比特幣幫助國家經濟再次強勁

2024 年 7 月底，美國懷俄明州參議員辛西婭·盧米斯 (Cynthia Lummis) 發出了建立比特幣戰略儲備的意識形態呼籲。

The latest presidential election was centered around the need to restore hope in our economy. An economy battered by inflation and many uncertainties needs safeguarding and revitalization from the government and its policymakers.

最近的總統選舉的核心是需要恢復我們經濟的希望。受到通貨膨脹和許多不確定性打擊的經濟需要政府及其政策制定者的保護和振興。

But how would the state safeguard its economy if its reserves become weak? There is hardly any doubt that inflation, over the past couple of years, has made significant dents in the purchasing power of the assets held in state funds, including the state retirement funds and those managed by the state treasurer.

但如果外匯存底疲軟，國家又該如何保障經濟？毫無疑問，過去幾年的通貨膨脹嚴重削弱了國家基金所持有資產的購買力，包括國家退休基金和國家財政部長管理的資產。

The state can not absolve itself of the duty to protect its tax-paying residents by saying that it does not directly control the money supply or create policies that encourage or curb inflation. It has a moral obligation to safeguard its citizens.

國家不能因為不直接控制貨幣供應量或製定鼓勵或抑制通貨膨脹的政策而逃避保護納稅居民的責任。它有保護公民的道德義務。

What does it do then? Well, one asset has consistently delivered value over the past 16 years. With a price hovering around US$90K and a market cap of over US$1.5 trillion, Bitcoin is uniquely positioned as an asset, much different from paper money, that can effectively and sustainably hedge against inflation.

那麼它有什麼作用呢？嗯，一項資產在過去 16 年裡一直在創造價值。比特幣的價格徘徊在 9 萬美元左右，市值超過 1.5 兆美元，作為一種與紙幣截然不同的資產，比特幣的定位非常獨特，可以有效且可持續地對沖通膨。

To build the much-required momentum around this has emerged a grassroots movement: the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve or SBR!

為了圍繞這個問題建立急需的動力，一場草根運動應運而生：比特幣戰略儲備（SBR）！

Bitcoin to Help National Economy Be Robust Again

比特幣幫助國家經濟再次強勁

The ideological call to build a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve came in July-end 2024 from the US senator for Wyoming, Cynthia Lummis. Lummis put forward a proposal to supercharge the U.S. dollar and pay down the national debt by establishing the reserve. The proposal was followed by the introduction of a bill titled BITCOIN Act, an acronym for Boosting Innovation, Technology, and Competitiveness through Optimized Investment Nationwide Act. Lummis, in her proposal, drew attention to the transformative potential of Bitcoin and urged the United States to become the “first developed nation to use Bitcoin as a savings technology (that) secures our position as a global leader in financial innovation.”

2024 年 7 月底，美國懷俄明州參議員辛西婭·盧米斯 (Cynthia Lummis) 發出了建立比特幣戰略儲備的意識形態呼籲。盧米斯提出了透過建立儲備來升值美元並償還國債的建議。該提案之後提出了一項名為《比特幣法案》的法案，該法案是「透過全國優化投資法案促進創新、技術和競爭力」的縮寫。魯米斯在她的提案中提請人們關注比特幣的變革潛力，並敦促美國成為“第一個使用比特幣作為儲蓄技術的發達國家，以確保我們作為金融創新全球領導者的地位。”

She was further quoted saying, “This is our Louisiana Purchase moment that will help us reach the next financial frontier.”

進一步引述她的話說，“這是我們購買路易斯安那州的時刻，將幫助我們達到下一個財務前沿。”

Lummis proposing to add to the US government’s current 200,000 Bitcoin holdings until it reaches one million BTC over the course of five years, according to MicroStrategy’s chairman Michael Saylor, would be the greatest deal of the 21st century.

MicroStrategy 董事長 Michael Saylor 表示，Lummis 提議在五年內增加美國政府目前持有的 20 萬枚比特幣，直到達到 100 萬枚比特幣，這將是 21 世紀最偉大的交易。

Saylor believes, “Bitcoin is manifest destiny for the United States.” In fact, his own company currently boasts the world’s largest Bitcoin Treasury worth about $30 billion, which surpasses the cash holdings of giants like Nike and IBM.

