Earlier this week, former President Donald Trump announced Vance as his running mate, a known pro-cryptocurrency advocate. Vance holds a significant amount of Bitcoin and has been actively promoting legislation favorable to the cryptocurrency industry.
本週早些時候，前總統唐納德·特朗普宣佈範斯爲自己的競選搭檔，範斯是一位已知的數字貨幣支持者。範斯持有大量比特幣，並積極推動有利於數字貨幣行業的立法。
Why It Matters: The selection of Vance as a vice-presidential candidate has stirred the industry. Todd Gordon, founder of Inside Edge Capital, has even predicted that Bitcoin could surpass the $100,000 mark this year, citing the pro-cryptocurrency stance of the potential Trump-Vance presidential ticket as a contributing factor.
爲什麼重要：範斯作爲副總統候選人的選擇引起了行業的轟動。Inside Edge Capital創始人託德·戈登甚至預測，由於潛在的特朗普-範斯總統候選人支持數字貨幣，比特幣可能會在今年超過10萬美元的大關。
Support for Donald Trump and candidates seen as supportive of cryptocurrencies has risen from people within the industry. Winklevoss twins, the co-founders of cryptocurrency exchange Gemini, donated $1 million in Bitcoin to support John Deaton's political campaign against Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.). Last month, the brothers donated $2 million in Bitcoin to Trump's 2024 election campaign.
行業內人士對特朗普和支持數字貨幣的候選人的支持已經上升。加密貨幣交易所Gemini的聯合創始人溫克萊沃斯兄弟向支持約翰·迪頓（John Deaton）對抗伊麗莎白·禾倫（Elizabeth Warren）參議員（D-Mass.）的競選活動捐贈了100萬美元的比特幣。上個月，兩兄弟向特朗普2024年的選舉活動捐贈了200萬美元的比特幣。
However, not everyone is in agreement. Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) co-founder, Vitalik Buterin, raised objections to choosing political allegiances based solely on a candidate's pro-cryptocurrency stance.
然而，並非所有人都同意。以太坊（CRYPTO:ETH）的聯合創始人維塔利克·布特林提出了反對意見，認爲僅僅因爲候選人支持數字貨幣就選擇政治盟友不可取。
Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $63,484.20, down 1.88% in the last 24 hours, according to data from Benzinga Pro.
價格走勢：截至撰寫本文時，比特幣按63484.20美元交易，過去24小時下跌了1.88％，根據Benzinga Pro的數據。
