统正在努力为美国人民争取更好的协议,而不是为他自己。特朗普总统只为美国公众的最佳利益行事——这就是为什么他们尽管面临多年来自虚假新闻媒体对他及其企业的谎言和虚假指控,仍然绝大多数地再次选举他担任此职务。”
即便排名垫底的赢家,其花费也远超美国公民直接捐赠给政治候选人的合法上限—3500美元。
本周二,最高花费者公布身份为加密企业家孙宇晨(Justin Sun),他曾于3月告诉福布斯,他已成为加勒比小岛国圣基茨和尼维斯(St. Kitts and Nevis)的公民。孙宇晨曾被美国证券交易委员会(SEC)起诉,但在特朗普执政期间,此案已被暂停。


大多数其他竞赛赢家的身份仍未公开,仅通过其化名和加密货币钱包地址为人所知。然而,据独立加密研究员Molly White分析,大多数与会者似乎是外国国民。Molly White追踪了每个获胜钱包在不同加密货币交易所的交易,并注意到持有者似乎使用了法律上不允许美国公民使用的交易所。


Molly White告诉NBC News,在220个与竞标获胜者相关的钱包中,有158个(占72%)似乎是外国钱包。


《纽约时报》的一项调查报道称,获胜者榜单中包括来自新加坡和澳大利亚的加密货币企业代表。


Dan Weiner指出,竞标获胜者中,非美国公民的比例很高值得注意,因为非美国公民向美国政治候选人捐款通常是非法的。


他说:“这是一个令人难以置信的对比。我们有非常严格的法律禁止外国国民进行竞选捐款。所以,这里的巨大讽刺在于,许多购买这种货币的人本无资格向总统竞选捐款100美元。我们有一系列旨在防止这些发生的法律,这实际上是两党都同意应该避免的合法事情。然而,这种情况却正在上演。

In Such a Crowded Cross-border Payment Track, Where Does the Next Stop Lie in the Future?

The crowded cross-border payments industry faces a paradox: intense competition above water with financing and narratives, while beneath, price wars and shrinking margins in basic PSP services are common. The path forward lies not in simple "cross-border" solutions but in deep **localization**. Success requires mastering the fragmented and tightening regulations of fiat currencies in each market—the "last mile" of compliance, banking, and settlement. Many Chinese PSPs have succeeded by following Chinese merchants overseas but have not deeply penetrated mainstream local merchant ecosystems abroad. Their strong product capabilities need to be applied to new, complex markets. The future belongs to companies that evolve from single-channel providers to **cross-border capital network operators**. This means moving beyond competing on transaction fees to creating internal networks that optimize capital efficiency through multi-directional matching, netting, and position reuse across countries and currencies. For Web3 and stablecoins, the key is integration, not replacement. Stablecoins offer efficiency gains but cannot bypass the foundational trust, compliance, and legal frameworks of traditional finance. The realistic path is the gradual adoption and "taming" of Web3 technologies by established financial institutions. The ultimate solution is a **dual clearing infrastructure** combining deep local fiat capabilities (local accounts, compliance, banking) with lightweight stablecoin-native capabilities (on-chain settlement, wallets). The biggest opportunity lies not in oversaturated mainstream corridors but in complex, underserved regional corridors (e.g., specific CIS, Middle East-Southeast Asia, or Latin American trade pairs). The winners will be those who build hard-to-replicate, deep capabilities in these areas—acting as the essential "clearing shovels" or infrastructure providers. The future keywords are **more local, more networked, and more stablecoin-native**. High-profit opportunities remain in the non-standardized, difficult-to-replicate deep waters of the industry, requiring genuine on-the-ground presence and long-term patience.

Lightning Fast Five-Whip Combo! Strategy's Self-Rescue Plan Officially Released

Strategy, amidst the STRC de-pegging crisis, has unveiled its "Digital Credit Capital Framework" self-rescue plan. The five-part framework includes: 1) **Cash Reserves**: Management of ~$2.55B in USD reserves, dedicated solely to covering ~17.4 months of preferred stock dividends and debt interest, with a 12-month minimum coverage floor. 2) **Dividend Policy**: STRC's dividend yield rises to 12% from July 1st, with monthly reviews. Strategy clarifies de-pegging does not automatically trigger further hikes. 3) **Preferred Stock Buyback**: A $1B authorization, prioritizing STRC repurchases to support its price, reduce future dividend obligations, and signal commitment, using funds separate from dividend reserves. 4) **Common Stock Buyback**: A separate $1B authorization for MSTR stock, aimed at creating shareholder value when the stock is deemed undervalued, establishing a two-way capital management mechanism. 5) **Bitcoin Monetization**: Formal authorization to sell BTC (up to $1.25B earmarked) to build USD reserves, cover dividends/interest, or fund buybacks, marking a strategic shift where BTC becomes a managed asset rather than a strictly "hold-only" reserve. Market reaction saw MSTR and STRC shares rise pre-market, while BTC remained stable. The plan aims to restore confidence in STRC, ensure dividend sustainability, and reopen Strategy's funding channels.

