JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon Said He'd 'Fire In A Second' Anyone Caught Trading Bitcoin When It Was At $4,000. 7 Years Later, The Investment Bank Holds Positions In Spot ETFs Tracking The Apex Crypto
Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JPMorgan Chase & Co (NYSE:JPM), is known for his no-holds-barred attacks on Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC), despite the banking giant's investments in exchange-traded funds tied to the leading cryptocurrency.
摩根大通(紐約證券交易所代碼:JPM)首席執行官傑米·戴蒙以對比特幣(加密貨幣:BTC)的無拘無束的攻擊而聞名,儘管這家銀行業巨頭投資了與領先的加密貨幣相關的交易所交易基金。
What happened: Speaking at an investor conference almost exactly seven years ago, Dimon dubbed Bitcoin as "fraud" and "worse than tulip bulbs," in reference to the Dutch tulip mania in the 17th century.
發生了什麼:戴蒙在將近整七年前的一次投資者會議上發表講話,指的是17世紀荷蘭的鬱金香狂熱,將比特幣稱爲 「欺詐」 和 「比鬱金香球泡還要糟糕」。
The remark that gained the most notoriety was when he said he would "fire in a second" any JPMorgan trader caught trading in Bitcoin.
最臭名昭著的言論是他說他將 「在一秒鐘內解僱」 任何被抓到比特幣交易的摩根大通交易員。
When Dimon made these remarks, one Bitcoin was priced at $4,161.27. Today, the coin's price has ballooned to $57,926, indicating a massive 1,292% increase.
當戴蒙發表這些言論時,一枚比特幣的價格爲4,161.27美元。今天,該代幣的價格已飆升至57,926美元,表明大幅上漲了1,292%。

Why It Matters: Dimon's criticism of Bitcoin has continued unabated, and he went so far as to ask for a shutdown of the industry during a Congressional testimony in December last year.
爲何重要:戴蒙對比特幣的批評有增無減,在去年12月的國會作證中,他甚至要求關閉該行業。
However, his stance remarkably softened just a month later when the first-ever Bitcoin ETFs saw the light of day. Dimon said, "I defend your right to do Bitcoin."
但是,僅僅一個月後,當有史以來第一隻比特幣ETF問世時,他的立場明顯軟化了。戴蒙說:「我捍衛你做比特幣的權利。」
According to the recent filing with the SEC, JPMorgan reported holding $42,000 worth of shares of Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (NYSE:GBTC). It also liquidated its entire portfolio in the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (NASDAQ:IBIT) which was acquired in the first quarter.
根據最近向美國證券交易委員會提交的文件,摩根大通報告持有Grayscale比特幣信託基金(紐約證券交易所代碼:GBTC)價值42,000美元的股票。它還清算了第一季度收購的iShares比特幣信託ETF(納斯達克股票代碼:IBIT)中的全部投資組合。
Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $57,947.66, up 2.50% in the last 24 hours, according to data from Benzinga Pro. Shares of JPMorgan closed 0.78% higher at $207.17 during Thursday's regular trading session.
價格走勢:根據Benzinga Pro的數據,在撰寫本文時,比特幣的交易價格爲57,947.66美元,在過去24小時內上漲了2.50%。摩根大通股價在週四的常規交易時段收盤上漲0.78%,至207.17美元。
