聚焦美国财长提名,Crypto行业能否再迎新盟友?

随着美国当选总统特朗普第二任期临近,其内阁的一些关键职位已在过去几天陆续浮出水面,但围绕着财政部长一席的争夺战却愈发激烈。

根据目前的市场预期,新一任财政部长的提名最早可能于本周公布,但特朗普团队尚未就最终人选作出决定。今日早间,Fox Business 记者 Charles Gasparino 透露特朗普团队已向贝莱德首席执行官 Larry Fink 和至少一名贝莱德高管寻求意见;此外特朗普还将会见 Coinbase 首席执行官 Brian Armstrong,拟讨论下届政府的人事问题。

预测市场 Polymarket 之上已开放了财长职位的竞猜池,截至 10: 00 左右该池交易量已突破 200 万美元,当前较为热门的潜在人选如下(仅覆盖前 6 大候选人,剩余人选可能性极低):

  • 前美联储理事 Kevin Warsh;

  • Key Square Group 创始人 Scott Bessent;

  • Cantor Fitzgerald 首席执行官 Howard Lutnick;

  • Apollo Global Management 首席执行官 Marc Rowan;

  • 前美国贸易代表 Robert Lighthizer;

  • 参议员 Bill Hagerty。

聚焦美国财长提名,Crypto行业能否再迎新盟友?

当下,市场最为期待的显然是一个对加密货币态度更加友好的人物掌控财政大权,进而为行业提供一个更为宽松的生长环境。接下来,Odaily星球日报就将依次梳理这六大潜在候选人过往对待加密行业态度。

概率领跑者:Kevin Warsh

首先值得庆贺的是,当前提名概率最高的前美联储理事 Kevin Warsh(46% )很早以前就被视为加密货币的支持者 —— 甚至要早于特朗普的态度转变。

早在 2021 年初接受 CNBC 采访时,Warsh 就曾表示:“在美元走弱的经济形势下,比特币作为投资组合的一部分是有意义的。”

2022 年,Warsh 还投资了 BTC、ETH 的 ETF 主推力量之一 Bitwise。

不过,Warsh 本人存在的一定争议是他曾多次表态支持央行数字货币(CBDC),崇尚去中心化精神的加密货币行业或许不太喜欢这一点。

目前的最新消息是,特朗普团队支持 Warsh 担任美国财长,Warsh 已受邀前往特朗普的海湖庄园进行洽谈,但相关讨论仍在继续。

索罗斯的前副手:Scott Bessent

对冲基金 Key Square Group 的创始人、索罗斯的前副手 Scott Bessent 曾经被视为最具可能性的下一任财长人选,其本人的提名概率此前也一度领跑 Polymarket,但随着“美利坚护国公”Elon Musk 公开反对 Bessent 担任财长,其提名概率直接下降。

正如 Musk 批评 Bessent “只会一切照旧”那样,Bessent 被认为是一个更为传统的人,美联社曾在报道中将其定位为“加密货币的怀疑者”。

不过随着特朗普愈发支持加密货币,Bessent 的态度也发生了转变,其曾在七月表示:“我对总统接受加密货币感到兴奋,我认为这与共和党非常契合,加密货币代表自由,加密货币经济将继续存在。 ”

目前的最新消息是,Bessent 可能会转而出任国家经济委员会主席一职,但这一结果同样尚未确定。

Tether 背后的男人:Howard Lutnick

Elon Musk 在公开反对 Bessent 的同时也曾公开支持特朗普过渡团队联席主席、Cantor Fitzgerald 首席执行官 Howard Lutnick,受此影响 Lutnick 的提名概率也曾一度领跑,但之后又因 Warsh 即将上位的传闻流出而下滑。

Lutnick 本人是一位绝对的加密货币支持者,甚至可以被视为几大候选人中最亲加密的一位。

Lutnick 的 Cantor Fitzgerald 管理着 Tether 超过一半的稳定币储备;Lutnick 曾亲自登台纳什维尔的比特币大会发表讲话;Lutnick 还曾提倡将比特币归类为类似于黄金和石油的商品,并呼吁对加密货币领域进行更明确的监管。