Trump Vance 2024: A Political Journey Towards the White House Introduction As the 2024 U.S. presidential election approaches, the political landscape is abuzz with the reemergence of Donald Trump as a leading contender, this time alongside his running mate J.D. Vance. Their campaign, known as “Trump Vance 2024,” signals a strategic consolidation of support from both the traditional Republican base and the newly invigorated populist segments within the party. This article delves into the overarching themes and objectives of the Trump Vance 2024 campaign, exploring its historical context, key players, and policy aspirations. What is Trump Vance 2024? “Trump Vance 2024” refers to the campaign for the presidential elections led by Donald Trump and J.D. Vance. Following Trump’s tenure as the 45th President of the United States, his announcement to run again was accompanied by much anticipation. The campaign aims to capitalise on Trump's enduring popularity among his core supporters while rallying the electorate on key policy issues that resonate deeply with American voters. These issues include immigration reform, trade relations, economic recovery, education initiatives, and energy independence. Who is the Creator of Trump Vance 2024? The principal figures behind the Trump Vance 2024 campaign are Donald Trump and J.D. Vance. Donald Trump, a businessman and television personality turned politician, garnered significant media attention during his first term and has maintained a powerful influence within the Republican Party. J.D. Vance, a venture capitalist and author best known for his memoir “Hillbilly Elegy,” emerged as a prominent GOP figure during his successful Senate campaigning, where he positioned himself as a voice for rural America and working-class concerns. Who are the Investors of Trump Vance 2024? Unlike traditional projects or ventures in sectors such as technology or crypto, the Trump Vance 2024 campaign is not supported by investment foundations or organisations typically associated with financial sponsorship. Instead, its campaign financing relies on political donations from individual supporters, advocacy groups, and fundraising events. These funds are crucial for organising rallies, outreach initiatives, and the broad coalition-building needed to secure votes, especially in swing states that could heavily influence the election outcome. How Does Trump Vance 2024 Work? The Trump Vance 2024 campaign differentiates itself through its emphasis on grassroots mobilization, messaging that aligns closely with the sentiments of its supporters, and innovative outreach methods. Political Messaging and Core Issues The campaign focuses sharply on divisive issues, such as: Immigration: Trump advocates for stricter border controls and policies aimed at reducing illegal immigration, a pillar of his previous campaign. Trade: The duo proposes American-centric trade policies that prioritise domestic industries and challenge international dependencies, deeming protecting American jobs a top priority. Economy: A return to pro-business strategies and tax cuts reminiscent of Trump's first term is central to their economic policy. Education: The campaign accentuates school choice, parental control of educational content, and opposition to what they label “woke” policies in education. Energy Independence: The candidates blare their commitment to asserting U.S. energy dominance, including promoting fossil fuel production and recoiling from international climate commitments such as the Paris Agreement. Grassroots Engagement A significant feature of the campaign's operational strategy involves engaging directly with voters through town halls, rallies, and social media platforms. This engagement aims to create a dynamic and interactive dialogue with constituents, reinforcing the narrative that their voices matter in the decision-making process. Timeline of Trump Vance 2024 Significant Milestones Announcement: The campaign officially launched following Donald Trump’s declaration of candidacy in 2023, positioning J.D. Vance as his running mate. Policy Formulation: Throughout 2023 and into 2024, the campaign has articulated specific policy proposals to present to voters. Key Endorsements: As the primaries approach, the campaign anticipates securing endorsements from influential Republican figures and organisations. Rally Events: A series of campaign rallies are scheduled to commence in key states throughout 2024, aimed at building momentum and engaging with potential voters. Debates: Participation in primary debates where candidates outline their distinct positions and confront rivals is crucial to building public interest. Election Day: The culmination of the campaign will take place on November 5, 2024, where voters make their final decision. Conclusion The Trump Vance 2024 campaign represents a resurrection of Trump's electoral ambitions paired with Vance's fresh perspective as a rising star in the Republican Party. While the project's structure deviates starkly from traditional financing models seen in startup ecosystems, it is fundamentally driven by political donations and grassroots support. As the campaign progresses, it seeks to address core challenges facing the nation, shaping its message around national identity, economic resilience, and policy vigour. With a carefully plotted timeline of events leading to the election date, the outcomes of Trump Vance 2024 will prove pivotal not just for its candidates, but for the broader Republican agenda and the future of American politics.

