Mayor Sim Proposes Making Vancouver a ‘Bitcoin-Friendly City’

辛市長提議將溫哥華打造成“比特幣友好城市”

Mayor Ken Sim intends to make Vancouver a “Bitcoin-friendly city” in a motion set to be introduced in early December.

市長 Ken Sim 計劃在 12 月初提出一項動議，將溫哥華打造成「比特幣友好城市」。

In a recent city council meeting, Sim revealed that on December 11, he would introduce a new motion titled “Preserving of the city’s purchasing power through diversification of financial resources: Becoming a Bitcoin-friendly city.”

在最近的一次市議會會議上，Sim 透露，他將在 12 月 11 日提出一項題為「透過金融資源多元化保護城市購買力：成為比特幣友善城市」的新動議。

He didn’t reveal any details about what the motion proposes and has not responded to any media questions. However, local experts believe the mayor wants to channel some of the state’s funds into purchasing BTC as a reserve asset.

他沒有透露有關動議提議的任何細節，也沒有回應任何媒體提問。然而，當地專家認為，市長希望引導部分國家資金購買比特幣作為儲備資產。

This would align with similar proposals made by United States President Donald Trump on the campaign trail to invest billions in BTC as a national reserve asset. Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) has confirmed that she intends to introduce the BITCOIN Act as soon as Trump assumes office, which would allow the U.S. government to hold BTC.

這與美國總統唐納德·川普在競選過程中提出的類似提議一致，即投資數十億美元作為國家儲備資產。懷俄明州共和黨參議員辛西婭·魯米斯 (Cynthia Lummis) 證實，她打算在川普上任後立即推出比特幣法案，允許美國政府持有比特幣。

In Pennsylvania, a state representative recently introduced a similar bill that allows the state to hold BTC as a strategic reserve asset.

在賓州，州代表最近提出了一項類似的法案，允許該州持有比特幣作為戰略儲備資產。

In South America, a Brazilian legislator recently introduced a new legislation that seeks to allocate 5% of the country’s international reserves to digital assets, taking a cue from the United States.

在南美洲，巴西立法者最近提出了一項新立法，尋求將該國國際儲備的 5% 分配給數位資產，並效仿美國。

Beyond reserve asset status, some say Mayor Sim could allow some city hall payments to be made in BTC. Vancouver wouldn’t be the first city in Canada to accept BTC payments. However, all the other local governments only accept BTC on paper; essentially, the payment processor converts the BTC immediately to Canadian dollars, and the city never touches it.

除了儲備資產地位之外，有人表示 Sim 市長可能會允許用 BTC 支付市政廳的部分款項。溫哥華並不是加拿大第一個接受比特幣支付的城市。然而，所有其他地方政府只接受紙本的 BTC；本質上，支付處理商會立即將比特幣兌換成加元，而市政府從不碰它。

As a digital currency, BTC is fundamentally flawed. Its costs have remained prohibitive, and its settlement time is slow, making it impractical for day-to-day payments.

作為一種數位貨幣，BTC 存在根本缺陷。其成本仍然令人望而卻步，而且結算時間很慢，這使得它對於日常支付來說不切實際。

Only a blockchain that scales unboundedly like BSV can deliver Satoshi Nakamoto’s vision of Bitcoin, which was for a “purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash.” Bitcoin is already the fastest blockchain globally, and with the upcoming Teranode upgrade, it will process over a million transactions per second (TPS), making it the only enterprise-ready network in the world.

只有像 BSV 這樣無限擴展的區塊鏈才能實現中本聰的比特幣願景，即「純粹的點對點版本的電子現金」。比特幣已經是全球最快的區塊鏈，隨著即將到來的 Teranode 升級，它將每秒處理超過一百萬筆交易 (TPS)，使其成為世界上唯一的企業級網路。
