「精准拿捏」总统与第一夫人?他把“顶级流量”玩成提款机

继阿根廷总统米莱的“LIBRA”项目被指控为骗局后,一纸针对美国第一夫人“MELANIA”币的集体诉讼,将幕后操盘手Benjamin Chow及其团队Kelsier Ventures的“作案剧本”彻底公之于众。

这一次,诉讼揭露的已不仅是单个骗局,而是一套将国家元首声望「批量变现」的标准化流水线。

借用“第一夫人”与“总统”的信任红利

2025 年 1 月,美国第一夫人Melania Trump 名字冠名的 Solana meme coin “MELANIA” 发布,仅比其丈夫唐纳德·特朗普推出的官方代币晚了两天。上线后,MELANIA 代币价格在数小时内飞涨,随即在接下来的数月内暴跌 99%。随后,社群发起集体诉讼。

几乎同一时期,阿根廷总统 Javier Milei 公开宣传 Solana 代币 “LIBRA”,声称其用于支持阿根廷本地中小企业融资。代币发行当天迅速冲上数十亿美元市值,随后暴跌 90%,Milei 紧急删除相关推文。

虽然公众舆论曾一度将指责矛头对准这两位政要,但原告律师明确表示:Milei 和 Melania 并非主谋,而是被用作“包装道具”——“这些面孔和品牌被用来为本质上是流动性陷阱的骗局提供合法性”。

“Plaintiffs do not allege those public figures were culpable; they were merely the window dressing for a crime engineered by Meteora and Kelsier.”
——Hurlock v. Kelsier Ventures 诉状原文

从 LIBRA 到 MELANIA,一套“复刻模板”式骗局

诉状揭示,Meteora 创始人 Chow 是整场骗局的“中枢”,负责技术部署、代币结构设计;而 Kelsier Ventures 作为营销与发布执行机构,由 Hayden Davis 领导,负责社群包装、流量发动与资金炒作。

该团队运作方式如出一辙,诉状称至少已复制此流程 15 次,主要步骤包括:

  1. 借名包装:以政要或公众人物命名代币(如 MELANIA、LIBRA),制造“官方背书”幻觉;

  2. 社交造势:通过 Twitter/X、KOL、群组投放,引爆流量;

  3. 预控仓位:大量代币预分配至核心钱包,散户无从公平参与;

  4. 短线拉盘:利用自动做市机制(AMM)制造价格上涨;

  5. 闪电套现:在价格高位将代币转至交易所套现;

  6. 团队“缄默”:代币暴跌后社群无回应,项目已实质性归零。

链上数据分析平台 Bubblemaps 报告指出,MELANIA 和 LIBRA 的发行钱包间存在明显重叠,资金流向指向 Chow 与 Kelsier 背后控制的钱包群。

“操盘者联盟”

表面上看,Benjamin Chow 是一位再正常不过的 Web3 创业者。他在 Solana 生态创建了 Meteora–一个自动做市商(AMM)协议,技术底子扎实,也曾代表项目参加峰会。但在一份份曝光的法院文件与链上证据中,他却被逐步刻画成了一位冷静、精密的操盘人:一位“懂技术的交易设计师”。

他没有亲自为 MELANIA 或 LIBRA 币站台,也没有出现在任何营销视频中。但几乎所有的链上痕迹:代币智能合约部署者、早期持仓分布、AMM 初始化逻辑、价格曲线模型——都指向了他。

在最近的诉讼案Hurlock v. Kelsier Ventures中,原告律师明确指出:这些代币虽然挂着政要名号,但真正的中枢是 Chow。根据获得的 Telegram 对话截图,他不仅设定了多个代币的发行策略,还直接指导团队如何操控流动性池,设计“抬价—出货”的节奏。甚至连市场情绪何时制造、何时撤退,都有固定模板可循。

而真正让这个“剧本”可以反复执行的,是一个以 Kelsier Ventures 为核心的营销与操盘团队——他们是 Chow 的“幕后执行人”。

Kelsier Ventures 表面上是一家 Web3 市场咨询公司,但实际上更像一个职业炒作集团。

其 CEO Hayden Davis 年仅28岁,却在 MEME 币的世界里早已是“老江湖”。他与父亲 Charles Davis 及弟弟 Gideon Davis 一同控制着 Kelsier 的大部分运作,被媒体称为“Davis 三人组”。

他们的任务,是把 Chow 的操盘逻辑“包装成人设故事”,用政客、第一夫人、国家复兴、自由主义这些标签,赋予代币某种“政策希望”的错觉。

Hayden Davis 曾公开承认自己“持有百万 LIBRA 并不知如何处理”,但更讽刺的是,他同时也出现在阿根廷总统府的合照中,被描述为“总统的加密顾问”。甚至在 LIBRA 暴雷后,阿根廷检察官要求国际刑警组织对他发布红色通缉令。

