Trump's Bitcoin Strategy Comes Under Fire By Peter Schiff: If Ex-President Intended To Start A Strategic Reserve 'He'd Have Kept His Intention A Secret'
Well-known economist Peter Schiff questioned the real intentions behind former President Donald Trump's strategy of holding onto Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC)
著名经济学家彼得·希夫质疑了前总统特朗普持有比特币（加密货币：BTC）的策略背后的真实意图。
What Happened: On Monday, Schiff took to X to voice his doubts about Trump's plan to use seized Bitcoin to start a strategic U.S. reserve. He cast aspersions that if Trump truly intended to implement this strategy, he would have kept it under wraps until he was back in office.
发生了什么：周一，希夫在社交媒体上发表言论，对特朗普使用收缴的比特币开启美国战略储备计划的计划表示怀疑。他对此提出了质疑，认为如果特朗普真正打算实施这个策略，他应该将其保密直到重新入主白宫。
"Now that the Biden administration is wise to his plan, they'll make sure to sell every Satoshi before Trump takes office," the Bitcoin skeptic remarked.
这位比特币怀疑论者表示：“现在拜登政府已经了解了他的计划，他们会确保在特朗普上台之前把所有的Satoshi都卖出去。”
If #Trump really intended to use seized #Bitcoin to start a U.S. "strategic" reserve, he'd have kept his intention a secret until he was actually in office. Now that the #Biden administration is wise to his plan, they'll make sure to sell every Satoshi before Trump takes office.

如果特朗普真的打算使用没收的比特币启动一项美国“战略”储备，他将把自己的计划保密，直到他真正就职为止。现在拜登政府明白了他的计划，他们将确保在特朗普上任之前卖掉每一分钱的比特币。
“彼得·希夫警告说，美国国债已经超过了34万亿美元，今年年底之前将会迎来危机，分析师则对社会计划提出警报。”
For the curious, Schiff's comments come after the U.S. government transferred $2 billion worth of Bitcoin this afternoon, spurring fears of an imminent dump.
对于好奇的人来说，希夫的评论是在美国政府今天下午转移了20亿美元的比特币之后发表的，这引发了即将出现抛售的担忧。

Why It Matters: Trump, during his keynote speech at a Bitcoin conference, advocated for a strategic national Bitcoin stockpile. He assured that if he were to return to the presidency, the U.S. government would retain its Bitcoin holdings.
为什么它很重要：特朗普在一次比特币会议上的主旨演讲中提倡建立一个国家比特币储备，他保证，如果他重新当选总统，美国政府将保留其比特币持仓。
While this strategy has been applauded by cryptocurrency enthusiasts, Peter Schiff was sharply critical. He questioned the point of owning Bitcoin if no one ever sells it, comparing it to living in poverty while dying and holding a large amount of the cryptocurrency.
尽管这一策略受到了加密货币爱好者的赞扬，但彼得·希夫对此进行了尖锐的批评。他质疑如果没有人卖出比特币，持有比特币有何意义，将其比作贫穷而死亡并持有大量加密货币。
Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading at $69,511.63, sinking 3.21% in the last 24 hours, according to data from Benzinga Pro.
价格走势：截至撰写本文时，比特币按照Benzinga Pro的数据，交易价格为69511.63美元，过去24小时下跌了3.21%。