塞勒認為，“比特幣是美國的命運。”事實上，他自己的公司目前擁有全球最大的比特幣金庫，價值約 300 億美元，超過了耐吉和 IBM 等巨頭的現金持有量。

The discussions surrounding creating a strategic Bitcoin reserve aren’t just one-offs, either. This is a new wave that has already taken over El Salvador and Bhutan and is now slowly spreading throughout the US.

圍繞創建比特幣戰略儲備的討論也不僅僅是一次性的。這是一股新浪潮，已經席捲了薩爾瓦多和不丹，現在正在慢慢蔓延到整個美國。

For instance, Pennsylvania recently introduced a new bill, the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve Act, proposing to allow the treasury to hold BTC on its balance sheet. The legislature will further authorize pension funds to include BTC as a store of value. This flexibility in investment strategy will allow both state treasury and pension funds to adapt to the changing economic conditions and take advantage of emerging opportunities, offering better returns and protection against inflation.

例如，賓州最近推出了一項新法案《比特幣戰略儲備法案》，提議允許財政部在其資產負債表上持有比特幣。立法機關將進一步授權退休基金將比特幣作為價值儲存手段。這種投資策略的靈活性將使國庫和退休基金能夠適應不斷變化的經濟狀況並利用新興機會，提供更好的回報並抵禦通貨膨脹。

Lobbyist Dennis Porter, CEO of Satoshi Action Fund, which helped draft the bill, shared on social media that within hours of ‘open-sourcing’ the legislation, “multiple lawmakers and a presidential candidate endorsed the policy and vowed to pass it into law.”

幫助起草該法案的中本聰行動基金首席執行官、遊說者丹尼斯·波特在社交媒體上表示，在該法案“開源”數小時內，“多名立法者和一名總統候選人認可了該政策，並誓言將其通過為法律。

In a separate post, he said that multiple states are expected to introduce such legislation next year, and several state lawmakers have reached out regarding it.

他在另一篇文章中表示，預計多個州將於明年推出此類立法，並且一些州立法者已就此進行了接觸。

Amidst this growing focus on making Bitcoin a strategy reserve asset to secure the nation’s future, an Ethereum-based meme coin, $SBR, has emerged with a total supply of more than 21 million. Its purpose is to raise awareness about the SBR bill and build solid momentum around it.

在人們日益關注使比特幣成為確保國家未來的戰略儲備資產的背景下，一種基於以太坊的模因幣 $SBR 已經出現，總供應量超過 2,100 萬枚。其目的是提高人們對 SBR 法案的認識並圍繞該法案建立堅實的勢頭。

The ground-level support and enthusiasm for the cause are undeniable, reflecting the trust people have in Bitcoin as a store of value and something that can protect people from the risks of inflation and related economic uncertainties.

對此事業的基層支持和熱情是不可否認的，反映了人們對比特幣作為價值儲存手段以及可以保護人們免受通貨膨脹和相關經濟不確定性風險的信任。

Bitcoin has been growing like never before, with the growth visible all around—from publicly traded Bitcoin ETFs to Bitcoin’s growing dominance in DeFi. Keeping this in mind, the SBR movement seeks to harness the asset’s price for the greater good of society.

比特幣一直以前所未有的速度增長，從公開交易的比特幣 ETF 到比特幣在 DeFi 領域日益增長的主導地位，這種增長無處不在。牢記這一點，SBR 運動致力於利用資產價格來實現社會的更大利益。

More specifically, the bill proposes to establish a decentralized network of secure Bitcoin vaults operated by the United States Department of Treasury, with statutory requirements to ensure the highest level of physical and cybersecurity for the nation’s Bitcoin holdings. It also outlines a 1-million-unit Bitcoin purchase program over a set period, aiming to acquire approximately 5% of the total Bitcoin supply—mirroring the size and scope of gold reserves held by the United States.

更具體地說，該法案提議建立一個由美國財政部運營的去中心化安全比特幣金庫網絡，並滿足法定要求，以確保國家持有的比特幣擁有最高水平的實體和網路安全。它還概述了在規定時間內購買 100 萬單位比特幣的計劃，旨在收購比特幣總供應量的約 5%，這反映了美國持有的黃金儲備的規模和範圍。

If the vision of SBR reaches fruition, it will be one of the most fiscally responsible decisions of US policymakers in the recent past.

如果 SBR 的願景得以實現，這將是美國政策制定者近年來最負責任的財務決策之一。
