近3亿美元瞄准美国中期选举,Tether高管掌舵加密行业第二大政治基金

Abstract

加密行业政治行动委员会(PAC)Fellowship宣布任命Tether US监管事务副总裁Jesse Spiro为主席,这是Tether与该PAC首次建立正式关联。Fellowship去年9月宣称筹集超1亿美元,但联邦选举委员会记录显示其至今零支出。与此同时,由Coinbase等支持的Fairshake PAC已拥有1.93亿美元资金,并在伊利诺伊州投入860万美元。两大PAC合计近3亿美元资金将瞄准11月美国中期选举。 此次任命正值加密行业关键立法《数字资产市场明确法案》(CLARITY Act)在参议院陷入僵局,争议焦点是稳定币收益问题。最新妥协方案拟禁止基于持有余额的被动收益,但允许交易奖励计划,遭Coinbase等反对。Tether作为全球最大稳定币USDT发行方,其美国业务将直接受该法案影响。分析认为,Tether通过此次高管任命公开介入政治运作,旨在为行业立法博弈提供资金支持。

深潮导读:成立七个月、号称筹集逾 1 亿美元却至今未花一分钱的加密超级 PAC Fellowship,周三宣布任命 Tether US 监管事务副总裁 Jesse Spiro 为主席。这是 Tether 与该 PAC 之间首次建立正式公开关联。与此同时,加密行业另一大 PAC Fairshake 已坐拥 1.93 亿美元弹药库,两大 PAC 合计近 3 亿美元的政治资金正瞄准 11 月中期选举,而国会围绕稳定币收益的立法博弈仍悬而未决。

加密行业的政治军备竞赛正在升级。

据 Cointelegraph 4 月 1 日报道,Fellowship PAC 周三宣布,Tether US 监管事务副总裁 Jesse Spiro 将出任该组织主席,负责领导其下一阶段扩张,并将在未来数日内公布首批候选人背书名单。Fellowship 是一家成立于 2025 年 8 月的超级 PAC,去年 9 月宣称已从与加密行业结盟的未具名捐赠者处筹集「超过 1 亿美元」。

Spiro 在声明中表示:「这是美国创新的关键时刻。我们有机会确保美国继续作为建设者、企业家和技术进步的全球中心。Fellowship PAC 致力于支持那些理解利害所在并愿意采取行动的领导者。」

从「否认关联」到「高管坐镇」,Tether 与 Fellowship 的关系浮出水面

Fellowship PAC 自去年 9 月高调亮相以来,其背后金主身份一直是行业最大悬念之一。

该 PAC 成立时未披露任何管理人员、捐赠者或关键雇员。早期报道将 Tether 列为预期支持者,但 Tether International 随后正式否认与该 PAC 存在任何关联。据 CoinDesk 今年 2 月报道,Tether 国际发言人明确表示「Tether International 与 Fellowship 无任何隶属关系」。

但 FEC 记录讲述了另一个故事。Fellowship 的注册财务主管 Mitchell Nobel 是 Cantor Fitzgerald 的高管,而 Cantor Fitzgerald 正是为 Tether 管理数十亿美元储备金的托管机构。PAC 注册地址位于马里兰州贝塞斯达。

如今,一位现任 Tether US 高管正式出任 PAC 主席,此前的种种传闻终于落定为公开记录。据 BeInCrypto 报道,这是 Fellowship PAC 与 Tether 官方之间首次建立正式、公开的关联。

Spiro 在 2024 年加入 Tether,担任政府事务主管,此前曾在 PayPal 负责区块链与数字资产监管关系,更早之前在链上分析公司 Chainalysis 担任政府事务领导职务。

1 亿美元「弹药库」至今一弹未发,FEC 记录显示零支出

尽管 Fellowship 声称坐拥 1 亿美元资金,FEC 记录显示,截至去年 12 月 31 日,该 PAC 未报告任何捐赠收入或支出。自去年 9 月发布会以来,Fellowship 在 X 平台上仅发布过三条公开声明,近乎「隐身」运营。

这种反差引发了广泛质疑。CoinDesk 在 2 月 25 日的调查报道中指出,Fellowship 成立七个月来「从未到场」,其承诺的 1 亿美元资金在联邦选举委员会的披露中没有任何踪迹。