Trump Cat Family, $Trump Cat: An Unraveled Mystery Introduction In the constantly evolving landscape of crypto projects and web3 innovations, a curious phenomenon has emerged—one that appears to straddle the line between cryptocurrency and internet meme culture. This is the enigmatic “Trump Cat Family”, also referred to as “$Trump Cat”. Though it might arouse curiosity among crypto enthusiasts, the reality appears far removed from the standard definition of a crypto project. This article aims to explore the concept of Trump Cat Family, bringing to light the context surrounding it and clarifying its status in the crypto realm. What is Trump Cat Family, $Trump Cat? At first glance, one might think that “Trump Cat Family” refers to a legitimate cryptocurrency or web3 project. However, upon deeper investigation, it becomes evident that the term lacks the trappings of a traditional crypto venture. Instead, “Trump Cat” seems to be predominantly associated with the viral meme culture that surged following controversial statements made by former U.S. President Donald Trump regarding Haitian immigrants. The media coverage sparked a myriad of memes, humorous interpretations, and a wave of social commentary. These memes depict various forms of satire centred on Trump's dialogue, often utilising cats in comedic and sometimes absurd scenarios. Rather than a structured project aimed at addressing technological advancements or financial transactions, the “Trump Cat Family” concept exists predominantly in the realm of internet humour. Who is the Creator of Trump Cat Family, $Trump Cat? In the investigation of who stands behind the “Trump Cat Family,” it becomes apparent that there exists no identifiable creator or founding figure. The phenomenon seems to have originated from collective internet expression, rather than from a singular visionary with a defined project goal. This anonymity further emphasises its status as a meme rather than a structured initiative akin to most known crypto projects. Who are the Investors of Trump Cat Family, $Trump Cat? Given that “Trump Cat Family” does not conform to the characteristics of a reputable crypto project, the question of investment becomes moot. There have been no established foundations or organisations expressing support for a project by this name. Instead, what exists are individual contributors to meme culture—hobbyists, artists, and social media users who collectively populate the internet with their interpretations and humour surrounding the term “Trump Cat.” This organic growth within digital human communication reflects more of a social commentary than a financial investment landscape. How Does Trump Cat Family, $Trump Cat Work? If one seeks to establish how “Trump Cat Family” operates, the answer is vastly different from what might be expected of standard crypto projects. There are no operational mechanisms, technological innovations, or unique features inherent to this phenomenon. Instead, it exists through viral spread online, relying upon social media platforms for proliferation. The “how” lies in the realm of culture and communication—its essence derived from the dynamics of social interaction rather than from established crypto protocols or blockchain functionalities. What makes “Trump Cat” unique, if anything, is the way it dramatizes a political dialogue through humour. People utilise engaging visuals, inside jokes, and inventive storytelling to convey sentiments regarding political figures and societal issues. The power of memes transcends traditional communication, encapsulating complex thoughts in a form that resonates widely, yet remains elusive in terms of quantifiable success or structured goals. Timeline of Trump Cat Family, $Trump Cat September 2024: The discourse surrounding Donald Trump's comments about Haitian immigrants allegedly consuming pets gains traction online, leading to a blossoming of memes and parodic interpretations across various platforms. Continuing Impact: Following this period, the “Trump Cat” phenomenon sees continued life as social media users leverage humour to address, critique, or simply celebrate the absurdity of political conversations and events. It is essential to note that as “Trump Cat Family” lacks the formal structure of a traditional project, the timeline consists primarily of anecdotal observation rather than remarkable milestones commonly found in recognised crypto ventures. Key Points Meme Culture: Rather than a structured crypto initiative, “Trump Cat” aligns more with the evolving landscape of internet memes. Origin of the Term: The genesis of “Trump Cat” relates directly to commentary on President Trump's remarks about Haitian immigrants, sparking widespread humorous representation. Absence of a Project Framework: The term fails to align with any defined project objectives, creators, or investors, marking it as a novel cultural experience rather than a crypto project. Conclusion In summary, the investigation into “Trump Cat Family, $Trump Cat” reveals a phenomenon entrenched in internet meme culture rather than a recognised project within the cryptocurrency or web3 sectors. The virality surrounding the term is birthed from collective user engagement, reflective of modern digital discourse rather than a formalised initiative with structure or strategic foresight. For all the curiosity it may invoke among those seeking the next big crypto project, “Trump Cat Family” serves as a testament to humanity's creativity, humour, and often absurd relationship with politics in the digital age.
