美國比特幣儲備：參議員 Cynthia Lummis 提議設立國家加密貨幣儲備庫

參議員 Cynthia Lummis（懷俄明州共和黨）正在帶頭提出建立美國比特幣儲備的提案，引發了關於加密貨幣在國家金融和貨幣政策中的作用的爭論。

In a recent interview with Yahoo Finance, Senator Lummis outlined her ambitious plan to establish a U.S. Bitcoin reserve. The proposal involves the federal government purchasing 200,000 bitcoins annually for five years, amassing a total of one million bitcoins to be held for at least two decades. Lummis emphasized that this reserve could bolster the U.S. dollar and help mitigate the nation’s mounting debt.

在最近接受雅虎財經採訪時，參議員盧米斯概述了她建立美國比特幣儲備的雄心勃勃的計劃。該提案涉及聯邦政府在五年內每年購買 20 萬枚比特幣，總共累積 100 萬枚比特幣並持有至少二十年。盧米斯強調，這項儲備可以提振美元並有助於減輕該國不斷增加的債務。

“Bitcoin is the ideal strategic asset,” Lummis stated. “It’s finite, akin to digital gold, and has proven to grow in value over time despite short-term volatility.”

「比特幣是理想的戰略資產，」魯米斯表示。 “它是有限的，類似於數字黃金，事實證明，儘管存在短期波動，但其價值仍會隨著時間的推移而增長。”

However, pointing to legal restrictions, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell resisted the idea of a Bitcoin reserve. Powell stated at a press conference, “We’re not seeking a law change to accommodate this, and we’re not allowed to own Bitcoin under the Federal Reserve Act.”

然而，聯準會主席鮑威爾以法律限制為由，拒絕了比特幣儲備的想法。鮑威爾在新聞發布會上表示，“我們並不尋求修改法律來適應這一點，而且根據聯邦儲備法，我們不允許擁有比特幣。”

Despite the Federal Reserve's skepticism, supporters argue that a Bitcoin reserve might provide long-term economic benefits. According to Bitwise Asset Management CIO Matt Hougan, a strategic reserve may significantly raise the value of Bitcoin, with a long-term growth potential of $500,000 per Bitcoin.

儘管聯準會持懷疑態度，但支持者認為比特幣儲備可能會帶來長期經濟利益。 Bitwise 資產管理公司 CIO Matt Hougan 表示，策略儲備可能會顯著提高比特幣的價值，每個比特幣的長期成長潛力為 50 萬美元。

The project supports President-elect Donald Trump’s pro-crypto position. Trump has indicated strong support for establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve, describing it as a move to ensure US dominance in the digital asset industry. His administration's plans also include appointing David Sacks as the nation’s “AI and Crypto Czar” and Paul Atkins as Chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

該項目支持當選總統唐納德·川普的支持加密貨幣的立場。川普表示強烈支持建立比特幣戰略儲備，並將其描述為確保美國在數位資產產業主導地位的舉措。他的政府的計劃還包括任命大衛·薩克斯（David Sacks）為國家“人工智能和加密貨幣沙皇”，任命保羅·阿特金斯（Paul Atkins）為證券交易委員會（SEC）主席。

Trump’s vision extends beyond Bitcoin, with plans to integrate AI and blockchain innovations into broader economic strategies. “We don't want China or others to take the lead in crypto,” Trump said in a recent interview.

川普的願景超越了比特幣，並計劃將人工智慧和區塊鏈創新整合到更廣泛的經濟策略中。 「我們不希望中國或其他國家在加密貨幣領域處於領先地位，」川普在最近的一次採訪中表示。

The proposal has not been without criticism. Former Federal Reserve Bank of New York President Bill Dudley labeled the plan a “bad deal” for Americans, highlighting Bitcoin’s notorious volatility and speculative nature.

該提案並非沒有受到批評。紐約聯邦儲備銀行前行長比爾·達德利稱該計劃對美國人來說是“糟糕的交易”，強調了比特幣臭名昭著的波動性和投機性。

Globally, skepticism also looms. European central bankers, including ECB policymaker Olli Rehn, dismissed the notion of Bitcoin as a viable reserve asset. “Cryptos are assets, but they are not currency,” Rehn asserted.

在全球範圍內，質疑聲也隨之而來。包括歐洲央行決策者 Olli Rehn 在內的歐洲央行官員駁斥了比特幣作為可行儲備資產的概念。 「加密貨幣是資產，但它們不是貨幣，」雷恩斷言。

Experts note that funding the proposed Bitcoin reserve could be complex. Barclays analysts suggest that such a program would require Congressional approval, the issuance of new Treasury debt, and potentially reallocating assets from existing reserves, such as gold.

專家指出，為擬議的比特幣儲備提供資金可能很複雜。巴克萊分析師表示，這樣的計畫需要國會批准、發行新的國債，並可能從現有儲備中重新分配資產，例如黃金。

As Congress debates the bill, the crypto market continues to respond. Bitcoin’s price, which recently exceeded $100,000, dipped following Powell’s remarks but remains a focal point for investors betting on its adoption by nation-states.

當國會就該法案進行辯論時，加密貨幣市場繼續做出反應。比特幣的價格最近突破了 10 萬美元，在鮑威爾發表演說後有所下跌，但仍然是押注民族國家採用比特幣的投資者的焦點。

While the idea of a Bitcoin reserve symbolizes a bold shift in U.S. financial strategy, its feasibility and potential benefits remain hotly contested. Whether this proposal becomes a reality or remains an ambitious concept will depend on navigating legislative hurdles, economic implications, and global skepticism.

雖然比特幣儲備的想法像徵著美國金融戰略的大膽轉變，但其可行性和潛在好處仍然存在激烈爭議。該提案是否成為現實或仍然是一個雄心勃勃的概念，將取決於立法障礙、經濟影響和全球懷疑論。
