智庫主席表示辛西亞·魯米斯的比特幣儲備計畫無法解決美國債務危機

United States Senator Cynthia Lummis' plan to set up a Bitcoin strategic reserve will not be enough to solve the country's debt crisis, which has now reached $35 trillion, according to the president of a nonprofit think tank.

美國參議員辛西婭·魯米斯 (Cynthia Lummis) 設立比特幣戰略儲備的計劃不足以解決該國目前已達到 35 萬億美元的債務危機，一家非營利利智庫的主席表示。

“When Senator Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming talks about how a Bitcoin reserve could help us eliminate the federal debt, that's an overselling of what Bitcoin could do,” Avik Roy, president of the Foundation for Research on Equal Opportunity, said on stage at the North American Blockchain Summit 2024 in Dallas, Texas on Nov. 20.

「當懷俄明州參議員辛西婭·盧米斯談論比特幣儲備如何幫助我們消除聯邦債務時，這是對比特幣功能的過度誇大，」平等機會研究基金會主席阿維克·羅伊(Avik Roy)在北方舞台上表示。

A scenario where the US buys an “enormous” amount of Bitcoin ( BTC ) BTC $94,372 that appreciates could help, Roy said, but it won't catch the $35.46 trillion debt that has been rising nearly exponentially since the 1980s.

羅伊表示，美國購買「巨額」比特幣（94,372美元）且升值的情況可能會有所幫助，但它無法彌補自 20 世紀 80 年代以來幾乎呈指數級增長的 35.46 兆美元債務。

But it could ease tension in the bond market, Roy explained.

羅伊解釋說，但這可以緩解債券市場的緊張局勢。

Roy is, however, concerned that such a setup could see the US erode those Bitcoin reserves, similar to how it did with gold in the 1970s.

然而，羅伊擔心這樣的安排可能會導緻美國侵蝕這些比特幣儲備，就像 20 世紀 70 年代對黃金的做法一樣。

Since 1981, US national debt has increased at a compounded annual growth rate of 5.3% from $3.81 trillion to $35.46 trillion, according to US Treasury Fiscal Data.

根據美國財政部財政數據，自1981年以來，美國國債年複合成長率為5.3%，從3.81兆美元增加至35.46兆美元。

Lummis introduced the Bitcoin Act in July for the US government to buy 1 million BTC — roughly 5% of the total supply — and hold it for at least 20 years.

Lummis 在 7 月推出了《比特幣法案》，要求美國政府購買 100 萬個 BTC（約佔總供應量的 5%）並持有至少 20 年。

The Wyoming Senator also called on the US Treasury to convert some of its 8,000 tons of gold holdings — valued at around $448 billion — into the proposed Bitcoin strategic reserve.

這位懷俄明州參議員還呼籲美國財政部將其持有的 8,000 噸黃金（價值約 4,480 億美元）中的一部分轉換為擬議的比特幣戰略儲備。

President-Elect Donald Trump, who will be inaugurated on Jan. 20, also promised to create a national Bitcoin stockpile back in July.

將於 1 月 20 日就職的當選總統唐納德·川普 (Donald Trump) 也承諾在 7 月建立全國比特幣儲備。
