南達科他州房屋小組殺死了本來可以投資比特幣的比爾

該法案來自R-Aberdeen眾議員Logan Manhart，死於40天立法會議的“第41天”。

A South Dakota House committee voted today to kill a bill that would have permitted the state to invest up to 10 percent in Bitcoin.

南達科他州的一個委員會今天投票決定殺害一項法案，該法案將使該州在比特幣上投資高達10％。

The bill, from Rep. Logan Manhart, R-Aberdeen, died by being sent to the “41st day” of the 40-day legislative session.

該法案來自R-Aberdeen眾議員Logan Manhart，死於40天立法會議的“第41天”。

The bill’s proponents, including Ben Wiener from the South Dakota Blockchain Institute, argued that Bitcoin could serve as a hedge against inflation and had been a better performer than traditional assets.

該法案的支持者，包括南達科他州區塊鏈研究所的本·維納（Ben Wiener），認為比特幣可以作為對沖通貨膨脹的對沖，並且比傳統資產表現更好。

However, State Investment Officer Matt Clark recommended against the bill, calling Bitcoin unsuitable for state funds. He raised questions about the origin and ownership of Bitcoin, saying that “there are too many unanswered questions” to consider it anything more than a speculative asset.

但是，州投資官員馬特·克拉克（Matt Clark）建議對該法案，要求比特幣不適合國家資金。他對比特幣的起源和所有權提出了疑問，他說“沒有解決問題的問題太多”，除了投機資產之外，其他任何東西都無法考慮。

Interestingly, Susan Luschas, who has been investing in Bitcoin since 2017, testified against the bill, calling Bitcoin a ‘Ponzi scheme.’ She said billionaires are looking to get out of Bitcoin and have the federal and state governments pay them so they can invest in land and other assets.

有趣的是，自2017年以來一直投資比特幣的蘇珊·盧卡斯（Susan Luschas）作證說，該法案稱比特幣為“龐氏騙局”。她說，億萬富翁希望擺脫比特幣，並讓聯邦和州政府付款，以便他們可以投資土地和其他資產。

Rep. Steve Duffy, R-Rapid City, explained his ‘No’ vote. He said he didn’t understand it and didn’t want to risk other people’s retirement money.

R-Rapid City的眾議員Steve Duffy解釋了他的“不”投票。他說他不了解它，也不想冒險去冒險他人的退休金。

The committee chair noted that though the bill was lost, the discussion was educational, and the participants learned more about Bitcoin and state investments.

委員會主席指出，儘管該法案丟失了，但討論是教育的，參與者對比特幣和州投資了解了更多。