7000 亿美元的掌舵者:Marc Rowan

资管巨头 Apollo Global Management 首席执行官 Marc Rowan 的名字最近才被列入潜在候选人之类。

虽然 Rowan 的公司聚焦于另类资产投资,但其本人却极少对加密货币进行表态。2022 年,Rowan 曾在接受彭博社采访时表示“围绕加密货币建立的生态系统简直令人惊叹”;然而到了今年,当 Rowan 被问及加密货币是否会在美国金融体系的未来中发挥作用时,他却表示这个话题“超出了他的理解范围”。

金融时报报道表示,一些华尔街高管对 Rowan 的潜在提名资格持积极态度,但他们也认为 Rowan 很难放弃资管规模高达 7000 亿美元的 Apollo Global Management 首席执行官一职。

“贸易战”设计师:Robert Lighthizer

Robert Lighthizer 并未明确表达对加密货币的态度,但市场仍需注意 Lighthizer 的潜在任命。

Lighthizer 曾在特朗普第一任期内担任前美国贸易代表,其被视为“铁杆贸易保护主义者”,Politico 更是曾将其称为特朗普对中国关税贸易战的“设计师”,市场普遍担忧 Lighthizer 的任命将影响到全球商贸活动的活性及稳定性。

加密法案推动者:Bill Hagerty

田纳西州共和党参议员 Bill Hagerty 上任财长的概率并不高,但他作为参议员却曾实际推动了加密货币相关法案的推进。

今年 10 月,Hagerty 曾公布了一份立法讨论草案,旨在为稳定币建立监管框架,投资银行 TD Cowen 在报告中曾表示该草案可能会成为 2025 年未来法案的大纲。

Hagerty 也曾表态支持特朗普推动美国成为加密货币中心的举措,并曾在七月谈及比特币产业时表示:“我们需要确保这件事在美国发生。”

加密货币的监管春天

总而言之,下一任美国财长的人选预计很快便将浮出水面。从潜在的继任者角度来看,除了态度不明的 Robert Lighthizer 之外,当前已曝出的名字大多都对加密货币持有相对友好的态度。

对于长期饱受监管困扰的加密货币行业而言,接下来的几年可能会是行业历史上生长环境最为宽松的几年,的这段监管春天或将是业内各方寻求发展的最佳契机。

Beyond Private Keys: From Wallets and L2 to Supply Chains, How to Guard the Security Perimeter of Web3?

Beyond Private Keys: Securing Web3's Expanding Attack Surface from Wallets to L2s and Supply Chains The crypto space faced a wave of security incidents in June, with over $75 million lost across 40 major attacks. These breaches highlighted risks beyond private key theft, exposing vulnerabilities across the entire user interaction chain. Wallet security was compromised not through stolen seed phrases, but via a critical flaw in the Cardano wallet SecondFi's signing implementation. This bug allowed attackers to potentially derive private keys from publicly visible signature data, emphasizing that wallet security depends on correct cryptographic implementation, ideally in open-source, auditable code. Layer-2 networks also revealed complex trust chain risks. Attacks on legacy Aztec deployments exploited inconsistencies in proof systems, showing that a valid zero-knowledge proof is only as secure as its underlying rules. Another attack on Taiko's SGX-based prover stemmed from a leaked signing key and inadequate verification checks. Furthermore, a technical glitch halted Base's block production, underscoring that L2 security encompasses network availability and reliable user exit paths as much as asset safety. Finally, the Polymarket incident demonstrated that even audited smart contracts are not immune. A compromised third-party supplier led to a malicious script being injected into the platform's frontend, resulting in user fund losses. This "supply chain attack" shows that the security of the entire interaction path—from the webpage to the wallet signature—is critical. The conclusion is clear: Web3 security now involves safeguarding the entire journey from transaction intent to on-chain settlement. Users must adopt layered security habits: isolating long-term holdings, using dedicated wallets for daily interactions, scrutinizing transaction details before signing, and managing authorizations cautiously. Defense must evolve from protecting a single point (the private key) to securing a complete chain of interactions.

