IMF在其更新的付款手冊（BPM7）中正式包括比特幣和其他虛擬貨幣

國際貨幣基金組織（IMF）正式將比特幣和其他虛擬貨幣包括在其新更新的付款手冊（BPM7）中

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has officially included Bitcoin (BTC) and other virtual currencies in its newly updated Balance of Payments Manual (BPM7).

國際貨幣基金組織（IMF）已正式包括比特幣（BTC）和其他虛擬貨幣的新更新付款手冊（BPM7）。

This adjustment, made after seven years of deliberation with nations around the world, marks a significant step toward the global acceptance of virtual currencies.

經過七年與世界各國的審議後進行的這種調整標誌著朝著全球接受虛擬貨幣邁出的重要一步。

The move follows a broader recognition from global institutions of the expanding reach of cryptocurrencies. What began as an experiment in 2009 has blossomed into a multi-trillion-dollar market, piquing the interest of governments and financial institutions worldwide.

此舉是從全球機構對加密貨幣不斷擴展的範圍進行了更廣泛的認可之後。最初從2009年開始的實驗已經發展到了一個千萬億美元的市場，激發了全球政府和金融機構的利益。

The Trump administration's recent efforts to promote the use of blockchain, such as its intention to merge USAID with blockchain technology and create a crypto reserve, have further catalyzed institutional interest.

特朗普政府最近為促進區塊鏈使用的努力，例如打算將美國國際開發署與區塊鏈技術合併並創建加密保護區，進一步促進了機構利益。

IMF Establishes Crypto Reporting Standards Globally

Cryptocurrencies are sub-categorized into fungible and non-fungible assets. Authorities will treat Bitcoin and other tokens with no offsetting liability as capital assets, whereas they include reserve-backed stablecoins under financial instruments.

加密貨幣被分類為可及格和無牙的資產。當局將對比特幣和其他令牌對待，而沒有抵消責任作為資本資產，而在金融工具下包括儲備支持的穩定股。

Moreover, they now treat staking rewards for crypto investors as equivalent to equity dividends, further cementing the increasing similarities between digital and traditional finance.

此外，他們現在將加密投資者的積分獎勵視為等同於股票股息，進一步鞏固了數字和傳統金融之間日益增長的相似之處。

The IMF also responds to staking rewards and blockchain validation services under its revised structure. Authorities can now accord rewards derived from staking functions equivalent treatment to dividends on equity, based on the size and intent behind the investor stake. They will also classify blockchain validation activities like staking and mining under production services, including them in export and import figures for computer services.

國際貨幣基金組織還響應其修訂結構下的Staging Rewards和區塊鏈驗證服務。現在，當局可以根據投資者股份的規模和意圖，從現有功能等效待遇中獲得的獎勵來獲得股息。他們還將對區塊鏈驗證活動進行分類，例如在生產服務下進行陳設和採礦，包括用於計算機服務的出口和進口數字。

Crafted in close consultation with more than 160 countries, the BPM7 guide is an evolution towards standardization in the handling of digital assets under macroeconomic reporting. Though each jurisdiction will implement the policy independently, the IMF has identified cryptocurrencies as capital assets and financial instruments, reflecting their growing significance in the international economy.

BPM7指南在與160多個國家 /地區的密切協商期間製作，是在宏觀經濟報告下處理數字資產的標準化的發展。儘管每個司法管轄區都將獨立執行該政策，但國際貨幣基金組織已將加密貨幣確定為資本資產和金融工具，這反映了它們在國際經濟中的重要意義。

The move provides a blueprint for nations that want to classify cryptocurrencies. While governments struggle to make good policy on digital currency, this new classification can be used as a guide to regulate in the future. Nations that have been behind in accepting crypto’s legitimacy might now have a blueprint to use.

此舉為想要對加密貨幣進行分類的國家提供了藍圖。儘管政府努力製定良好的數字貨幣政策，但這種新分類可以用作未來規範的指南。在接受加密合法性方面落後的國家現在可能會使用藍圖。

The inclusion of Bitcoin in BPM7 is a change in the mindset of cryptocurrencies by global financial institutions. As the regulations are changing, IMF’s recognition can contribute to higher adoption, institutional investment, and mainstream acceptance of digital assets across the globe.

BPM7中包含比特幣是全球金融機構的加密貨幣心態的變化。隨著法規的變化，國際貨幣基金組織的認可可以有助於更高的採用，機構投資以及對全球數字資產的主流接受。
