特朗普儿子力挺加密浪潮:银行若不变,十年就消亡

金十数据Published on 2025-04-30Last updated on 2025-04-30

特朗普集团执行副总裁、美国总统特朗普的次子——埃里克·特朗普(Eric Trump)向银行发出警告:要么改变运营方式,要么走向灭亡。

“现代金融系统已经崩坏,它又慢又贵。”埃里克·特朗普在接受采访时表示,“区块链能做的所有事情,都可以比现有金融机构的方式更好地完成。SWIFT简直是一场灾难。”他痛批传统银行系统的缓慢与低效,称其“老旧落后”。这一批评在加密货币支持者中尤为普遍。

埃里克近年来频繁访问阿联酋,此举正值特朗普品牌房地产业务在该国及整个海湾地区不断扩展之际,同时阿联酋也正迅速崛起为全球加密货币重镇。

作为数字货币的积极支持者,埃里克·特朗普在去年12月于阿布扎比举办的“2024中东比特币大会”(Bitcoin MENA 2024)上曾预测比特币将涨至100万美元。然而,加密货币市场波动剧烈,近期因全球风险资产抛售而动荡不断,而这一趋势部分源于特朗普总统对多国征收的贸易关税。

“我们的银行体系偏袒超级富豪,”埃里克·特朗普表示,

“而真正让我进入(加密货币)领域的原因,是我意识到我们的银行系统正在被用作打压工具,针对的是我们国家的大多数人——那些账户上没有一连串零的人,或者那些戴过‘让美国再次伟大’红帽子的人。这迫使我转向加密领域。我可以告诉你,如果银行不警觉即将到来的变革,它们在十年内就会灭绝。”

就在银行业努力应对迅猛发展的加密行业之际,埃里克对传统金融系统的批评再度引发关注。去中心化金融(DeFi)正逐步消除对传统中介如银行的依赖。DeFi平台支持点对点交易,手续费低甚至为零,而这正是传统银行长期以来的重要利润来源。埃里克·特朗普说:

“你现在可以打开一个DeFi应用,或者任何加密货币应用,钱包对钱包瞬间转账,不仅没有高昂成本,也不存在传统银行那种不确定性。”

面对数字货币日益走红,摩根大通、高盛等金融巨头已陆续推出区块链网络及加密交易平台。不过,这一新兴资产类别仍面临批评。外界普遍担忧其缺乏监管、存在安全漏洞、价格剧烈波动,以及用户保护机制有限等风险。

特朗普政府承诺将开启一个加密产业的繁荣时代,特朗普总统及其夫人梅拉尼娅(Melania Trump)也先后推出了各自的“迷因币”,引发专家对潜在利益冲突的担忧。特朗普家族目前还掌舵一家名为“世界自由金融”(World Liberty Financial)的加密平台,由特朗普与地产大亨、现任白宫中东特使史蒂夫·威特科夫(Steve Witkoff)共同创办。

埃里克·特朗普与其兄小唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump Jr.)近日宣布,将通过世界自由金融推出一款与美元挂钩的稳定币。今年3月,两人还与Hut 8首席执行官阿舍尔·吉努特(Asher Genoot)共同创立了一家名为“美国比特币”(American Bitcoin)的比特币挖矿公司。

与此同时,阿联酋持续吸引全球加密投资者、初创企业、交易所及行业大型活动,这得益于其政府对加密产业持开放和支持态度。特朗普集团及白宫官员均高度评价与海湾阿拉伯国家的合作关系,认为这些市场以亲商政策和强劲增长潜力而具有战略价值。

埃里克·特朗普的上述言论发布之际,其父亲特朗普总统正计划于5月13日至16日访问海湾地区,行程预计包括阿联酋、沙特阿拉伯和卡塔尔。这将是自乔治·W·布什(George W. Bush)于2008年访阿以来,首位到访阿联酋的美国总统。此行被视为特朗普政府与海湾国家关系密切的象征。早在其首个总统任期内,特朗普的首次海外访问地就是沙特阿拉伯。

Crypto Payment Cards with $1.5 Billion Monthly Transaction Volume, Stuck in the 1990s