此次 Spiro 的任命被视为 Fellowship 从沉寂期重返公众视野的信号。PAC 表示将在未来数日公布首批候选人背书,距离 11 月中期选举还有七个多月。

白宫数字资产咨询委员会执行主任 Bo Hines 在 X 平台对该任命表示支持,发文称:「美国创新的战斗需要认真的倡导者。期待看到真正理解利害关系的领导者当选。」

加密 PAC 军备竞赛:Fairshake 坐拥 1.93 亿美元,已在伊利诺伊砸下 860 万

Fellowship 并非加密行业唯一的政治资金机器。由 Coinbase、Ripple 和 a16z 支持的 Fairshake PAC 及其附属组织截至今年 1 月报告持有 1.93 亿美元现金,是目前加密行业资金规模最大的超级 PAC。

Fairshake 已开始实际行动。据 Cointelegraph 报道,该 PAC 及其附属组织已在伊利诺伊州国会竞选中支出约 860 万美元,是其 2024 年在该州支出的六倍。3 月的伊利诺伊州初选中,部分 Fairshake 支持的候选人未能胜出,但中期选举仍有七个月窗口。

在 2024 年选举周期中,Fairshake 在媒体投放上花费超过 1.3 亿美元,支持的 50 多位候选人多数成功当选。据非营利监督组织 Public Citizen 的统计,2024 年流入选举的企业资金中,近一半来自加密行业。

如今,Fellowship 和 Fairshake 两大 PAC 合计近 3 亿美元的弹药库,加上加密行业其他政治捐赠力量,2026 年中期选举有望成为行业政治支出的新纪录。

立法暗战:稳定币收益争议卡住 CLARITY 法案,Tether 利益攸关

Spiro 任命的时间点并非偶然。加密行业最核心的立法优先事项《数字资产市场明确法案》(CLARITY Act)正陷入参议院僵局,而争议焦点之一正是稳定币收益,这直接影响 Tether 的商业模式。

CLARITY 法案于 2025 年 7 月以 294 票对 134 票通过众议院,今年 1 月在参议院农业委员会通过审议。但在参议院银行委员会层面,银行业与加密行业围绕稳定币能否向用户支付收益展开激烈博弈。

3 月 20 日,参议员 Thom Tillis 与 Angela Alsobrooks 就稳定币收益达成原则性妥协:禁止基于持有余额的被动收益支付,但允许基于交易活动的奖励计划。据 CoinDesk 报道,加密行业代表 3 月 23 日在国会山闭门审阅最新条文后,认为该语言过于狭窄且含糊。Coinbase 已两次表态不支持当前草案。

参议院银行委员会的审议(markup)目前定于 4 月下旬复活节休会结束后进行。参议员 Bernie Moreno 警告,若法案未能在 5 月前推进,加密立法可能在中期选举周期内无法再获得认真考量。

雪上加霜的是,白宫 AI 与加密事务沙皇 David Sacks 于 3 月 26 日确认其 130 天任期已届满,且政府不会任命继任者。加密行业最关键的立法冲刺阶段,将在失去白宫首席倡导者的情况下推进。

Tether 发行的 USDT 是全球最大的稳定币,市值约 1840 亿美元,但不面向美国居民。Tether 于去年推出了面向美国市场的合规稳定币 USAT。稳定币收益条款的最终走向,将直接决定 Tether 及其竞争对手在美国市场的运营空间。

在这一背景下,Tether 通过让高管出任 PAC 主席,将政治影响力建设从幕后推向台前,信号明确:在立法博弈的关键窗口期,用政治资金为行业利益护航。

NVIDIA CPU Advances, China's RISC-V Responds: Semiconductor Deep Dive - Part Four

