El Salvador Abandons BTC付款要求作為$ 1.4B IMF貸款協議的一部分

薩爾瓦多政府急切地通過了其比特幣立法的重大修正案，放棄了公司接受BTC作為一種手段的要求

The Salvadoran government has swiftly passed a major amendment to its bitcoin legislation, abandoning the requirement for companies to accept BTC as a means of payment. This reform comes as part of a $1.4 billion loan agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

薩爾瓦多政府已迅速通過了其比特幣立法的重大修正案，放棄了公司接受BTC作為付款手段的要求。這項改革是與國際貨幣基金組織（IMF）達成14億美元貸款協議的一部分。

The Legislative Assembly of El Salvador adopted the reform by an overwhelming majority of 55 votes to 2, shortly after its presentation by President Nayib Bukele. The new law frees private companies from the obligation to accept bitcoin as a means of payment.

薩爾瓦多的立法會議在由總統納伊布·布克勒（Nayib Bukele）介紹後不久，以25票對2票進行了改革。新法律使私人公司從接受比特幣作為付款手段的義務。

This amendment directly responds to the conditions set by the IMF as part of a $1.4 billion loan agreement concluded in December. The institution required that the Bukele government limit its exposure to bitcoin and make its use optional for merchants.

該修正案直接響應國際貨幣基金組織設定的條件，這是12月終結的14億美元貸款協議的一部分。該機構要求布克勒政府限制其對比特幣的接觸，並為商人提供可選的使用。

For Elisa Rosales, a deputy from the ruling party, this reform aims to sustain the legal status of bitcoin while easing its framework of application. “This reform seeks to maintain bitcoin as legal tender in the country, but at the same time, it aims to adapt to the requirements that are being made by international institutions. In this way, we ensure that bitcoin continues to circulate in the Salvadoran economy,” she stated.

對於執政黨的代表Elisa Rosales來說，這項改革旨在在放鬆其應用框架時維持比特幣的法律地位。 “這項改革旨在將比特幣視為該國的法定貨幣，但與此同時，它旨在適應國際機構所提出的要求。這樣，我們確保比特幣在薩爾瓦多經濟中繼續流通。”她說。

While El Salvador adapts to international requirements, it does not abandon its bitcoin strategy: the country has just added 12 additional BTC to its national reserves.

儘管埃爾·薩爾瓦多（El Salvador）適應了國際要求，但它並沒有放棄其比特幣戰略：該國剛剛在其國家儲備中增加了12個BTC。

According to information from the Bitcoin Office of El Salvador, the country currently holds 6,049 BTC, which is valued at around $633 million. This reserve shows outstanding performance with a profit of 127% on an average purchase price of $46,000.

根據薩爾瓦多比特幣辦公室的信息，該國目前持有6,049 BTC，價值約為6.33億美元。該儲備金顯示出傑出的業績，平均購買價格為46,000美元，利潤為127％。

The Bitcoin Office has confirmed its intention to intensify its acquisitions in 2025. “Our national strategy has proven successful and now serves as a model. We are the first country to adopt Bitcoin and show the world how it can be done. Now, many countries are studying our experience and preparing to follow in our footsteps,” said a spokesperson for the Bitcoin Office.

比特幣辦公室已確認其在2025年加強收購的意圖。“我們的國家戰略已被證明是成功的，現在是一個榜樣。我們是第一個採用比特幣並向世界展示如何完成的國家。現在，許多國家正在研究我們的經驗，並準備跟隨我們的腳步。”比特幣辦公室發言人說。

Ironically, Bob Menendez, the former U.S. senator who had strongly opposed El Salvador's adoption of bitcoin, has been sentenced to 11 years in prison for corruption. The FBI seized $480,000 in cash and $150,000 in gold bars from his home.

具有諷刺意味的是，強烈反對薩爾瓦多采用比特幣的前美國參議員鮑勃·梅倫德斯（Bob Menendez）被判處11年徒刑。聯邦調查局從他的家中沒收了480,000美元的現金和15萬美元的黃金酒吧。

In summary, the first country to adopt bitcoin as legal tender in 2021, El Salvador is demonstrating its ability to adapt its policy while maintaining its role as a pioneer in crypto adoption.

總而言之，薩爾瓦多在2021年第一個採用比特幣作為法定貨幣的國家正在證明其適應其政策的能力，同時保持其作為加密貨幣採用的先驅。