Monthly crypto payment card transaction volume has reached $15 billion, but the industry's development stage is comparable to debit cards in the 1990s, before they became a mainstream financial staple. A key limitation is the lack of established daily financial relationships, such as direct salary deposits and recurring bill payments, with crypto wallets. Despite annualized transaction volumes of approximately $18 billion, the market is concentrated and immature. The leading provider, RedotPay, commands over half the market share. User adoption is heavily skewed towards emerging markets like Bangladesh, India, and Nigeria, where access to USD and stable financial services is limited, rather than developed economies. The sector features four primary business models: 1) Card-issuing infrastructure providers, 2) Exchange-affiliated cards for user retention, 3) Decentralized wallet/DeFi cards with self-custody but high complexity, and 4) Stablecoin-focused digital banks, which dominate transaction volume by offering integrated financial services. The article argues that a pure payment functionality is insufficient for long-term success, mirroring the historical trajectory of traditional debit cards. Future winners will need to: 1) Control the upstream flow of funds, 2) Secure defensible niches in underserved markets, and 3) Most crucially, build core account relationships that integrate into users' daily financial lives. Without this evolution, crypto cards risk remaining niche prepaid tools rather than becoming universal financial infrastructure.

$7.8 Billion in Theft and Losses Reveals the Truth: Security Costs Have Become an Unavoidable Liquidity Tax for DeFi

"7.8 Billion in Thefts Reveals the Truth: Security Costs Have Become DeFi's Unavoidable 'Liquidity Tax'" A summary of Q2 2026 data reveals that security risks are now a fundamental capital cost in DeFi, directly impacting user returns and liquidity decisions. DeFiLlama recorded 88 hacking incidents with quantified losses totaling $780.3 million in Q2. April was the worst month with $644.8 million lost. DeFi protocol attacks accounted for $735.8 million, while cross-chain bridge exploits resulted in $354.4 million in losses (note: some event categorizations overlap). Cumulatively, DeFi hacks have reached $7.85 billion, with bridge losses at $3.26 billion. The quarter highlighted two primary risk categories: high-value infrastructure vulnerabilities (e.g., bridges, oracles, admin keys) causing massive single losses, and more frequent contract logic bugs. This signals a critical market shift: from post-incident analysis to preemptive pricing of risk. Users and liquidity providers now implicitly factor in the security of the entire asset pathway—not just pool APY—into their decisions. This hidden "risk premium" manifests through wider spreads, higher liquidity incentives, and capital migration towards perceived safer routes. Cross-chain bridge risks, responsible for over $353 million in Q2 losses, exemplify this change. Asset routing credibility is now part of the transaction. Following incidents like KelpDAO and THORChain, markets are demanding safer bridges, asset insurance, and clearer risk disclosure, increasing the cost of capital for riskier pathways. Consequently, security spending is transforming from a defensive cost into a core distribution cost for attracting liquidity. Protocols must invest more in audits, bug bounties, real-time monitoring, and insurance to remain competitive. Users are increasingly demanding transparency about fund flow paths, associated risks, and contingency plans. The key indicators for the industry's direction will be whether capital continues consolidating in trusted channels, if projects delay launches for enhanced audits, if insurance premiums rise, and if aggregators start displaying security risk metrics. Q2 2026 may be remembered not just as a bad period, but as the point when DeFi underwent a fundamental asset risk repricing, where security became a persistent,隐性 tax on all on-chain activity.

Breaking News: The "Worker's Edition" Claude 5 Is Here, Everyone Can Use It

BREAKING: Claude Sonnet 5, dubbed "Fennec," is now the default model for all Free and Pro users. This mid-tier model boasts the strongest Agent capabilities in the Sonnet line yet, with performance rivaling the flagship Opus 4.8. It features autonomous planning and can utilize browser and terminal tools—capabilities previously exclusive to costly, large models. Key benchmarks highlight significant gains over its predecessor, Sonnet 4.6, in reasoning, tool use, coding, and knowledge work. Sonnet 5 scores 63.2% on SWE-bench Pro (surpassing GPT-5.5's 58.6%), 80.4% on Terminal-Bench 2.1, and 57.4% on Humanity's Last Exam (just 0.5% behind Opus 4.8). It even slightly outperforms Opus 4.8 in some knowledge tasks. Anthropic positions it as delivering ~90% of Opus's capability at a fraction of the cost. Pricing is aggressive: a limited-time promotional rate of $2 per million input tokens and $10 per million output tokens (reverting to $3/$15 after August 31). This undercuts Opus 4.8 ($5/$25) and GPT-5.5 ($5/$30). However, a new tokenizer may increase token counts by 1.0-1.35x, affecting final costs post-promotion. Notably, Sonnet 5 excels in security, with a mere 0.93% browser injection attack success rate, outperforming Mythos 5 and Opus 4.8. Its prompt injection defense matches Opus 4.8 at 0.19%. Launching amid uncertainty around the region-restricted Fable 5, Sonnet 5 is globally available. It targets the mid-market, offering near-flagship performance at a competitive price, effectively lowering the barrier for multi-Agent development and presenting a compelling alternative for cost-conscious developers.
