El Salvador修改比特幣法，以使加密貨幣採用可選，弓箭到IMF

埃爾·薩爾瓦多（El Salvador）修改了其比特幣法，以使加密貨幣採用可選，並屈服於國際貨幣基金組織（IMF）的壓力。

El Salvador has amended its Bitcoin law to make cryptocurrency adoption optional, following pressure from the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

埃爾·薩爾瓦多（El Salvador）修改了其比特幣法，以在國際貨幣基金（IMF）的壓力下進行加密貨幣採用。

The country’s Congress passed the new law on Wednesday, following a request from President Nayib Bukele.

在納伊布·布克利（Nayib Bukele）總統的要求下，該國國會於週三通過了新法律。

El Salvador passed a law in 2021 recognizing Bitcoin as legal tender alongside the U.S. dollar, a move that Bukele pushed into law and touted as a move toward financial inclusion and economic growth. However, the expected boom in Bitcoin adoption never materialized.

埃爾·薩爾瓦多（El Salvador）於2021年通過了一項法律，承認比特幣與美元並駕齊驅，這一舉動被納入法律，並吹捧為朝著金融包容和經濟增長邁進。但是，比特幣採用的預期繁榮從未實現。

Local adoption, however, remains dismal, with only 7.5% of the local population using the asset daily, according to a report by Reuters. A government-run Chivo wallet that was supposed to be the primary mechanism for handling Bitcoin transactions overwhelmed the market.

但是，根據路透社的一份報告，當地採用率仍然令人沮喪，只有7.5％的當地人民每天使用資產。政府經營的Chivo錢包本來應該是處理比特幣交易的主要機制，使市場不堪重負。

The IMF, however, which agreed to lend El Salvador $1.4 billion in December 2024, recommended that Bitcoin be voluntary for private-sector transactions. This advice prompted the recent amendment to the Bitcoin law, allowing businesses and individuals to choose whether or not to accept Bitcoin as payment.

但是，IMF在2024年12月同意向El Salvador貸款14億美元，建議比特幣自願進行私營部門交易。該建議促使最近對比特幣法律進行了修正，允許企業和個人選擇是否接受比特幣作為付款。

Congress approved the law, with 55 votes in favor and just two against. Ruling party lawmaker Elisa Rosales described the reform as necessary to ensure Bitcoin’s “permanence as legal tender” while improving its “practical implementation” in the country.

國會以55票贊成，只有兩票反對這項法律。執政黨議員Elisa Rosales將這項改革描述為確保比特幣在改善其在該國的“實際實施”的同時確保比特幣的“永久性”。

El Salvador’s Continued Bitcoin Purchases

Despite the shift in policy concerning Bitcoin acceptance, El Salvador remains committed to expanding its Bitcoin reserves. On January 19, the country’s National Bitcoin Office announced the purchase of 11 BTC, worth over $1 million, for its Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.

儘管關於比特幣接受的政策發生了變化，但薩爾瓦多仍致力於擴大其比特幣儲備。 1月19日，該國國家比特幣辦公室宣布購買11個BTC，價值超過100萬美元，其戰略性比特幣儲備。

This followed a similar purchase of 1 BTC on January 20 for $106,000. Based on the current price of Bitcoin, El Salvador currently holds 6,049 BTC, which is valued at approximately $636 million.

這是在1月20日以106,000美元的價格購買了1 BTC的類似購買。根據當前比特幣的價格，埃爾·薩爾瓦多目前持有6,049 BTC，價值約為6.36億美元。

During the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading at $105,229.07, with an increase of 2.59% over the previous day. Additionally, the market cap has risen to $2.08 trillion, an increase of 2.58% over the same period.
