This is like a very mini version of the 2000 and eight financial crisis when you had money market funds with hugely over leveraged things, they said were dollars.

這就像2000年和8年金融危機的一個非常迷你的版本，當時你有貨幣市場基金，有巨大的過度槓桿的東西，他們說是美元。

但我們真的是在押注房價，本質上是一個龐氏騙局，那麼你所描述的方式，它確實是在早期投資者只能用後來的投資者的美元來支付，當你談論實際的美元時。

Um if I would I wouldn't call it a Ponzi because that would be ascribing intent but it works the same way I mean and and we all know I mean the most famous one is Bitcoin but but it's a crowded market of cryptocurrencies.

嗯，如果我會，我不會稱它為龐氏騙局，因為這將是歸因於意圖，但它的工作方式是一樣的，我的意思是，我們都知道，我的意思是最著名的是比特幣，但這是一個擁擠的加密貨幣市場。

You just make it up one day say it's got a price tag and say it's worth a dollar and then you've got countries like Venezuela El Salvador very much trading in Bitcoin as one of their main currencies when you see a crash like this.

你只是在某一天編造它，說它有一個價格標籤，說它值一美元，然後你有像委內瑞拉薩爾瓦多這樣的國家非常多地以比特幣作為他們的主要貨幣之一進行交易，當你看到這樣的崩潰。

我的意思是這對他們來說有多大的破壞性？

Well, Bitcoin in El Salvador has been a disastrous failure essentially $200 million dollars that they couldn't spare has gone up in smoke.

好吧，薩爾瓦多的比特幣已經是一個災難性的失敗，基本上2億美元的資金已經化為烏有，他們無法抽出。

It's quite bad and the country is now in a lot of trouble.

情況相當糟糕，這個國家現在有很多麻煩。

They use the dollar as their currency so they can't just print more currency.

他們必須支付所有的賬單，每年都要平衡他們的預算。

It's a real problem for them because the international markets are calling and they want their bonds paid.

這對他們來說是一個真正的問題，因為國際市場在召喚，他們希望他們的債券得到支付。

So do you now have a situation where sure a lot of wealthy people made a lot of money but then you also have this gap with ordinary people essentially trying to get rich quick and now you have a situation where this is crashing and the risk is very much being exposed.

是以，你現在是否有這樣一種情況：當然有很多富人賺了很多錢，但你也有這種差距，普通人基本上都想快速致富，現在你有一種情況，這正在崩潰，風險非常暴露。

Very much so now you can totally make money in crypto but It's a zero sum trading environment, it's very rough, very unregulated.

非常多，所以現在你完全可以在加密貨幣中賺錢，但這是一個零和交易環境，它非常粗糙，非常不受監管。

You may lose your shirt and no one can make money in crypto unless the money comes from someone who lost it.

你可能會失去你的襯衫，沒有人可以在加密貨幣中賺錢，除非這些錢來自於失去它的人。

So it tends to go to the big guys from the moms, the dads, the grannies, the young people who are desperate and looking for a way out of their situation.

是以，它傾向於從媽媽、爸爸、奶奶、那些絕望並尋找出路的年輕人那裡得到大人物。

There needs to be more investor protection on this stuff and that's the point that I wanted to just pick on the fact that there is really no government regulation, depending on which country.

在這個東西上需要有更多的投資者保護，這就是我想只是挑出一個事實，即真的沒有政府監管，取決於哪個國家。

There's a few regulated exchanges that are well behaved, but the vast majority of crypto trading happens in unregulated offshore casinos, where there is literally no rules except what they can get away with and not lose customers sometimes, but sometimes they're not.

有幾個受監管的交易所表現良好，但絕大多數的加密貨幣交易發生在不受監管的海外賭場，那裡簡直沒有任何規則，除了他們可以逃脫和不失去客戶有時，但有時他們沒有。

So here we are in this vicious, vicious sort of financial year for financial markets.

是以，我們現在處於金融市場的這種惡性、惡性的財政年度。

And it's, would you say, being particularly devastating in the crypto world, it's basically when the stock exchange sneezes, crypto catches a cold, so crypto doesn't influence the stock markets, but the stock market has influenced crypto.

而它，你說，在加密貨幣世界中被特別破壞，基本上是當證券交易所打噴嚏時，加密貨幣就會感冒，所以加密貨幣不影響股市，但股市卻影響了加密貨幣。

So when the NASDAQ went down a week before us t went down, Bitcoin lost about 10%, that sort of thing.

是以，當納斯達克指數在我們下跌前一週下跌時，比特幣損失了大約10%，諸如此類的事情。

 David, thank you so much for helping me and our audiences better understand that world. 

大衛，非常感謝你幫助我和我們的聽眾更好地瞭解這個世界。
