Why are politicians and sanctioned states embracing crypto?

虽然比特币自 2025 年 10 月达到峰值以来市值已损失超过一半，但全球加密货币市场的总规模依然维持在 2.23 万亿美元以上 [1]。该资产类别正从单纯的投资工具扩展至政治和地缘战略层面，吸引了传统银行、政客以及受制裁国家的关注与介入 [1]。随着加密货币日益主流化，其作为绕过传统金融体系工具的属性引发了外界对监管滞后性的担忧 [1]。

Despite a halving in market capitalization since its October 2025 peak for Bitcoin [1], the global cryptocurrency market remains valued at over $2.23 trillion [1]. This asset class is expanding beyond investment into political and geopolitical spheres, with traditional banks, politicians, and sanctioned states increasingly entering the space [1]. As cryptocurrencies become more mainstream, their role as a tool to bypass established financial systems has raised concerns regarding regulatory lagging behind market developments [1].
