隨著美國越來越平方對抗中國，一個團體正在努力為亞洲國家（Arkansas Bitcoin Miners）敞開大門。

As the US increasingly squares off against China, one group is fighting to leave open the door to more business from the Asian nation: Arkansas Bitcoin miners.

隨著美國越來越平方對抗中國，一個團體正在努力為亞洲國家的更多業務敞開大門：阿肯色州比特幣礦工。

The Arkansas Cryptomining Association, which represents Bitcoin miners in the Natural State, is accusing Arkansas, its attorney general and the head of its Oil and Gas Commission of unlawfully discriminating against Chinese people and their US partners.

代表自然狀態的比特幣礦工的阿肯色州加密協會指責阿肯色州，其總檢察長，其石油和天然氣委員會負責人非法歧視中國人民及其合作夥伴。

The assertion came in a federal lawsuit filed on March 13 in response to a law Arkansas passed last year as legislators grew concerned about Bitcoin mining’s cybersecurity risk, noise pollution and excessive use of water and electricity.

這一主張是在3月13日提起的聯邦訴訟中，該訴訟應對去年阿肯色州通過的法律，因為立法者越來越擔心比特幣礦業的網絡安全風險，噪聲污染以及過度使用水和電力。

The state legislature, which also expressed worries about an "invasion" of the US by foreign-owned companies, decided to ban any involvement by people on the US State Department’s roster of “countries of particular concern” — a list that includes China — in mining outfits.

該州立法機關也表示擔心外國公司對美國的“入侵”，決定禁止人們參與美國國務院的“特別關注的國家”名單（包括中國在內的清單）。

This measure, which came amid a broader push from Washington to expel foreign-owned crypto mining facilities from the US, also grants municipalities the power to impose restrictions on Bitcoin mines.

這項措施是在華盛頓從美國開除外國加密礦業設施的廣泛推動下，還賦予市政當局對比特幣礦山施加限制的權力。

The Treasury to intervene

干預的財政部

Last year, the US Department of the Treasury, in coordination with the Department of Defense, expanded an existing rule to prevent foreign-owned crypto mining facilities from establishing operations near sensitive military sites.

去年，美國財政部與國防部協調，擴大了現有的規則，以防止外國擁有的加密礦業開採設施在敏感的軍事遺址附近建立運營。

In May, then-President Joseph Biden invoked this rule and directed the MineOne, a Chinese-backed crypto mining firm, to divest its property in close proximity to a US Air Force base in Wyoming.

5月，當時的總統約瑟夫·拜登（Joseph Biden）援引了這一規則，並指示米尼（Mineone）是一家中國支持的加密礦業公司，將其財產與懷俄明州的美國空軍基地近距離剝離。

For his part, former President Donald Trump has presented Bitcoin mining as an important strategic industry and vowed to make the US the “crypto capital of the world.”

就前總統唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）而言，他將比特幣採礦作為一個重要的戰略行業，並誓言使美國成為“世界的加密之都”。

“We want all the remaining Bitcoin to be made in the USA!!!,” Trump wrote on social media last year.

特朗普去年在社交媒體上寫道：“我們希望在美國製造所有剩餘的比特幣！！”

The reality on the ground in Arkansas complicates the picture.

阿肯色州當地的現實使情況變得複雜。

The Arkansas Cryptomining Association represents Bitcoin miners in the Natural State, at least two of which — Jones Eagle and NewRays One — are owned by Chinese-Americans.

阿肯色州的加密協會代表了自然狀態的比特幣礦工，其中至少有兩個 - 瓊斯·伊格（Jones Eagle）和紐格雷（Newrays），由中國裔美國人擁有。