更令人玩味的是,媒体调查显示,这个 Davis 家族并非白手起家。他们曾在过去卷入过伪造支票、利用宗教网络洗钱等旧案,相关档案藏在纽约州司法公开数据库中。这些经历虽然未必足以直接定罪,但构成了他们高超资金流转与操盘手法的“实践背景”。

Chow 和 Kelsier 的合作模式是完全标准化的产业链。一方提供技术与链上控制权,另一方制造叙事与情绪爆发点。原告律师将其称为“代币制造工厂”:政要负责出镜、社群负责造势、钱包负责砸盘,投资者负责接盘。

而在所有这些链路背后,那些控盘的钱包静静等待着:它们控制着初始发行、冲高后的分批出货、乃至多链桥接转向交易所的每一笔路径。MELANIA、LIBRA、M3M3 等十余枚代币,几乎都共享了同一套钱包生态与行为轨迹。

  • LIBRA:官方钱包控制 70%+ 初始供应,发售后数小时转入多个匿名地址并快速出货,链上标记资金转向 MEXC 等交易所。

  • MELANIA:预挖钱包持有比例高,交易初期流动性池中存在 Chow 关联地址,随后套现后链上沉寂。

  • 冻结资金:法院曾冻结超 5760 万 USDC,但因证据不足于 2025 年 8 月被解冻。

由于核心钱包未在链上公开标记,追踪难度大,但 Bubblemaps 图示仍显示高度重叠资金流路径,证明幕后团队并未清理链上痕迹。

他们为何敢对总统与第一夫人“下手”?

Chow与Kelsier能将项目包装至“国家领导人亲自转发”,并非拥有真正的政治资源,而是系统性地利用了当前漏洞:

1. Meme Coin游走于监管灰色地带:非证券、不注册、无募资,难以适用传统的证券法框架。

2. 其团队精通“病毒式营销”,擅于操控市场情绪,自称“FOMO制造者”。

3. 他们精准锁定阿根廷、尼日利亚等渴望展示改革形象的新兴市场。这些国家的监管薄弱与领导人的曝光需求,正好为他们的“政要包装”提供了战略入口。

如果说Web3的初心是“去中心化自治”,那么Chow与Kelsier便是最尖锐的讽刺。他们并非设计了完美的骗局,而是发现了一个可以公然转移巨额财富的系统后门——并将此操作重复了十几次。

而市场上,散户们仍在疯狂追逐着那个名为“官方授权”的海市蜃楼。

Why Is the World Nervous About Japan Raising Interest Rates?

In June 2026, the Bank of Japan raised its policy rate to 1%, marking its first hike to this level since 1995. While this rate remains low compared to global peers like the US and Europe, the move signals a profound shift for a nation that has been a global source of ultra-cheap funding for decades. Japan's long-standing near-zero or negative interest rates had facilitated massive "yen carry trades," where international investors borrowed low-cost yen to invest in higher-yielding assets worldwide, such as US tech stocks and emerging market bonds. This made Japan a critical, often overlooked, source of global liquidity. Japan's ultra-loose policy stemmed from structural challenges post-1990s asset bubble: aging demographics, chronic low inflation/deflation, and high public debt. Recent shifts, including sustained wage growth (exceeding 5% in recent years) and inflation consistently above the 2% target, have created a "wage-price spiral" possibility, prompting the policy normalization. The global market's concern lies not in the absolute rate but in the potential unwinding of the yen carry trade. As Japanese borrowing costs rise, the economics of these leveraged global investments change, potentially triggering deleveraging and capital outflows from risk assets. Market anxiety focuses on the end of a thirty-year consensus that Japan would perpetually provide cheap funding. Ultimately, the global impact will depend on the interplay with US monetary policy. While Japan is tightening, the significant interest rate differential with the US remains. The key future dynamic is whether simultaneous Japanese hikes and eventual US rate cuts will narrow this gap, forcing a major recalibration of global capital flows and asset pricing built on an era of abundant, cheap yen liquidity.

Research Report Analysis: MRVL's Optical AI Booming, Why High Valuation Keeps Morgan Stanley's Star Analyst Sidelined?

Report Recap: MRVL Optical AI Boom - Why High Valuation Led Morgan Stanley's Star Analyst to Stay Neutral? Morgan Stanley analyst Joseph Moore maintained an "Equal-weight" (Neutral) rating on Marvell Technology (MRVL) on May 28, raising the price target from $172 to $195, below the trading price. This stance comes despite Marvell reporting a record quarter and significantly raising its full-year outlook (FY27 revenue ~$11.5B, up ~40%). Moore's neutral view is based on valuation. The $195 target implies ~40x CY2027 P/E. He contrasts MRVL with NVDA: both trade near ~$200, but Nvidia's forward EPS is more than double Marvell's. For MRVL's valuation to hold, it needs consistent earnings upgrades, proof of networking market share gains, or certainty on large-scale custom AI chip shipments—none of which are confirmed yet. Growth is driven by two pillars: **1) Optical Interconnect** (the faster runner): Moore raised FY27 growth expectations to >70%, with the optical module product line nearing a $1B annualized run rate. **2) Custom AI Chips** (the climber): Confidence in FY28 is growing, but a major new customer project only ramps in FY28, with no current revenue visibility. Key risks are the underperforming Storage, Enterprise, and legacy Networking segments. Moore acknowledges the real AI opportunity but believes the current price already reflects it. For the stock to work from here, investors need to see the optical business hit its targets, custom chips ramp as planned, and a recovery in the weaker business units.

qinbaFrank: Review and Outlook of the AI Computing Power Wave — From the Three Debates on NVIDIA to Optical Interconnect and SpaceX IPO, How is Capital Rotating?

