Enron is back, and it looks like it could be . . . a crypto-ish thing, maybe, from the founders of Birds Aren’t Real.
安然(Enron)回来了，看起来可能是……一种类似加密货币的东西，也许是来自“鸟类不存在”(Birds Aren’t Real)创始人的作品。
At the very least, Enron.com came back online today, with a funny commercial full of corporate buzzwords and some pricey merch. (You can find slightly less expensive finance merch here by the way!)
至少，安然的网站今天重新上线了，带着一个充满企业流行语的有趣广告和一些价格不菲的商品。（顺便说一下，你可以在这里找到稍微便宜一些的金融商品！）
The Enron trademark was bought in 2020 by the guys who founded Birds Aren’t Real (through their firm The College Company LLC). For UK readers who might not be familiar, Birds Aren’t Real is a fake conspiracy theory — basically an extended bit — that has the rare qualities of 1) being very clever and 2) not requiring its founders to immolate their own reputations for the sake of attention.
安然商标于2020年被创立“鸟类不存在”的人（通过他们的公司The College Company LLC）购买。对于可能不熟悉的英国读者来说，“鸟类不存在”是一个虚构的阴谋论——基本上是一个延伸的玩笑——它具有罕见的特点：1）非常聪明，2）不需要其创始人为吸引注意而牺牲自己的声誉。
Anyway, Connor Gaydos, the Birds Aren’t Real cofounder, went ahead and incorporated Enron Corp in Delaware in February 2024. Now Enron.com features a countdown and a Decentralisation link at the bottom of the page:
无论如何，鸟类不存在的联合创始人康纳•盖多斯(Connor Gaydos)于2024年2月在特拉华注册了安然公司(Enron Corp)。现在，安然.com网站底部有一个倒计时和一个去中心化的链接：
True innovation doesn’t ask for permission. Decentralized technology is advancing, and we will of course have a role to play in its future. We couldn’t be more excited to show you, but until then please stay vigilant and avoid falling for scams. When we announce something, you’ll know.
真正的创新不需要许可。去中心化技术正在不断进步，我们当然会在其未来中发挥作用。我们非常期待向您展示，但在此之前，请保持警惕，避免上当受骗。当我们有公告时，您会知道的。
Are the Birds Aren’t Real guys launching a shitcoin?! If so, it looks like they’re asking fellow social-media users to please not respond to any random DMs asking for money.
“鸟类不存在”团队要推出一种劣质币吗？！如果是这样，他们似乎在请求社交媒体用户不要回复任何随机的私信索要钱财。
We haven’t been able to learn what’s at the end of the countdown just yet, besides, uh . . . next Tuesday. But a press rep says that they’ll have a “big announcement in the energy space,” which regular readers will know has something to do with cryptocurrency.
我们还无法得知倒计时结束时会发生什么，除了，呃……下周二。不过，一位新闻发言人表示，他们将在“能源领域”发布一个“大公告”，常读者会知道这与加密货币有关。
