苏瓦什里·戈什报道：埃里克·特朗普表示，对人工智能的大规模投资——这一曾导致加密货币价格下跌的因素之一——最终将成为推动数字资产增长最快的动力。
Trump said the huge investment in artificial intelligence, which has been one of the factors depressing cryptocurrency prices, will ultimately be the fastest driver of digital-asset growth.
“实际上，人工智能行业将是以最快速度推动数字资产增长的力量，”特朗普家族加密货币项目的联合创始人埃里克在周三于新加坡举行的Token2049大会上表示。“我们政敌阵营中从事人工智能领域的同行们，离他们的目标越近，这个行业的发展前景就越好。”他举例说，如果让一个AI代理预订假期，它将会使用加密货币钱包而非法币进行交易。“人们越快接受人工智能和技术，以及这些技术越快融入日常生活，这个行业的发展速度就会越快。”
“The thing that’s going to spawn the growth of digital assets by far the quickest is actually the AI trade,” Eric, a co-founder in the Trump family crypto venture, said at the Token2049 conference in Singapore on Wednesday. “The faster our kind of friends on the other side of the aisle in AI can sprint toward their goal, the better this industry is going to do.”He gave the example of asking an AI agent to book a holiday, saying it would use a crypto wallet to make the transaction rather than fiat currency. “The faster people embrace AI and technology, and the faster that gets integrated into people’s life, the faster this industry is going to grow,” he said.
去年10月，比特币价格曾创下12.6万美元的历史高点，但此后一度下跌。部分原因被归因于投资者为购买人工智能股票而抛售加密货币。特朗普表示，近期比特币价格回升至8万美元以上表明，“现在资金正在重新流入加密货币市场”。
Bitcoin’s drop from a record high of $126,000 in October last year has in part been attributed to investors selling crypto to buy AI stocks. The original cryptocurrency’s recent rally back above $80,000 shows that “now it’s cycling back out, and it’s going back into crypto,” Trump said.
“我们已经看到这一点，也看到价格正在上涨，”他说，“但资金将在两者之间持续循环流动。”
“We’re seeing that, we’re seeing prices go up” but “you’re going to see money continuously cycle between the two,” he said.
这位美国总统次长子是世界自由金融公司（World Liberty Financial）的联合创始人，该公司是其家族的加密货币项目，其旗舰稳定币为USD1。
The US President’s second-oldest son is a co-founder of World Liberty Financial, his family’s cryptocurrency venture whose flagship stablecoin is USD1.
埃里克·特朗普表示，以美元为背书的稳定币的增长可能有助于提升对美国政府债务的需求。
Eric Trump said the growth of dollar-backed stablecoins could help to bolster demand for US government debt.
在这场全球规模最大的加密货币会议之一上，特朗普还在小组讨论中宣传了代币化的“慈善”价值。
Trump also used the panel at what is one of the world’s largest crypto conferences to tout the “philanthropic” benefits of tokenization.
他表示，将豪华房地产、艺术品和音乐收入置于区块链上，可以让传统上仅限富裕投资者接触到的资产向更广泛的大众开放。这一观点与该行业长期以来所倡导的“将现实世界资产上链”所带来的益处相呼应。
Putting luxury real estate, art and music revenues on blockchains could open assets traditionally reserved for wealthy investors to a broader public, he said, echoing a sentiment that the industry has long promoted as a benefit of putting real-world assets on blockchains.
“从让人们有机会投资自己相信的事物这一角度来看，这是一种慈善行为，因为如果没有这个机会，他们永远无法进行这样的投资，”他说。
“It’s philanthropic in terms of giving people an opportunity to invest in things that they believe in that they could have never otherwise had the opportunity to invest in,” he said.
在整个演讲中，他借机再次表达了自己对银行的厌恶——这也是他在加密货币活动中经常提及的主题。他表示，银行过去曾竭尽所能阻止数字资产的发展，但现在却争先恐后地想要采用它们。
Throughout the talk, he took the opportunity to restate his distaste for banks — a theme he has frequently returned to at crypto events — saying they had done everything they could to prevent the growth of digital assets but were now racing to adopt them.
“我们在这里的每个人都战胜了那些大银行，因为你几乎每天都能看到又有一家银行开始接受加密货币，”特朗普说。“这是因为人们敢于挑战巨大的阻力。说实话，我认为今天我们可以共同宣布胜利了。”
“All of us in here beat the big banks because every single day you see another one” embracing cryptocurrency, Trump said. “It’s because people dared to push back against major headwinds. And honestly, I think today we could all declare victory.”
