副总统哈里斯正努力促进民主党的内部团结,但加密货币的争论却在背后威胁着这种良好的氛围。

民主党内部的不同派别希望哈里斯在加密货币政策上采取他们的立场。由于加密货币行业在今年选举中投入的大量资金,这个问题变得格外重要。

支持加密货币的民主党人正在游说哈里斯,希望她对数字资产公司采取更友好的态度,而当下这些公司正面临拜登政府监管机构的严格执法行动。他们认为,民主党应该尝试包容接受这项技术,而不是让前总统特朗普占据这个议题。特朗普正在吸引加密货币爱好者,并从几个富有的行业领袖那里获得竞选资金。


这种推动可能会疏远像马萨诸塞州参议员伊丽莎白·沃伦(Elizabeth Warren)这样的著名怀疑论者。她们认为加密货币对消费者、金融系统和打击洗钱构成重大风险,并且采取更温和的态度也将与拜登的政策背道而驰。

“如果她在执行我们的所得税法、制裁法和打击人口贩卖法的问题上听取意见,她将继续得出拜登执政期间所做的结论,”加利福尼亚州民主党众议员布拉德·舍尔曼(Brad Sherman)说,他正敦促哈里斯保持现有的强硬立场。

据三位直接知情人士透露,哈里斯尚未在数字资产政策上表态,但她的团队最近几周与加密货币代表有过接触。一些支持加密货币的国会山民主党人希望可以更进一步,比如设立一个可以与哈里斯团队直接交流的加密货币圆桌会议。

“利用这个机会重新建立与更广泛社区和行业的关系非常重要,”北卡罗来纳州众议员威利·尼克尔(Wiley Nickel)说,他是支持加密货币的民主党人之一。

此时,加密货币行业正计划花费超过1.6亿美元来影响今年的选举。加密货币公司高管和投资者的目标是选举出支持该行业的盟友,以推动友好政策,并防止加密货币的反对者上台。他们认为,虽然数千万的人关心这个问题,但还不清楚这对选民的实际影响有多大。联邦储备委员会在5月表示,去年只有7%的成年人持有或使用加密货币,比2021年下降了5个百分点。

随着哈里斯准备参与辩论,包括参议院多数党领袖查克·舒默和前众议院议长南希·佩洛西在内的一些知名民主党人最近几周表示支持加密货币行业。今年5月,两人都投票支持数字资产公司要求的立法。舒默在本月早些时候的一次采访中表示,他希望参议院可以通过更多的加密货币政策。

“舒默的开放态度表明他对加密货币现状的不满,”长期倡导该行业的纽约民主党众议员里奇·托雷斯说。

上周六,Torres和其他13名众议院民主党人致信民主党全国委员会主席,要求民主党采取支持加密货币的政策,他们称拜登退出竞选是民主党的新机会。

“如果我们的做法与乔·拜登相同,我也没什么可说的了,”尼克尔在接受采访时说,他也是该信的签署者之一。“我们不会谈论会议内容,我们不会谈论公共政策问题。所以我认为我们看到的初步迹象是好的,我们将在接下来的几周内看到更多进展。”

参议院农业委员会主席、民主党人黛比·斯塔贝诺(Debbie Stabenow)正在努力通过一项重塑加密货币监管的法案。她的法案面临加密货币反对者者包括沃伦的抵制,后者表示该法案不足以打击加密货币犯罪。

“哈里斯知道我们在做什么,而且她对看到的结果非常感兴趣,”斯塔贝诺谈到哈里斯时说。“哈里斯是中立的,我们需要向竞选团队解释为什么这是急需解决的问题去说服她,”创新加密委员会首席执行官希拉·沃伦说。“并不是每一个民主党人都像沃伦一样反对加密货币。”

与此同时,哈里斯正在招募拜登财政部副部长布莱恩·尼尔森,他在政府打击涉及数字资产的金融犯罪方面发挥了重要作用。

“有人能让我们的领导人意识到国家反洗钱规则中的漏洞总归是好事,”伊丽莎白·沃伦在一次采访中说。"我不认为哈里斯的政策会支持恐怖分子和勒索软件骗子。

Polymarket's "2028 Presidential Election" Volume King Is... LeBron James???

An article from Odaily Planet Daily, authored by Azuma, discusses a peculiar phenomenon observed on the prediction market platform Polymarket regarding the "2028 US Presidential Election" event. Despite having a real-time probability of less than 1%, unlikely candidates such as NBA star LeBron James (with $48.41 million in trading volume), celebrity Kim Kardashian ($33.84 million), and even ineligible figures like Elon Musk ($23.14 million) and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani ($18.39 million) account for approximately 70% of the total trading volume. In contrast, high-probability candidates like Vice President JD Vance ($10.58 million), California Governor Gavin Newsom ($15.71 million), and Secretary of State Marco Rubio ($9.32 million) have significantly lower trading activity. The article explains that this counterintuitive trend is not driven by irrational speculation but by rational strategies. Polymarket offers a 4% annualized holding reward for certain markets, including the 2028 election, to maintain long-term pricing accuracy. This yield exceeds the current 5-year US Treasury rate (3.98%), attracting large investors ("whales") to hold "NO" shares on low-probability candidates for risk-free returns. Additionally, some users utilize a platform feature that allows converting a set of "NO" shares into corresponding "YES" shares for better liquidity or pricing efficiency, rather than directly buying "YES" shares for their preferred candidates. Thus, the seemingly absurd trading activity is strategically motivated.

Dialogue with ViaBTC CEO Yang Haipo: Is the Essence of Blockchain a Libertarian Experiment?

"ViaBTC CEO Yang Haipo: Blockchain as a Hardcore Libertarian Experiment" In a deep-dive interview, ViaBTC CEO Yang Haipo reframes the essence of blockchain, arguing it is not merely a new technology or infrastructure but a hardcore libertarian experiment. This experiment, born from the 2008 financial crisis and decades of cypherpunk ideology, tests a fundamental question: to what extent can freedom and self-organization exist without centralized trust? The discussion highlights the experiment's verified outcomes. On one hand, it has proven its core value of censorship resistance, providing critical financial lifelines for entities like WikiLeaks and individuals in hyperinflationary or sanctioned countries via tools like stablecoins. However, Yang points out a key paradox: the most successful product, USDT, is itself a centralized compromise, showing users prioritize a less-controlled pipeline over pure decentralization. On the other hand, the experiment has exposed the severe costs of this freedom—a "dark forest" without safeguards. Events like the collapses of LUNA, Celsius, and FTX, resulting in massive wealth destruction and prison sentences for founders, underscore the system's fragility and the inherent risks of an unregulated environment. Yang observes that despite decentralized protocols, human nature inevitably recreates centralized power structures, speculative frenzies, and narrative-driven cycles (from ICOs to Meme coins), where emotion and belonging often trump technological substance. Looking forward, he believes blockchain's future is significant but niche. Its real value lies in serving specific, real-world needs for financial sovereignty and bypassing traditional controls, not as a universal infrastructure replacing all centralized systems. For the average participant, Yang's crucial advice is to cultivate independent judgment. True freedom is not holding a crypto wallet, but possessing a mind resilient to groupthink and narrative hype in a high-risk, often irrational market.