**Summary: Retrospective and Outlook on the AI Computing Wave - A Framework for Capital Rotation** Based on a presentation by investor qinbaFrank, this analysis reviews the AI computing market trajectory since 2023 and outlines a forward-looking framework. **Key Phases and Market Debates:** The AI bull market progressed through three major debates: 1) The necessity of massive capital expenditure (late 2023). 2) The sustainability of tech giants' spending (early 2024-early 2025). 3) Potential overestimation of compute needs (early 2025). Consensus solidified in late 2025 as model capabilities and utility demonstrably improved. **Core Thesis: Penetration Rate Drives Commercialization.** Unlike the 2000 dot-com bubble, the current AI wave benefits from mature digital infrastructure, enabling faster adoption. The critical threshold is 10% penetration; surpassing it (with recent enterprise intent surveys showing ~18%) indicates entry into a rapid growth "golden period" where user scale and willingness to pay increase simultaneously. **AI vs. Internet: A Fundamental Difference.** While the internet enhanced connection efficiency, AI directly substitutes human cognition and labor. Once AI performance exceeds the "societal average" human level, its commercial value scales exponentially as payment shifts from human labor costs to AI service fees. **Investment Logic Evolution in the Compute Chain.** The focus has expanded from GPUs to a systemic re-rating of the entire hardware stack: storage/HBM, CPUs, interconnects, power, and advanced packaging. The framework is: **short-term "scarcity pricing," mid-term "upgrade pricing" (e.g., optical interconnects, power networks), and long-term "Physical AI" pricing** (edge computing, robotics). **Market Focus Shift and Adjustment Framework.** The market is transitioning from "hardware scarcity" to "commercialization validation." The ultimate anchor for the narrative is sustained high growth in model providers' Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) and cloud business revenue, which justifies continued capital expenditure. Adjustments are categorized into three levels: * **L1 (Minor):** Driven by valuation compression or macro noise (e.g., single CPI print). Fundamentals intact. * **L2 (Moderate):** Triggered by significant macro events requiring risk repricing. Requires new data for confidence restoration. * **L3 (Major):** Involves a reset of the core industrial narrative or macro regime (e.g., AI commercialization growth stalling). The **crucial dividing line** is whether AI commercialization growth slows. Without a slowdown, pullbacks are likely L1/L2 "repricing" events. A genuine growth deceleration would signal an L2/L3 narrative reset. **Conclusion: A Foundational Civilizational Leap.** AI represents a foundational upgrade to "intelligence" itself—akin to humanity mastering fire—rather than a single-point industrial revolution. This底层能力跃迁 (underlying capability leap) will spawn successive waves of innovation (Agent, robotics, industry workflow重构). The journey will be波浪式的 (wavelike), driven by cycles of scarcity, technological upgrades, and远期兑现 (long-term realization).

A Country That Mined Bitcoin for 8 Years Has Built Its Own Dedicated Crypto Bank

A country that has been mining Bitcoin for eight years has established its own dedicated crypto bank. DK Bank, located in Bhutan's newly developed GMC special administrative zone, aims to fill the significant banking service gap for the cryptocurrency industry. Its CEO, Zheng YD, explained that most banks avoid crypto businesses due to a lack of risk management frameworks for decentralized and anonymous protocols. Operating under a unique "one country, two systems" governance model separate from mainland Bhutan, GMC aspires to become a financial hub for South Asia. DK Bank differentiates itself by offering integrated multi-currency accounts where users can manage both fiat currencies and stablecoins like USDT and USDC in one place, alongside services like Bitcoin-backed loans. The bank faces technical challenges in merging traditional banking systems with 24/7 crypto markets and implements rigorous on-chain and off-chain transaction monitoring for risk control. GMC's regulatory framework draws from Singaporean common law and Abu Dhabi's ADGM rules, offering a fast-track licensing process for already licensed firms while maintaining high standards. The initiative is part of Bhutan's longer-term crypto strategy, which includes Bitcoin mining since 2018. The focus, however, is on building a diversified institutional-grade crypto ecosystem—including custody and asset management—rather than retail speculative tokens. Proponents argue such sovereign crypto infrastructure is necessary, and Bhutan's early, measured approach exemplifies the thoughtful integration needed in global finance.
