肯塔基州現在正式是美國最適合比特幣的州

肯塔基州現在正式成為美國最友好的州最友好的州

Kentucky has become the latest U.S. state to enact legislation in support of Bitcoin, Governor Andy Beshear signing House Bill 701, also known as the Bitcoin Rights bill, on March 24.

肯塔基州已於3月24日頒布了支持比特幣，州長安迪·貝什（Andy Beshear）第701號法案（也稱為比特幣權利法案）的最新美國國家。

The legislation, which passed the Kentucky House in a 91-0 vote on February 28 and the Senate by a vote of 37-0 on March 13, aims to safeguard users, miners, and blockchain participants of Bitcoin. It protects against discriminatory control of digital asset holders, ensuring they can keep Bitcoin in self-custody, operate blockchain nodes, and make transactions freely.

該立法在2月28日以91票對0票，參議院以37-0的投票在3月13日以37-0的投票通過，旨在維護比特幣的用戶，礦工和區塊鏈參與者。它可以防止對數字資產持有人的歧視性控制，以確保他們可以將比特幣保持在自我casustody中，操作區塊鏈節點並自由進行交易。

HB 701 ensures that citizens have the right to hold and pass on Bitcoin through their wallets, ultimately aiming to guarantee the fundamental right to own electronic money. It also prevents local authorities from applying discrimination regulations against Bitcoin mining activities unjustly. The bill ensures that staking and mining services will not be defined as securities, providing legal certainty for businesses engaging in these activities within the state.

HB 701確保公民有權通過錢包持有和傳遞比特幣，最終旨在確保擁有電子資金的基本權利。它還防止地方當局不公正地應用歧視法規對比特幣採礦活動。該法案可確保將積分和採礦服務定義為證券，從而為從事這些活動的企業提供法律確定性。

The second significant provision of the bill exempts staking participants and blockchain node operators from money transmitter laws in Kentucky. This change lowers regulatory hurdles for businesses and individuals participating in blockchain activity.

該法案的第二個重要規定豁免了肯塔基州的貨幣發射機法律，將參與者和區塊鏈節點運營商免除。這種變化降低了參加區塊鏈活動的企業和個人的監管障礙。

The bill's passage follows a period of heated debate among lawmakers, particularly regarding the potential risks of investing state funds in volatile cryptocurrencies. Despite this opposition, the bill's swift passage through both chambers and its subsequent signing by the governor highlight the state's interest in blockchain technology and financial modernization.

該法案的通過是在立法者之間進行激烈辯論之後的，特別是關於在波動加密貨幣上投資州資金的潛在風險。儘管有這種反對，但該法案迅速通過了錢伯斯及其隨後的州長簽署，強調了該州對區塊鏈技術和金融現代化的興趣。

The move by the state also comes as several U.S. states are considering similar Bitcoin-friendly policies. Oklahoma and Arizona are working on legislation that would allow state funds to be invested in Bitcoin, with Oklahoma recently passing such a bill. At the federal level, President-elect Donald Trump and Senator Cynthia Lummis have also supported Bitcoin inclusion in federal financial policy.

國家的舉動也是如此，因為美國幾個州正在考慮採用類似的比特幣友好政策。俄克拉荷馬州和亞利桑那州正在製定立法，這將允許州資金投資於比特幣，而俄克拉荷馬州最近通過了這樣的法案。在聯邦一級，當選總統唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）和參議員辛西婭·盧米斯（Cynthia Lummis）也支持比特幣納入聯邦金融政策。

As HB 701 comes into effect, it will serve as a bulwark against excessive regulation and encourage innovation within Kentucky's developing blockchain sector. However, critics of the bill express concerns over the inherent volatility and risk of investments in digital currencies, especially given the pending federal regulation in the cryptocurrency domain.

隨著HB 701生效，它將成為反對過度監管的堡壘，並鼓勵肯塔基州發展中的區塊鏈領域的創新。但是，對該法案的批評者對數字貨幣的固有波動和投資風險表示關注，尤其是考慮到加密貨幣領域的聯邦法規未決的監管。

Despite this dissent, Kentucky's bold move is part of a broader trend toward greater Bitcoin use and protection within state financial markets. While the state legislature session has ended, HB 376, which would create a state-sponsored crypto reserve, is still pending a vote in the House after passing the Senate.

儘管存在這種異議，但肯塔基州的大膽舉動是朝著國家金融市場中更大比特幣使用和保護的更廣泛趨勢的一部分。儘管州議會會議結束了，但HB 376（將創建國家贊助的加密儲備儲備）在通過參議院後仍在眾議院投票。

If passed, it would place Kentucky among the first to count Bitcoin as a treasury asset, allowing the State Investment Commission to invest in Bitcoin and other digital assets with a market capitalization of over $750 billion, up to 10% of surplus funds.

如果通過，它將將肯塔基州列為第一個將比特幣視為財政資產的人，從而使國家投資委員會能夠投資於比特幣和其他數字資產，市值超過7500億美元，佔盈餘資金的10％。