NVIDIA is set to launch its new Vera AI data center CPU in China as early as August, with high pricing. While this move offers a new option, it highlights China's continued dependence on foreign-controlled Arm architecture. In response, the Chinese semiconductor industry is increasingly turning to RISC-V as a strategic alternative for achieving high-performance computing autonomy. The article explores the concept of the "impossible triangle" in CPU development—balancing prosperity, control, and autonomy—and posits that RISC-V's open-source, modular nature offers a unique path to achieving all three. While RISC-V is already dominant in embedded systems, the focus is now shifting to data centers and AI workloads. China has become a global hotspot for RISC-V development, driven by AI-driven compute demand, supply chain concerns from export controls, cost benefits of open-source, and strong policy support. Multiple Chinese companies have reportedly crossed the key performance threshold of 15 SPECint per GHz, a benchmark for entering the high-performance CPU club. Progress extends beyond single-core benchmarks. Companies are developing complete computing subsystems, including commercial-grade coherent network-on-chip (NoC) technology and server processors with up to 40 cores that strictly adhere to the RVA23 standard to ensure software compatibility. Real-world applications are emerging in areas like video transcoding and edge AI. However, significant challenges remain. The RISC-V ecosystem faces fragmentation, immature toolchains and verification processes, and gaps in single-core performance and energy efficiency compared to mature x86 and Arm architectures. The formidable software moat, epitomized by NVIDIA's CUDA, is a long-term hurdle. In conclusion, while RISC-V cannot immediately replace offerings like NVIDIA's Vera, it represents a viable long-term path for China to develop a self-sufficient, high-performance CPU ecosystem. The journey is acknowledged to be long and arduous, requiring sustained effort to overcome technical and ecosystem challenges.

My Coding Betting Dashboard is Profiting, but Polymarket is Truly Not a Good Place for 'Arbitrage'

The author built a custom monitoring dashboard for Polymarket, a prediction market platform, and tested it with $1,600, achieving over 30% returns. However, the core argument is that Polymarket is not a good venue for traditional arbitrage. The dashboard has two main sections: a "Portfolio Dashboard" for tracking active positions with key metrics like total capital, P&L, and a risk-control module using a tier system (T1, T2, T3), and an "Opportunity Watchlist" for monitoring markets. The article details a critical structural trap in binary markets: a bet with a high perceived probability of success still carries a 100% loss risk if wrong. The author's T1/T2/T3 system is designed to manage this by limiting position sizes based on conviction and time horizon, emphasizing that high confidence should not equal high concentration. A key insight is the danger of "pseudo-diversification"—betting on different markets driven by the same underlying variable. The author concludes that Polymarket offers few true low-risk, arbitrage opportunities. It is instead a high-risk environment where wins can create a false sense of mastery, leading to large losses. The platform is better viewed as a training ground for honing judgment through disciplined, framework-driven betting rather than a reliable income source. The tools help transform intuition into structured, rule-based decisions to mitigate the risk of catastrophic errors.

WeChat AI Card Hands-On Guide: Has the AI Shopping Era Arrived?

**"WeChat AI Card" Practical Test Guide: Has the Era of AI Shopping Arrived?** WeChat has officially launched the "AI Exclusive Card," a feature integrated into its Workbuddy AI assistant. This card is designed to handle payments for AI-initiated purchases. Our hands-on test reveals it's not yet a tool for fully autonomous AI shopping, but rather a controlled payment layer for AI agents. The AI Card functions as an isolated sub-wallet within WeChat Pay. Users must bind the card and transfer funds into it from their main wallet. Crucially, every transaction requires explicit user confirmation via smartphone scan; AI cannot spend autonomously. Currently accessible through the Workbuddy agent, the card targets specific digital consumption scenarios: purchasing paid content (reports, data), calling paid APIs/tools, and subscribing to services. Its design prioritizes security and control by separating funds and mandating approval for each payment. We tested a real-world scenario: ordering bubble tea via Workbuddy using a "Meituan Life Assistant" skill. The process encountered multiple hurdles: high "skill" usage costs (exceeding daily free credits), and most importantly, while a payment was successfully initiated, the AI purchased an incorrect product (a mismatched group-buy coupon instead of the desired drink). This highlights the current limitation: the **AI Card only solves the payment step**. The broader challenge lies in the **AI agent's execution chain**—accurately understanding intent, navigating third-party platforms, selecting the right product, and ensuring proper fulfillment. The payment succeeded, but the purchase failed to meet the user's need. In conclusion, the WeChat AI Exclusive Card is a cautious, early-step experiment in AI commerce. It provides a secure, user-controlled payment method for agent interactions but is not yet capable of reliable, end-to-end complex purchases. For now, it's best used for low-value, low-risk digital services with careful user verification at each step. The vision of AI handling complete shopping tasks remains a work in progress.