Robinhood Chain Goes Viral in One Week: Memes Drive Traffic, Stablecoins Support TVL

Robinhood Chain, an Arbitrum-based Layer 2 network launched on July 1st, experienced explosive growth in its first week. While meme coin hype drove user activity, stablecoin deposits fueled its surge in Total Value Locked (TVL). The chain's rapid adoption was driven by multiple factors. CEO Vlad Tenev reversed his initial stance, endorsing the chain for meme coins despite its original focus on Real-World Assets (RWA). The integration of the popular Solana-based launchpad Pump.fun significantly lowered the barrier for meme trading. Furthermore, the prediction market application World announced a migration from Solana to Robinhood Chain. Meme coin mania, led by tokens like CASHCAT, generated massive trading volume, with daily active addresses skyrocketing from near zero to hundreds of thousands. However, the primary driver of the chain's TVL, which soared past $234 million, was a major institutional deposit. Ethena injected approximately $50 million in stablecoins into the Morpho lending protocol, which underpins Robinhood's Earn product, accounting for the bulk of locked value. This highlights two concurrent narratives: retail-driven meme speculation boosting transactions, and institutional stablecoin deposits building foundational liquidity. In contrast, the chain's flagship RWA offerings, like tokenized stocks, remain a minor part of the ecosystem at around $12.8 million. The first week demonstrates a path where speculative trading and yield-seeking capital provide initial momentum, while the core RWA vision is still in early development.

The Illusion of a Prodigy

The Illusion of the "Genius Youth" The article discusses the recent interview incident involving Li Bojie, a former "Huawei Genius Youth," and AI company DeepSeek. It highlights the core conflict not as a simple case of suspected cheating during a coding test, but as a profound mismatch in expectations. Li, with an impressive background including entrepreneurship, a role at Huawei, and a position as a chief scientist, was deeply affected by a standard remote interview where the interviewer questioned his actions. The key point is his stated view of DeepSeek as the "pinnacle of the Chinese tech world." For him, the interview was a quest for identity validation—proof he belonged at the center of the new AI era. For DeepSeek, it was a routine skills assessment. The article argues that Li, while publicly rejecting the "genius" label, subconsciously expected to be treated as a peer for discussion, a courtesy extended by other companies like MiniMax and Xiaomi. DeepSeek, however, adhered strictly to its standardized process, prioritizing consistent, merit-based evaluation over individual prestige. This clash symbolizes a larger shift in the tech industry. The core thesis is that the AI era is dismantling the old system where past titles, companies, and accumulated experience guaranteed status. Now, with rapid knowledge obsolescence, "excellence is calculated in real-time." Li's anxiety—waiting weeks for the DeepSeek interview despite other offers—stems from the fear that rejection means being left behind by technological progress. The article concludes that this incident is a harbinger; soon, everyone will face a constant, implicit "interview" with the AI age itself, asking: "You were excellent yesterday. What about today?"

Vanguard Group Enters the Arena, Opening a New Crypto Portal for 50 Million Traditional Investors

Vanguard Group, the world's second-largest asset manager with $12 trillion in assets under management and over 50 million investors, has signaled a significant strategic shift by posting a job opening for a "Head of Digital Assets, Personal Wealth." The role entails developing a comprehensive digital asset strategy, establishing long-term plans, and overseeing the full integration of digital assets into Vanguard's wealth management platform, covering areas like custody, settlement, asset tokenization, and stablecoins. This move marks a notable reversal from the firm's previous stance. In 2024, Vanguard refused to list spot Bitcoin ETFs and removed Bitcoin futures products. By late 2025, it allowed some third-party crypto ETF trading but reiterated it would not create its own crypto funds. The new hire represents a third step: building an internal team to integrate digital assets into its core infrastructure, moving beyond merely listing products. The initiative focuses on foundational financial infrastructure—how tokenized assets and digital settlement systems can connect to Vanguard's existing platform, which primarily serves long-term, conservative investors. While Vanguard maintains it will not launch proprietary crypto ETFs, it is proactively preparing its systems for a future involving tokenized assets and stablecoins, which Citigroup projects could reach a $5.5 trillion market by 2030. Vanguard's scale means its chosen standards for custody, settlement, and compliance could set de facto rules for the broader wealth management industry. The firm is acting despite regulatory uncertainty and cautious market sentiment (e.g., Citi recently lowered crypto price targets). Analysts suggest even a minimal 0.01% allocation from Vanguard's asset base would bring ~$12 billion into digital assets, forcing the development of robust risk and operational frameworks. Ultimately, Vanguard's focus is on building the plumbing for digital assets to potentially serve its vast client base, an effort whose impact may extend far beyond any single market cycle.
