已經提交了一項比特幣法案，提議允許對比特幣進行投資並促進加密貨幣的使用

在3月18日的聲明中，介紹該法案的參議員傑里米·米勒（Jeremy Miller）表示，《明尼蘇達州比特幣法》（SF2661）旨在使該州的金融景觀現代化

A new Bitcoin bill has been tabled in the Minnesota state senate that proposes permitting investments in Bitcoin and fosters cryptocurrency use in specific domains.

明尼蘇達州參議院提出了一項新的比特幣法案，該法案提議允許對比特幣進行投資，並促進在特定領域的加密貨幣使用。

In a March 18 statement, Senator Jeremy Miller, who introduced the Minnesota Bitcoin Act (SF2661), said the legislation aims to modernize the state’s financial landscape and position Minnesota as a leader in digital assets.

在3月18日的聲明中，介紹了《明尼蘇達州比特幣法》（SF2661）的參議員傑里米·米勒（Jeremy Miller）表示，該立法旨在使該州的金融景觀和明尼蘇達州的職位現代化為數字資產領導者。

As part of the bill, the Minnesota State Board of Investment would be able to invest state funds in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, similar to how they invest in stocks, bonds, and other traditional assets.

作為該法案的一部分，明尼蘇達州投資委員會將能夠投資於比特幣和其他加密貨幣，類似於他們投資於股票，債券和其他傳統資產的方式。

State employees will also have the option to diversify their retirement plans with Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

州僱員還可以選擇將其退休計劃與比特幣和其他加密貨幣多樣化。

The legislation would also enable residents to pay state taxes and fees with Bitcoin, continuing the trend started by states like Colorado and Utah.

該立法還將使居民能夠向比特幣繳納州稅和費用，繼續由科羅拉多州和猶他州等州開始的趨勢。

Additionally, the bill includes tax incentives for cryptocurrency earnings, allowing certain gains from Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies to be subtracted from taxable income.

此外，該法案還包括加密貨幣收益的稅收優惠，從而使比特幣和其他加密貨幣的某些收益從應稅收入中減去。

“I believe global digital currencies are here to stay, and it’s inevitable that they become more and more mainstream,” Miller said in a statement.

米勒在一份聲明中說：“我相信全球數字貨幣將在這裡留下來，這是不可避免的，它們變得越來越主流。”

According to the senator, cryptocurrencies would benefit Minnesota by providing “new financial opportunities” and giving the state a “strategic position to take advantage of being on the forefront of this digital revolution.”

參議員說，加密貨幣將通過提供“新的財務機會”並賦予該州“戰略地位，以利用這一數字革命的最前沿”來使明尼蘇達州受益。

“Crypto is a versatile digital asset that can be used in multiple ways, including as investments, global currency, or a hedge against inflation,” he added.

他補充說：“加密是一種多功能的數字資產，可以通過多種方式使用，包括作為投資，全球貨幣或抵抗通貨膨脹的對沖。”

Minnesota joins over a dozen other U.S. states that are considering state cryptocurrency investments in 2023. Some states, like Arizona and Texas, are juggling several bills.

明尼蘇達州加入了其他十幾個正在考慮2023年州加密貨幣投資的美國州。某些州，例如亞利桑那州和德克薩斯州，正在挑戰幾項法案。

On March 11, Texas state lawmakers presented House Bill 4258, which allows Texas’ chief accountant and financial watchdog to invest up to $250 million of the state’s economic stabilization fund balance in Bitcoin or other kinds of crypto assets.

3月11日，德克薩斯州立法者提出了4258號法案，該法案允許德克薩斯州的首席會計師和金融監管機構以比特幣或其他類型的加密資產投資該州經濟穩定基金的2.5億美元。

The bill, which is now pending in the state legislature, would permit investments in cryptocurrencies despite the lack of clear guidance on how such investments would be made or the criteria used to select crypto assets for the state’s portfolio.

該法案現在正在州立法機關中審理，儘管缺乏有關如何進行此類投資或用於選擇該州投資組合的加密貨幣資產的標準，但該法案將允許對加密貨幣進行投資。

The legislation follows a previous attempt in 2022 to pass a bill that would have allowed the state to invest up to 1% of its treasury in Bitcoin, which ultimately failed to gain approval.

該立法是在2022年以前的一項法案之前，該法案將使該州在比特幣中投資多達1％的財政部，最終未能獲得批准。

Earlier this year, the investment arm of the University of Texas disclosed an investment of $1.5 billion in a newly launched cryptocurrency fund.

今年早些時候，德克薩斯大學的投資部門披露了新成立的加密貨幣基金的15億美元投資。
