堪薩斯州參議員提議退休資金的比特幣暴露

該法案題為《參議院第34號法案》，旨在授權堪薩斯州公共僱員退休系統（KPER）投資於比特幣（BTC）交易所交易基金（ETF）產品的公共僱員退休基金的10％。

A bill has been introduced in Kansas that would allocate a portion of public employee retirement funds to Bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded fund (ETF) products.

堪薩斯州已提出了一項法案，該法案將把部分公共僱員退休資金分配給比特幣（BTC）交易所交易基金（ETF）產品。

The bill, designated as Senate Bill 34, proposes permitting the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System (KPERS) to invest up to 10% of public employee retirement funds in Bitcoin ETFs. If passed, the legislation would establish a KPERS board of trustees to oversee the investments in BTC ETFs.

該法案被指定為參議院第34號法案，建議允許堪薩斯州公共僱員退休系統（KPER）投資於比特幣ETF的公共僱員退休資金的10％。如果通過，立法將建立KPER董事會來監督BTC ETF的投資。

Crucially, the bill specifies that the KPERS board of trustees may allocate funds to Bitcoin ETF products that are issued exclusively by Kansas-based investment firms. It also stipulates that if the value of BTC ETFs exceeds 10% of the retirement fund’s portfolio, the board is not required to sell unless it is in the best interest of the fund’s beneficiaries.

該法案至關重要的是，該法案規定，KPERS董事會可以將資金分配給堪薩斯州投資公司僅發行的比特幣ETF產品。它還規定，如果BTC ETF的價值超過退休基金投資組合的10％，則不需要出售董事會，除非它符合該基金受益人的最大利益。

Furthermore, the legislation mandates the KPERS board of trustees to conduct an annual review of the investment program. The findings from this review must then be presented to the governor for oversight and evaluation.

此外，立法要求KPERS董事會對投資計劃進行年度審查。然後，這項審查的發現必須提交給州長進行監督和評估。

While the bill represents a significant step toward Bitcoin’s mainstream acceptance as a store of value, it must undergo a rigorous legislative process before becoming law. Senate Bill 34 was referred to the Committee on Financial Institutions and Insurance on January 17 and must clear four rounds of approval before being sent to the Kansas House of Representatives.

雖然該法案代表了朝著比特幣作為價值存儲的主流認可邁出的重要一步，但在成為法律之前，它必須經歷嚴格的立法程序。參議院第34號法案於1月17日被轉交給金融機構和保險委員會，必須批准四輪批准，然後再送往堪薩斯州眾議院。

At the House of Representatives, the bill would go through a similar legislative process before reaching the governor’s desk for final approval or veto. If vetoed, the legislation would return to the state legislature, where it would need a two-thirds majority vote in both chambers to override the veto and become law.

在眾議院，該法案將通過類似的立法程序進行，然後到達州長的辦公桌以獲得最終批准或否決。如果否決，該立法將返回州立法機關，在這兩個會議廳中需要三分之二的多數投票才能覆蓋否決權並成為法律。

Senator Bowser’s proposal highlights a significant shift in Kansas’ approach to cryptocurrencies. In 2023, the state’s House of Representatives had introduced a bill that restricted political crypto donations to $100 and mandated the immediate conversion of such donations into USD, prohibiting the holding or spending of cryptocurrency.

鮑澤參議員的提議強調了堪薩斯州的加密貨幣方法發生了重大轉變。 2023年，該州的眾議院提出了一項法案，該法案將政治加密捐贈限制在100美元中，並要求將這種捐款立即轉換為美元，禁止持有或支出加密貨幣。
