密西根州的 Michcoin 加密貨幣是該州不必要的閃亮幹擾

當我聽說密西根州創建自己的加密貨幣 Michcoin 的想法時，我忍不住揚起了眉毛。

Michigan might soon be getting its own cryptocurrency, called Michcoin.

密西根州可能很快就會推出自己的加密貨幣，稱為 Michcoin。

The state government is considering backing the cryptocurrency with gold and silver, and it could be used for everyday transactions or even taxes in Detroit.

州政府正在考慮用黃金和白銀支持加密貨幣，它可以用於底特律的日常交易甚至稅收。

But I’m not convinced this is a good idea. Here's why:

但我不相信這是個好主意。原因如下：

Cryptocurrencies are known to be volatile and risky investments, and even Michigan's own government advises residents to be cautious when investing in cryptocurrencies. So, why would the state itself be planning to create its own cryptocurrency?

眾所周知，加密貨幣是一種波動性大、風險較大的投資，就連密西根州政府也建議居民在投資加密貨幣時保持謹慎。那麼，為什麼國家本身要計畫創建自己的加密貨幣呢？

Setting up a secure storage facility for gold and silver to back the cryptocurrency would also be very expensive and complicated. Where would that money be coming from? Most likely, Michigan taxpayers.

為黃金和白銀建立一個安全的儲存設施來支援加密貨幣也將非常昂貴和複雜。這筆錢從哪裡來？最有可能的是密西根州的納稅人。

Finally, Michigan already dabbles in cryptocurrency investments and Detroit is planning to accept crypto for taxes. That's enough experimenting for now. Proposing a state-backed cryptocurrency feels like adding layers of risk to an already complex financial landscape.

最後，密西根州已經涉足加密貨幣投資，底特律正計劃接受加密貨幣納稅。現在的實驗就夠了。提出一種由國家支持的加密貨幣感覺就像是為本已複雜的金融格局增加了層層風險。

At the end of the day, Michcoin might sound like an innovative idea, but to me, it feels more like a shiny distraction. Before the state invests our resources in this venture, shouldn't we focus on proven, reliable ways to improve Michigan’s economy? Sometimes, sticking with what works is the wiser choice.

歸根結底，米奇幣聽起來可能是一個創新的想法，但對我來說，它感覺更像是一種閃亮的干擾。在州政府將我們的資源投入這項事業之前，我們難道不應該專注於經過驗證的、可靠的方法來改善密西根州的經濟嗎？有時，堅持有效的做法是更明智的選擇。
