特朗普家族正在通过一家名为 American Bitcoin 的新公司进军比特币 (BTC) 挖矿业务。 根据 3 月 31 日的新闻稿，埃里克·特朗普和小唐纳德·特朗普已与上市加密基础设施公司 Hut 8 合作，成立比特币挖矿公司 American Bitcoin。埃里克和小唐纳德·特朗普将拥有该公司 20% 的股份，而 Hut 8 将拥有剩余的 80%。 最初，该公司将专注于采矿业务。展望未来，特朗普提到了建立战略比特币储备的计划，并可能上市。 小唐纳德·特朗普说：“从一开始，我们就坚信比特币——无论是个人还是企业。”“但仅仅购买比特币只是故事的一半。利用有利的经济条件开采比特币将带来更大的机会。” 该项目是特朗普家族不断扩大的加密货币领域参与的一部分，其中还包括世界自由金融和潜在的稳定币等其他项目。 尽管人们担心比特币挖矿对环境的影响，但将担任该公司首席战略官的埃里克·特朗普 (Eric Trump) 表示，美国较低的能源成本将使美国矿工在全球范围内获得竞争优势。Hut 8 首席执行官阿舍·吉诺特 (Asher Genoot) 也指出，美国比特币的竞争优势将来自低能源成本和可扩展的基础设施。 你可能还喜欢：DeVere 首席执行官表示，稳定币和石油是特朗普的宏观武器 作为对 American Bitcoin 80% 股份的回报，Hut 8 将提供 61,000 台矿机，并在 11 个美国数据中心托管矿机。Hut 8 的股价在公告发布后上涨了 6.4%，但今年以来仍下跌了 42.8%。 Hut 8 首席执行官 Asher Genoot 对此次合作发表了评论： “通过将我们的挖矿业务拆分为一个独立实体，该实体将自行筹集资金，我们将业务的每个部分与其各自的资本成本保持一致。此次交易创造了两个专注但互补的业务，每个业务都是为其各自的任务而专门打造的。它使 Hut 8 朝着更可预测、更可融资、资本成本更低的细分市场发展，并将 American Bitcoin 打造为一个纯粹的挖矿平台，旨在实现 Exahash 增长、比特币生产和运营杠杆。” 你可能还喜欢：特朗普公司携手SAVVY MINING平台在美推广云挖矿产品

Solana is back in the spotlight as it reclaims the $180 mark for the first time since mid-February amid rising decentralized finance metrics. Thanks to a solid technical setup and growing interest in its DeFi ecosystem, the price has increased 6% over the last day and 22% over the last week. Solana’s (SOL) open interest has also risen by 11.08%, as per Coinglass data. This implies that there are more traders entering the market with new contracts, which usually indicates growing investor confidence. According to DeFiLlama data, Solana’s total value locked increased from $7.5 billion at the beginning of May to $9.6 billion at the time of writing. Leading the charge have been platforms like Marinade (up 56%), Jito (up 41%), and Raydium (up 78%). Additionally, weekly decentralized exchange volumes increased, rising from $18 billion the week before to $22 billion last week. Chain activity remains strong. Revenues and transaction fees on Solana have been steadily climbing for four weeks, nearing three-month highs. With 65% of SOL staked, a combination of the demand from DeFi usage and the limited supply could support price growth.  But not every metric is positive. Solana’s overall stablecoin market capitalization dropped by 8% to $11.7 billion in the past seven days. At 8%, the funding rate indicates that traders are paying more to hold long positions, which is a sign of bullish sentiment but also one that frequently precedes short-term corrections.

SOL is trading significantly above all of the major moving averages, with the 10, 20, 50, 100, and 200-day EMAs and SMAs all displaying “buy” signals. This confirms a strong upward trend. However, overbought conditions are indicated by the relative strength index, which is at 71. Solana price analysis. Credit: crypto.news The Bollinger Bands are widening, and SOL is now trading close to the upper band. This typically comes before a period of correction or consolidation and indicates high volatility. Immediate resistance lies near $185, the top of the current band. A breakout above this could open the path to $200.  On the downside, support is seen around $157 (20-day EMA) and $130, where the lower Bollinger band and previous consolidation zone align. Looking ahead, bullish momentum could continue if SOL breaks above $185 with volume. A rejection here, however, may trigger a pullback to support levels. While SOL remains 39% below its all-time high of $295, growing institutional interest, possible ETF approval, and upcoming upgrades like Firedancer suggest that the road to $200 seems more likely if market conditions hold.
