this?</p><p><blockquote>观察家们问的一个大问题是，埃隆·马斯克经营的公司为什么要这样做？</blockquote></p><p> Monday, electric-car maker&nbsp;Tesla&nbsp;said in&nbsp;a&nbsp;public filing&nbsp;that it purchased $1.5 billion of bitcoin&nbsp;and that it expects to begin accepting payment in the cryptocurrency for its products in the future.</p><p><blockquote>周一，电动汽车制造商特斯拉在一份公开文件中表示，它购买了15亿美元的比特币，并预计未来将开始接受其产品的加密货币支付。</blockquote></p><p> The move by Tesla to invest in bitcoins was seen as further confirmation of the legitimacy of the nascent asset that didn’t exist until about 12 years ago.</p><p><blockquote>特斯拉投资比特币的举动被视为进一步证实了这种新兴资产的合法性，这种资产直到大约12年前才存在。</blockquote></p><p> However, bitcoin is seen as a volatile asset that is prone to sharp price volatility and Monday’s announcement by Tesla was described by some&nbsp;corporate finance professionals&nbsp;as an unnecessary addition of risk to the vehicle maker’s balance sheet in the form of currency or a commodity, depending on how you classify bitcoin.</p><p><blockquote>然而，比特币被视为一种波动性资产，容易出现价格剧烈波动，一些企业财务专业人士将特斯拉周一的声明描述为以货币或商品形式给汽车制造商的资产负债表增加了不必要的风险，取决于您如何对比特币进行分类。</blockquote></p><p> While it’s not clear, at this point, why Musk &amp; Co. have opted to expose the company to the possible risk of owning bitcoin, here are a few reasons why the revolutionary company may have aligned itself with the crypto crowd.</p><p><blockquote>虽然目前尚不清楚为什么Musk&amp;Co.选择让该公司面临拥有比特币的可能风险，但以下是这家革命性公司可能与加密货币人群结盟的一些原因。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Diversification</b></p><p><blockquote><b>多元化</b></blockquote></p><p> Tesla made it clear in its statement filed with its regulator the Securities and Exchange Commission that it sees bitcoin as a chance to diversify its cash and cash-equivalent holdings.</p><p><blockquote>特斯拉在向其监管机构美国证券交易委员会提交的声明中明确表示，它将比特币视为实现现金和现金等价物持有多元化的机会。</blockquote></p><p> Corporations usually hold excess cash and/or cash-equivalents, like Treasury bills or commercial paper on their books to provide operational liquidity and generate returns while limiting risks.</p><p><blockquote>公司通常持有多余的现金和/或现金等价物，如国库券或商业票据，以提供运营流动性并在限制风险的同时产生回报。</blockquote></p><p> Tesla wrote, “we updated our investment policy to provide us with more flexibility to further diversify and maximize returns on our cash that is not required to maintain adequate operating liquidity.”</p><p><blockquote>特斯拉写道，“我们更新了投资政策，为我们提供了更大的灵活性，以进一步实现现金回报的多元化和最大化，而这并不是维持充足运营流动性所必需的。”</blockquote></p><p> The move isn’t without risk, Tesla acknowledges as the price of bitcoin could slump.</p><p><blockquote>特斯拉承认，此举并非没有风险，因为比特币的价格可能会暴跌。</blockquote></p><p> “If we hold digital assets and their values decrease relative to our purchase prices, our financial condition may be harmed,” the company acknowledges.</p><p><blockquote>该公司承认：“如果我们持有数字资产，其价值相对于我们的购买价格下降，我们的财务状况可能会受到损害。”</blockquote></p><p> But a single bitcoin, which has soared 62% so far this year, could easily be headed for a six-digit value if bullish momentum continues to build, which would make Musk look smart.</p><p><blockquote>但今年迄今已飙升62%的单一比特币，如果看涨势头继续增强，很容易达到六位数的价值，这将使马斯克看起来很聪明。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Publicity stunt?</b></p><p><blockquote><b>宣传噱头？</b></blockquote></p><p> “Thankfully, Elon Musk on Monday once again ensured no one would be bored, with the unexpected announcement that Tesla will buy&nbsp;bitcoin&nbsp;and accept them as payment for vehicles,” writes Craig Erlam, senior market analyst at Oanda, in a Tuesday research note.</p><p><blockquote>Oanda高级市场分析师Craig Erlam在周二的一份研究报告中写道：“值得庆幸的是，Elon Musk周一再次确保没有人会感到无聊，他出人意料地宣布特斯拉将收购比特币并接受它们作为车辆付款。”</blockquote></p><p> The analyst referred to the move as a “publicity stunt,” a move that everbody is talking about, but there are a number of ways to think about it.</p><p><blockquote>这位分析师将此举称为“宣传噱头”，每个人都在谈论这一举措，但有多种思考方式。</blockquote></p><p> <b>Brand management</b></p><p><blockquote><b>品牌管理</b></blockquote></p><p>
