Bitcoin as the Financial Shield of the State of Ohio

比特幣作為俄亥俄州的金融盾牌

On Tuesday, Derek Merrin, a Republican representative from Ohio, a Midwestern state in the United States, presented the bill HB 703, dubbed the Ohio Bitcoin Reserve Act. This project aims to integrate bitcoin into the state's economic strategy, particularly in the management of its financial reserves.

週二，來自美國中西部俄亥俄州的共和黨眾議員德里克·梅林 (Derek Merrin) 提出了 HB 703 法案，被稱為《俄亥俄州比特幣儲備法案》。該項目旨在將比特幣納入國家經濟戰略，特別是金融儲備的管理。

Convinced that bitcoin is a strategic alternative to the devaluation of the US dollar, Merrin proposes the creation of a Bitcoin reserve fund within the State Treasury. This fund would allow the treasurer of Ohio to invest a portion of the state's temporary funds into bitcoins.

梅林堅信比特幣是美元貶值的策略替代方案，因此建議在國庫內設立比特幣儲備基金。該基金將允許俄亥俄州財政部長將該州臨時資金的一部分投資於比特幣。

The objective is clear: to protect public finances against monetary erosion while positioning Ohio at the forefront of financial innovation.

目標很明確：保護公共財政免受貨幣侵蝕，同時將俄亥俄州置於金融創新的前沿。

For Merrin, bitcoin represents an essential solution: “As the US dollar loses value, bitcoin offers a way to diversify our state’s portfolio and safeguard public funds against depreciation.”

對於梅林來說，比特幣代表了一個重要的解決方案：“隨著美元貶值，比特幣提供了一種使我們國家的投資組合多樣化並保護公共資金免受貶值的方法。”

A Broader Political Movement

更廣泛的政治運動

This project is not an exception and fits into a growing trend nationwide. Several US states, such as Texas and Pennsylvania, are also considering establishing bitcoin reserves. Moreover, the possibility of a national BTC reserve under a Trump administration gives this movement a geopolitical scope.

該項目也不例外，符合全國不斷增長的趨勢。德克薩斯州和賓夕法尼亞州等美國幾個州也在考慮建立比特幣儲備。此外，川普政府領導下的國家比特幣儲備的可能性為這項運動帶來了地緣政治範圍。

The current context is particularly conducive. Bitcoin recorded a spectacular increase of 155 % in one year, reaching historic highs. The reelection of Donald Trump, known for his support of cryptos, has reinforced this positive momentum.

目前的環境特別有利。比特幣一年內漲幅高達 155%，達到歷史新高。以支持加密貨幣而聞名的唐納德·川普的連任強化了這種積極勢頭。

The lawmaker also cites Senator Cynthia Lummis’s initiative, which proposes that the United States acquire 1 million bitcoins over five years, thereby enhancing the credibility of this approach at the national level.

這位立法者還引用了參議員 Cynthia Lummis 的倡議，該倡議建議美國在五年內購買 100 萬枚比特幣，從而提高這一做法在國家層面的可信度。

With this initiative, Ohio is positioning itself as a potential pioneer in integrating bitcoin as a state reserve asset. This bill could usher in a new era where cryptos are no longer seen merely as speculative assets, but as strategic tools for managing public finances.

透過這項舉措，俄亥俄州將自己定位為將比特幣納入國家儲備資產的潛在先驅。該法案可能開創一個新時代，加密貨幣不再只是被視為投機資產，而是管理公共財政的策略工具。
